谭砚之自幼于国际多个城市求学、旅居，切身明白去疆界、无极限的重要性，这也成为华裳杂货的基础能量与方针，透过源源不绝的新探索和设计承续传统衣着美学，以最国际的语言反映最当代的价值。
Mandarin & General is a clothing line founded in New York City by Taiwanese-born designer, Peggy Tan. Fundamentally guided by Tan’s sensitivity for the urban fun and chic, the line finds its inspiration in the heritage of Mandarin-dress making. It cleverly sources, reconsiders, and reinvents constructional tradition and details in Chinese garments that Mandarin & General ultimately translates into fresh and meaningful designs for today.
The clothing and accessories created by Mandarin & General emphasize comfort, simplicity, high functionality and versatility. Each piece is charismatic and stylish, and when combined, they form a timeless wardrobe with endless possibilities. It is Mandarin & General’s philosophy to encourage individual authenticity. It advocates for active interpretation and creation of personal fashion, urging and enabling everyone to freely and bravely harness its collection in to that of her own narrative.
Well traveled and internationally educated, Tan weaves the importance of elimination of boundaries and limits into the vision-driven Mandarin & General. She continues to rediscover and celebrate in her design traditional garment principles that reflect the most contemporary relevance and universal values.
