Hi, I’m Wei Kuo, founder and designer of the brand INF. I started the brand before graduating from Shih Chien University, and since then, I've spent the past 14 years growing it in the fashion industry. INF has had the privilege of showcasing collections at both New York and London Fashion Weeks and consistently presenting runway shows at Taipei Fashion Week for the past five years. During the pandemic, two of our concept films debuted at New York Fashion Week and went on to win multiple awards at international film festivals. One of the most memorable moments was collaborating with actress Shu-Fang Chen on a short film exploring LGBTQ+ themes, which earned the Gold Award at Germany's Female Voices Film Festival. Seeing the comment “This is what I want to see from Fashion Week” from an overseas viewer really validated the direction we’re pursuing—one where fashion, storytelling, and social impact intersect.

Beyond the runway, INF became the first Taiwanese independent brand recognized as one of the global Top 500 on NJAL (Not Just a Label), with our designs available on their platform. We even had the honor of presenting a large-scale fashion show at Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, attracting 1,300 guests—a milestone for Taiwanese fashion. My hope is to continue growing alongside the brand, contribute to the local fashion scene, and create more job opportunities within the industry.
