RIBCAGE IS AN INDEPENDENT COUTURE HOUSE DEDICATED TO CRAFTING AVANT-GARDE FASHION FROM NATURAL LATEX.

ABOUT RIBCAGE

Founded in 2019 in Shanghai by designer Siwei Zheng, Ribcage transcends the traditional contexts of latex through the lens of avant-garde fashion. Taking flesh as the ultimate measure, our bespoke craftsmanship mirrors a profound commitment to every New Eve—to empower her with the ultimate allure to transgress the canon and reconstruct the self.

OUR GENESIS

In the ancient oracle, the Creator cast the primal Eidos from a rib; Ribcage forges new bones for the awakened Eve shattering her cage. The suppleness and tension of latex anchor our couture aesthetics. This immaculate second skin grants her a transcendent artistic identity.

Descend. Clad in this skin, assume the gesture of creation and manifest your true self.

OUR CREW

Operating from our Shanghai atelier, the Ribcage crew unites visionary designers from Central Saint Martins and Parsons with master artisans possessing over 30 years of latex handcrafting expertise.

Rejecting mass production, we remain devoted to pure handcrafted tailoring. Exclusively using premium, 100% renewable Malaysian latex, we create enduring couture built to last.

OUR VANGUARD

Beyond our core collections, Ribcage is deeply rooted in the local avant-garde arts scene, providing bespoke couture and styling for musicals, fashion runways, and Queer shows. Translating our latex aesthetics into theatrical narratives, we champion an inclusive space—empowering performers to unleash their true selves under the spotlight.

“WEARING RIBCAGE IS AN ABSOLUTE, WOMB-LIKE ENVELOPMENT AND SANCTUARY.”
