latest fashion in hong kong features

This year, the Honk Kong Fashion Week was all about glittery off shoulder necklines and ruffles with predominant looks. For ruffles, it was more like a dance and bounce session around the necklines of sashaying models.

The Hong Kong Fashion Week is held twice a year and it is attended by a number of famous designers who like to showcase their collection. The recent show that was held from July 5th to 8th was all about creation of Greek goddesses like dresses and skirts that pouted volumes of intricate artwork.

Espen Salberg – a Norwegian based designer joined the fashion week, to show off jersey fabric and minimalistic looks that hugged the body. Salberg’s collection hinted of his previous works with professional dancers that used to wear his dresses, gowns, skirts and stylishly fitted harem pants.

Another designer – Ali Charisma took his inspirational themes from urban and casual wear. All his fabrics were a mix of hard and soft – think of coupling yoga with work and you’ll get the idea. Most of Charisma’s looks divinely highlighted the combination of leather with chiffon and silk, with strong feminine look to it.

Last but not the least, the audience was wooed by the regular-on-runway collection of Ika – the Indonesian designer, who lies in Hong Kong now. Her work was known for spliced fabric and geometric designs that add to the color and grace of any project she works on. Ika was heavily applauded for showcasing her Spring – Summer 2011 collection, which mainly encompassed blue, black and white, maroon and pink dresses and tops.

The Hong Kong Fashion Week for Spring/Summer 2010, one of Asia’s largest fashion events, took place at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center recently.

Running from the 6th to the 9th of July, this annual event is a meeting point for designers and manufacturers from all parts of Asia where they can show off their latest inventions and ideas.

The event itself was organized by Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center where buyers and sellers in the fashion industry can showcase upcoming trends in the industry.

Is it the in-demand apparel of a modern day Cult leader? Or is it in fact a tribute to Phantom of the Opera? Whatever the case, this loose fitting outfit with the never-ending sleeves is possibly best suited for Halloween.

It appears to be an earnest way to combine one’s two favorite pastimes – bird watching and kit flying. Hence, the kite-like jacket that wins over like-minded hobbyists and fake bird that attracts confused birds.

And, as the finishing touch, the designer has created a decorative mouth piece for presumably gagging purposes.

This is another unintentional tribute to a cult classic. The gooey round bits colored in blood red can only be a homage to The Blob. A more macabre interpretation would be a gory translation of a head-first birth.

With this creation, the traffic guards ushering in planes will not be underrepresented anymore. That would be the only logical explanation for an outfit that couples elbow paddles with a vest made of tassels.
