I don't think it's so much about skill or talent. The artists are there. They can obvious make things. It seems more like just exposure and breaking out of Chinese market to get into your/our us & european culture.
There are some luxury Chinese fashion brands but like I commented below I don't think any that would be known by anyone who isn't reading WWD or vogue and spending $2k on a trendy dress.
I think the scale of their market in country is more than we assume though.
Like I remember that Rihana giant pizza fur dress thing. The designer who made it was on some show maybe Vice I can't remember - it was pretty cool she has a huge business making extremely lavishly large furs that aren't really worn in 'the west' anymore, very much a Chinese cultural niche.
