“Fried Rice is a perfect representation of New York City’s Lower East Side,” she says. “It’s also representative of what I want to do. “As a self-taught artist like me without being recognized, supported, encouraged, or helped, there’s no freaking way. I want to give back. I want to build a community. This is a community where we can attract people from all over the world to celebrate diversity and different artists’ cultural backgrounds…so what can be better than Fried Rice?”
Wang has a wide range of clothes that fit most body types not only for style, but made for comfort as well. She is most known for her multi-pocketed, wide leg cargo pants. They often include adjustable and removable straps, pull ties for fit adjustment and lots of pockets. She also specializes in mixed pattern, colorblock garments such as stripes, grids and camo, and even funky hats.
Fried Rice has recently reached new heights. Over the past couple of years, Fried Rice has participated at New York Men’s Day during New York Fashion Week, the MADE x PayPal runway show at Brooklyn Bridge Park, hosted a panel for Hypebeast and UPS, a vendor at ComplexCon, and has had her clothes worn by Kendrick Lamar and Dave East. Wang also dropped her Spring/Summer 2023 collection, and plans to drop another summer collection later in the season.
