HONG KONG—Hong Kong Fashion Week was filled with 13 fashion parades that carved out a runway area on the trade-show floor for exhibitors and buyers to glimpse some of the latest styles coming out of Hong Kong, China, Indonesia and other Asian countries.
The Fall/Winter 2018 collections seen at the Jan. 15–18 trade show ran a wide gamut of styles and interpretations. Lacy dresses and evening gowns were front and center, but other designers tried their hand at more avant-garde styles that had boxy looks or crazy styling or were infused with traditional fabrics.
Other fashion events at the show included a trend-forecasting seminar by Michael Leow of Fashion Snoops, which had a standing-room-only crowd to get the latest on the men’s and women’s trends for Spring/Summer 2019.
Other forums and seminars explored sustainability, footwear design, brooch making and growth opportunities in workplace uniforms.
