Launched in April 2025, flowers bloomed in joy with the arrival of spring. That season, Lee partnered with renowned artist Ruohan Wang to present a new collaboration.
Merging bold floral motifs with the spirit of femininity, the collection inspired confidence and self-love in every aspect. It encouraged women to embrace their unique style and discover their own moment to bloom together with Lee that spring.
Ruohan Wang, a Chinese-born artist and illustrator based in Berlin, was known for her bold use of color and unique designs. She created a whimsical and imaginative world incorporating feminine power and natural beauty.
In collaboration with Ruohan Wang, Lee introduced a vibrant collection that seamlessly combined distinctive floral paintings, vivid hues, and retro-inspired styles. More than just fashion, this collection embodied a message of optimism and positivity, paying tribute to the blossoming spirit of spring and the celebration of self-love.
Ruohan had created a series of exclusive illustrations and effortlessly integrated them into this collaboration. One standout design, “Entering the Rose Garden,” captured the essence of spring in full bloom, with roses symbolizing vitality and inviting every woman to explore this flourishing garden.
Another artwork featured Ruohan’s self-portrait wearing a red cap, embodying confidence and independence, representing a new generation of women daring to express their true selves.
Each piece in the collection came with a uniquely designed tag that also functioned as a sticker, combining playful creativity with artistic elegance. Dungarees and skorts were accented by exclusive detachable 3D floral pins, allowing wearers to express themselves freely.
Back pockets were adorned with flashers, patches, and two-layer woven labels. Together, they showcased Ruohan’s signature bold colors and daring designs, brimming with youthful charm and energy.
The oversized denim jacket made a bold statement with floral embroidery on the back, blending Lee’s iconic Rider design with Ruohan Wang’s imaginative artistry. The floral motif rose gracefully above the hem, where Ruohan’s signature anchored the piece in personal expression.
Playful pastel hardware accents, from buttons to stitching, infused a refreshing springtime twist into the timeless denim silhouette. Wearers styled it with either the 428 wide-leg jeans or 429 straight-leg jeans for an effortlessly expressive ensemble that brought artistic flair to springtime style and turned heads wherever they went.
The cropped short-sleeve T-shirt, with a self-portrait graphic from the collaboration, came in a fitted, waist-accentuating cut. Available in a black and white palette, this versatile piece was a chic essential for spring wardrobes.
Paired with the 429 straight-leg jeans in a chic light blue wash, featuring Ruohan’s signature floral graphic on the back pocket, a stylish rip detail on the right leg, and a seasonal leather patch, it added a subtle finishing touch perfect for an effortlessly laid-back yet edgy vibe.

This stylish piece, available in black and white colorways, was easy to mix and match. Whether worn alone or layered with outerwear, it brought an artistic touch to any look.
The seasonal pink cropped cotton jacket, highlighted with contrasting pastel blue buttons, exuded youthful charm. A standout piece on its own, it also paired perfectly with the matching pink skort from the collection, making it simple to create a playful spring outfit.
To welcome spring, the collection introduced a sleeveless wide-leg denim dungaree. Featuring floral laser prints on both legs and a classic mid-dark blue wash, it was accented with a 3D floral pin for added charm.
