Chinese designer Jun Zhou completed two menswear master's programmes — first at Istituto Marangoni Milan in 2013, then at London College of Fashion in 2015 — collaborating with Ermenegildo Zegna during his Italian studies and winning Audi Star Creation in 2014. In 2016 he co-founded Pronounce in Milan and Shanghai with partner Yushan Li, building a brand that fuses Western tailoring with Chinese craft, dyeing and embroidery to produce a genderless modern menswear language. Pronounce became the first Chinese designer label invited to show at Pitti Uomo in 2019, and Zhou twice appeared on Forbes 30 Under 30. He continues to co-lead the main line and the more experimental Pronounce Studio capsule.
