I am quite sure the firm is notable. But the article seems to be very highly promotional, with multiple adjectives and sentences and paragraphs) of praise and puffery. I think it is beyond fixing by editing, and would need to be started over. DGG ( talk ) 08:12, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

- Comment - I saw this while populating the List of fashion designers and while I did add her, I shuddered. I agree that it is probably notable, but DOES need to be strafed with fire and recreated properly. Mabalu ( talk) 16:19, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
- Keep - Following a quick hacking out of all the repetition/blaffle/promo, and reorganising it, I think there's a lot of material here to show notability. The references will need to be double checked and verified, but sources such as the first one, with its extensive commentary on the brand and the designs, are REALLY strong and a cut above what you usually get.

- Keep - Forbes calls it one of the most successful Taiwanese luxury brands, and its founder one of the 25 most influential ethnic Chinese designers worldwide. The article has lots of problems, but they can be fixed without resorting to deletion. - Zanhe ( talk) 13:43, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
