Designer Jessica Chang collaborates with Timberland on the "Year of the Rabbit" collection
Taiwanese sustainable fashion designer Jessica Chang earned the opportunity to collaborate with Timberland® on their "Year of the Rabbit" collection after winning the 2021 edition of the Redress Design Award. Jessica joined the Timberland® design team in China, working remotely with them for the exciting capsule collection grounded in sustainable design. During this process, she received valuable mentorship from VF Corporation’s Sustainability and Responsibility team.
“I learned that with Timberland’s farming methods, the soil is rich with nutrients even after tilling and harvest, benefitting animal life surrounding the ecosystem and the environment. This brings forth the most needed change in our supply chain”
Jessica’s two-in-one jacket design features a workwear-inspired inner jacket and an all-over printed vest. The pieces can be worn together or detached to mix and match with other parts, offering a versatile, all-gender design with longevity in mind for consumers. Her ‘Year of the Rabbit’ jacket features the comfort of organically grown cotton. The collection is now available for sale in selected stores globally.
