Chinese New Year Limited Edition

Artistic collaboration Hennessy × Shuting Qiu

2025 | China & Worldwide Travel Retail | Spirits
About the Collaboration

A fusion of fashion and luxury

In a fusion of fashion and luxury, the ‘Reimagination’ collection celebrates the snake as a symbol of renewal and transformation. The collaboration, with the fashion design Shuting Qin, brings three distinct carafe designs for Hennessy VSOP, X.O and Paradis, each infused with vibrant jacquard-inspired patterns, floral motifs and abstract snake scales. A couture double-sided tapestry artwork completes the collection.

This collaboration unites the heritage of Hennessy with Shuting Qiu’s modern romantic fashion language. The snake, emblematic of renewal, flows across the bottles through vivid textile-inspired graphics. It bridges tradition, fashion and the celebratory spirit of the Lunar New Year.

Inspired by the symbolism of the snake, and by the textures of jacquards, brocades and embroideries, Qiu created designs echoing movement, transformation and rebirth.

"The Hennessy carafes are classics, as in fashion, where every brand has classic silhouettes, unique designs, and colors."

About the artist

Shuting Qiu

Her eponymous brand, SHUTING QIU conveys a signature sense of femininity that features a “modern romantic” woman, powerful and independent while maintaining her soft identity. The SHUTING QIU woman dares to express herself with asymmetry and experimentation in silhouettes, often resulting in rich contrasting colors of silk jacquards, intricate embroideries, and juxtapositions of linear and floral prints.

Currently based in Shanghai, the Chinese-born designer constantly finds inspiration in art, literature, cinema and travel. Shuting’s creations pay homage to the free, romantic and neurotic spirit of heroines such as Virginia Woolf and Pina Bausch.
