On September 7th, 2024, at 2:00 pm, within the hallowed walls of St. Bartholomew church, Bad Binch TONGTONG will unveil a collection that transcends the earth and pierces the stars.
In this sacred space, where the divine meets the mortal, celestial beings descend to our world. These beings, alien to our ways, speak in tongues that elude our understanding. Yet, they grasp our languages, and through the grace of body language, they seek to connect with us, to bridge the chasm between their world and ours.
The aliens, delicate as the breath of the cosmos, must shield themselves with shimmering air membranes, protecting their ethereal forms from the harshness of our atmosphere—from the oxidizing air and the radiation that threatens their very existence.
Despite these dangers, they come forth, not in fear, but with a powerful message—a message of love, of the essential need for space, and of the silent, profound connections that bind all beings across the universe.

As they move through the church, their every gesture becomes a language of its own—a language that speaks straight to the soul.
For designer Terrence Zhou, the show is not just a display of fashion but a sacred communion, a place where we can feel the presence of higher beings, where the dimensions overlap, and where LOVE is the only TRUTH that matters.
This collection is a testament to the power of silence, movement, and the spaces we create for each other.
It is a reminder that even in our differences, we are all part of a larger, cosmic dance.
Your presence in this space, where fashion becomes a portal to the divine, is crucial. Every step, every sway, is a whisper from the stars.
Here, in the heart of New York, we INVITE you to CONNECT, FEEL, and COMMUNICATE with the higher dimensions—where LOVE transcends all boundaries in its purest form.
On the 7th of this month, as Saturn prepares to return, the creator takes a moment to rest and witness his creation on a Saturday.
