Tong Hao Lin, the creative force behind emerging label tunggiya, transforms discarded textile scraps into singular handcrafted garments that challenge conventional notions of masculinity and making. Originally from Jilin, China, and drawing from his Manchu heritage, Hao Lin's path from artist management to fashion design was sparked by late-night experiments with fabric remnants and an urgent need to express his own creative vision. His grandmother's resourceful sewing, knitting with recycled yarns, instilled in him the belief that constraint breeds magic, a philosophy that now defines his practice of spinning waste materials into "Reclaimed Yarn." For Hao Lin, tunggiya represents both personal reclamation: the brand name honours his family's original Manchu identity and a broader reimagining of fashion as tender, vulnerable, and alive.
