112 mountainyam is a Hong Kong-based ready-to-wear label founded in 2013 by designer Mountain Yam. In 2025, the brand officially transitioned into eco-national chic, drawing inspiration from Hong Kong’s early republican era of the 1930s. Centered around contemporary Chinese Tang suits, the brand combines functional materials with natural eco-friendly fibers to create a youthful, modern take on traditional Chinese fashion.
