Design with a Taoist Twist ✂️
Founded by designer Min Xiuhua in 1987, Wudang Xiuhua champions the Taoist ideals of simplicity and harmony. Imagine your fave kurta or batik top but with a Wudang spin: ancient cutting techniques for that flowy look, handmade buckles for an artisanal touch, and detailed embroidery featuring cranes (hello, longevity vibes!) or cloud patterns inspired by the Purple Heaven Palace carvings.
