Gioia Pan, with her outstanding design talent, is known as the "Queen of Knitting" and has won the highest honor in Chinese fashion design, the "Golden Top Award". She has also appeared in Tokyo and New York Fashion Week many times. Her 2025 Spring and Summer series "Time and Space Traces" is inspired by natural landforms and stone carving art, and cleverly combines the delicate beauty of paper cutting with the power of historical flow. The series unfolds in the interweaving of time and space, outlining the intersection of the past and the future through distinct textures and colors. The ups and downs of the canyon, the eternity of stone carvings and the fleeting beauty of paper-cuts interweave to create a series of moving time and space silhouettes. These works not only show the infinite possibilities of clothing design, but also convey a unique charm of time travel. Each work incorporates the glory and tragedy of the years, highlighting the profound dialogue between history and modernity.

Designer Gioia Pan has been frequently invited to cross-strait exchanges recently. Not only has she facilitated student designers and models from her alma mater, Fu Jen Catholic University, to participate in fashion events in many places, she has also served as the national chief judge of the knitting competition. During these experiences, she visited many intangible cultural heritage sites and antiques, and felt the artistic charm in the long river of time. A piece of paper-cutting carries the magnificence of Chinese civilization, and a stone sculpture witnesses the changes of time and space. Although fashion trends are constantly changing, art and craftsmanship remain the same, continuing the historical charm and eternal genes, and inspiring the birth of the 2025 Spring and Summer Series.
This Taipei Fashion Week GIOIA PAN Fashion Show will cooperate with the VRSTATE virtual reality platform of Inventec, using Inventec's metaverse technology and virtual designer exhibition hall, integrating surreal 3D virtual scenes and AI precise model movement generation, reflecting the effect of time and space interweaving, combining cultural elements, natural textures and modern fashion design concepts, symbolizing the dialogue and integration of culture and trends, showing digital 3D art effects, and creating a new fashion visual experience of virtual and real coexistence.
AI Generated Content technology has been applied to the eight metaverse scenes of VRSTATE platform, providing users with a more realistic, intelligent and richer immersive experience. Chiu Chaucer, head of Metaverse Technology and Application of Inventec, pointed out that VRSTATE can use core technologies such as AIGC, digital twins and multimodal human-computer interaction to create a metaverse digital economy circle, hoping that everyone will have their own digital space and more innovative applications in the future.

In addition to the series of works that were exhibited in the 2025SS International Fashion Week in Beijing, designer Gioia Pan also revealed that the 2025SS Taipei stage will have Taipei-exclusive styles that will be unveiled for the first time, and the show lineup also invited the very popular professional baseball Weiquan Dragons cheerleader Lin Xiang to lead Li Zhilin and Zhang Yahan to participate, and also invited the new Taiwan light - Paris Olympic gold medal boxer Lin Yuting to appear on the show.
Lin Xiang: "I like to read fashion information and know that Ms. Pan is the "Queen of Knitting". This time, I was very surprised and liked the teacher's works. I didn't expect to have the honor to cooperate with Ms. Pan."
Lin Yuting: "The school uniforms I wore when I was in Fu Jen Catholic University were designed by my senior sister. This time, I came into contact with the works of my senior sister Ms. Pan again. It was really an eye-opener. The design is very special and fashionable. I felt very cool and excited for the first catwalk, but I didn't know how to practice, so I was very nervous about the upcoming catwalk."
Continuing the cooperation show of the previous season, all the shoes on the stage this season are also exclusively provided by CLARKS, a British century-old brand designated by designer Gioia Pan. The exquisite craftsmanship, comfortable technology and textured appearance complement the clothing, presenting a high-end overall show, allowing models and artists to take the most classic and elegant steps.
