Charting A Success Story Like No Other, International Fashion Celebrity And Music Star Jennifer Zhang Takes Over The Music, Beauty, Fashion And Art niches

By: Get News

Asian American artist Jennifer Zhang was invited as a runway model, fashion designer and brand ambassador at the New York Fashion Week 2023. Mesmerizing audiences by showcasing her collection of Chinese Qipao/Cheongsam, she also graced giant solo billboards at New York Times Square. Her story is an inspiring one that trumps adversity and preservation, as well as celebrates diversity and inclusion.

It is wonderful to know about all those amazing women who have been on their own, walking their path to growth, glory, and success in their respective fields. These incredibly talented women have earned a name for themselves for being beautifully gifted individuals and professionals in their niches and making a mark of theirs in the most inspiring way. It is necessary to put more light on the successes and journeys of these women, who believe in questioning the norms set by others in their industries and carving their unique path to success, even amidst massive saturation and competition. To do that in creative and artistic realms like fashion, art, film, and music, etc., has remained an altogether different level of challenge, but it is international stars like Jennifer Zhang who have been making all the difference that people see in these industries today and are making all of this look effortless.

Jennifer Zhang is the one who today stands tall and unique as a one-of-a-kind model, designer, musician, actress, show host, social media influencer, and entrepreneur. Managing so many hats on her head, we asked her if all of this had ever felt heavy on her, to which she replied saying, “Never! I love what I do and feel passionate about all that I have ever chosen to take into my hands. It is like working toward my dreams every day, and so it only motivates me consistently and keeps the fire blazing inside me to do and get better at my craft as a professional.”

This gorgeous beauty has been garnering all the right buzz and recognition, for she was summoned as a runway model, fashion designer and brand ambassador to the New York Fashion Week 2023, enchanting the audiences by showcasing her collection of Chinese Qipao/Cheongsam.

During the New York Fashion Week (February 10th to February 15th, 2023), Jennifer turned heads with huge solo billboards in the center of Times Square. It is estimated that more than 360K pedestrians pass through New York Times Square per day. Showcasing her beautiful self wearing a dazzling array of Chinese-style and American-style evening gowns and fashion wears, made by a variety of fashion designers such as Jennifer herself, this young Asian American star for sure wowed a plethora of on-lookers traveling through this iconic American hub.

Promoting diversity and inclusion, Jennifer started her own clothing brand “Jennifer Zhang” during the pandemic as a fashion designer where she presented her design at various fashion shows. Her company is proud to represent Louis Klein, a rising Qipao company based in San Francisco. For the unversed, Qipao/Cheongsam is beautiful Chinese attire worn by women. They are traditional Chinese form-fitting dresses, which Jennifer has made available to the global stage to gain recognition and affection from audiences worldwide. Louis Klein is an exquisite collection made available by a talented American fashion maker and master photographer, David Louis Klein, from his exclusive digital art, transferred strategically onto premium mulberry silk. As the partner and the global brand ambassador of Louis Klein, Jennifer proudly led a team of twelve other NYFW models and celebrated the beauty of Chinese Qipao at the prestigious New Yorker Hotel during the New York Fashion Week. Together, Jennifer and her team set the stage on fire, on an elevated runway decorated with gorgeous chandeliers in its Crystal Ballroom, where the fashion show was held at 6 p.m. (ET) on February 11th, 2023.

Speaking more about the Qipao, Jennifer said, “It is a staple of beauty, grace, and elegance originated from the East, I am proud to present my cultural heritage and promote it worldwide together with other NYFW runway models from an array of backgrounds. Asians have been historically under-represented or mis-represented in American fashion and pop culture, and I was thrilled to be given the chance to showcase the Qipao from an emerging American fashion brand, embracing the Chinese culture at a world-class event. Thank you New York Fashion Week for this opportunity to celebrate inclusion and diversity.” Jennifer opened the show by walking solo as the first runway model. She wore a stunning blue and yellow striped high split sleeveless full body Qipao which resembles the glorious sunrise on Lake Michigan. She also closed her show together with another NYFW model wearing one of her favorite designs.

As a successful internationally published fashion model, Jennifer has remained a much-talked-about global sensation and has rocked the runways for lots of fashion shows such as Chicago Couture Fashion Week, Fine Arts of Fashion, and Midwest Fashion Week. She has collaborated with giants like Apple, Google, Ferrari, and United Airlines, to name a few.

She was also chosen as the tourism ambassador for the State of Florida and starred in the Visit Florida video series in 2018. She frequently graces magazine covers and has also performed for Vogue’s Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour and supermodel Cindy Crawford, with whom Jennifer shared photos together. Both of the ladies spoke highly of Jennifer's striking beauty and fashion style.

I am proud to travel, work and perform across the globe carrying my duties and responsibilities to bridge the cultural gaps, help people understand each other better, and be more united as a whole,” said this five-time beauty queen.
