Fashion and Home Design
Chen's fashion brand Layefe (a play on his first name) launched in 1998, followed in 2000 by the emergence of Layefe Home, his designer homeware line.
The late artist's original intent in producing and designing a fashion line was to provide affordable but beautiful clothing to his home country. After spending time out of the country and gaining more perspective for his own personal tastes in beauty, Chen noticed a lack of style in his homeland and vouched to remedy the problem by creating a clothing line that embodied his own sense of Western-Eastern fusion. With Layefe he aimed to "provide beautiful and affordable clothing for Chinese women"
Layefe Home has a similar mission in providing beautiful things for the average citizen. Layefe Home offers a variety of kitchenware products and home decorative products that infuse quality with modern style. Although the pieces of this collection have been considered "fairly expensive," they present a unique brand of quality and modernity to the market.
