On March 25, President Jin Weiya led a delegation to Beijing to attend the 2025 China International Fashion Week (Spring), where they witnessed the dedicated fashion show of "SAYAANNO" - an independent brand founded by full-time faculty member Shi Yan. Accompanying the delegation were representatives from the College Office, Organization and Publicity Department, School of Design, as well as some alumni based in Beijing.

President Jin Weiya highly commended the innovative significance demonstrated in this special showcase. She emphasized that "SAYAANNO" not only brilliantly presents Teacher Shi Yan's personal design philosophy, but also serves as a exemplary achievement of the college's deepened educational reform and promotion of industry-academia-research integration, making education a genuine source of vitality for social development.

This marks the third time that "SAYAANNO", the independent brand founded by Shi Yan, has graced the China International Fashion Week. Centered around the theme "Rising Mist Amidst Ruins", the collection explored the impact of modern industry on tradition through fashion design. By bridging divides with creative concepts and simulating the ethereal transformation of smoke through fabric textures, the show conveyed the "aesthetic of negative space", perfectly interpreting the unique charm of "Zhejiang Design".
