Since 2017, Angel has been showing her work on the official Milan Fashion Week calendar. Her designs have also been stocked at more than 100 international retailers including Lane Crawford, NET-A-PORTER, Galeries Lafayette, Selfridges, Luisa Via Roma, and Urban Outfitters.
When creating any collection there are a few things Angel keeps in mind. She makes sure they are full of color because she grew up looking at her dad, a color engineer, sitting in a lab and discovering color his whole life. The second thing she insists in the mix of Eastern and Western cultures and the third one is creating a collection that is somewhat genderless and more contemporary.

A huge advocator for the LGBT community, designer Angel Chen’s relationship status was unknown as of now. Although, it was clear that she had not gotten married yet.
While choosing very clearly to not talk about her dating, Angel did not mind talking about her family though. For instance, she told the fashion magazine L’Officiel USA back in 2021 that when she designs or draws, she always thinks about her family. Because she says they give her so much inspiration, and they also kind of taught her all the way through. In addition to being inspired by her dad, she was also always drawn to her mom’s style sense. She recalled hiding in her closet and stealing her beautiful vintage scarf and wrapping it around her body as a young kid. She said that her grandma too is good at lots of techniques, especially sewing and crocheting, and knitting. It was she who taught Angel to sew her first pair of trousers by cutting off a piece of a curtain.
