The Autumn/Winter collection is influenced by stories of legends, epic travels, local customs and heritage, bridging two worlds from east to west with subtle references to these incorporated into the design and making of each piece.
The bespoke pieces of the collection will showcase the capabilities of the Khangai yak’s rare fibres, using new fabrics developed by some of the UK’s leading technical textile designers, pushing technical innovation and methods in yarns.
We have chosen Vancouver as it’s the fastest-growing fashion week in the world. Moreover, it’s also the only industry event that actively seeks out and showcases international award-winning designers from over 25 global fashion capitals.

RockCorps Tamir River Clean-Up
Tsetserleg, Arkhanghai region, Mongolia
15 August 2014
On 15th August, young RockCorps volunteers gave four hours of their time to help clean up the Tamir River in the Mongolian province of Arkhangai, as a curtain-raiser to the first ever Tsetserleg Festival.
Members of the Tengri collective were among the volunteers, who enjoyed a live performance by Quiza, hip-hop artist and star of the movie Mongolian Bling, at the Tsetserleg Festival, in exchange for their time.
“To inspire young Mongolians to promote our cultural and natural heritage to the world and support the development of our beautiful country is extremely important to me,” said Quiza. “I am delighted to be able to show my support and perform at the festival.”
The festival worked in partnership with RockCorps, whose ethos is “Give, Get Given”. As RockCorps co-founder and CEO Stephen Greene explained: “The Tamir River has a 16km stretch of water that is full of debris. It is such an important source and gateway to the town of Tsetserleg, yet the issue hasn’t been tackled. By using the festival to engage youth in the project, we helped preserve the beautiful environment.”
The Tamir River Clean-Up Project and the Tsetserleg Festival brought together fashion and the preservation of land, animals and nomadic herders’ culture. L. Jambaldorj, Leader of the Arkhanghai Association and Federation of Pasture User Groups, and Nancy Johnston, CEO and Founder of Tengri, jointly conceived the idea.
“By putting volunteering and music at the heart of the platform from the start, Nancy not only created a successful design business in partnership with the yak herders, but also celebrated their work and culture,” added Stephen Greene.
The Tsetserleg Festival and the Tamir River Clean-Up Project, both sponsored by Tengri, will become an annual event, working with local municipal authorities to preserve and protect the river and landscapes from pollution and debris by engaging young volunteers motivated by music.
Tsetserleg Festival 2014: A triumph of community, culture and fashion
Arkhangai region, Mongolia
16 August 2014
The Arkhangai Aimag mountains in Mongolia provided the scenic backdrop for the first ever Tsetserleg Festival on the weekend of August 17-19. Conceived and staged by Tengri, the festival was a celebration of culture and community spirit. The town of Tsetserleg was transformed by decorations, live music, art, food and high-end fashion.
The weekend commenced with a volunteer incentive which saw Tengri join forces with RockCorps, the global volunteer organisation. Festival volunteers travelled to the nearby Tamir River, which has suffered badly from pollution, to begin a clean-up operation. Inspired by the opportunity to see performances by some of Mongolia’s most famous live acts, the volunteers selflessly dedicated eight hours to cleaning up the river.
The following day was a fun-filled day for families, with children's activity workshops, exhibitions and Mongolian musicians, whose performances included combinations of traditional and modern sounds. As the sun set, the steps of the magnificent Buddhist temple at Bulgan-Uul became a catwalk for a spectacular fashion show to showcase the first ever Tengri knitwear collection.
To close the festival, Mongolia’s award-winning hip-hop star Quiza took to the stage. More than 1,500 people, old and young, gathered to see one of the country’s most famous faces light up the evening with a performance that was truly electrifying.
After his performance, Quiza said: “This weekend we made history in Mongolia. Bringing together different people from different backgrounds through music, culture and volunteering, collectively through the festival we were able to put the spotlight on Mongolia and promote its many cultural and natural characteristics to the world.”
Nancy Johnston, founder of the Tsetserleg Festival and the Tengri label, said: “The purpose of the festival was to give support to nomadic herder families in the region by creating an event so inspiring and fun that people not only want to travel there and experience it, but also tell their friends. Actually we went beyond that. Through fashion, music and so much more we connected with people in the local community and touched people interested in social responsibility and environmental activism. Knowing how the Tsetserleg Festival has made such a difference, together with RockCorps, ensures we’ll return next year – and it will be even bigger!”
