"A Bar Without Borders Under The Chaos Of War" by Chen Hao Lin is a menswear collection set against the backdrop of war. This collection delves into the personal stories of each character during this tumultuous period, with each cocktail's flavor symbolizing a secret of the character, such as cherished memories of their family, partner, or childhood.

The concept of the collection seeks to connect with the audience on a deeper level, offering a fresh approach to storytelling in fashion and shedding light on the often overlooked facets of war that the media obscure.

Each gift box presentation includes a cocktail paired with a letter. Each letter explains the natural prints on the clothing, which are inspired by the character's memories. As the audience enjoys the cocktails, they are invited to uncover the symbolic meanings behind the garments, providing a richer, more immersive experience.
