Born in Indonesia, but raised and educated in Hong Kong and the United Kingdom, Novi has an international perspective on British and Asian culture. Novi began her exploration of handicraft at college, establishing her pioneering point of view at that time. Her passion for crafts began to evolve in a stage of experimentation, at which time she began researching and developing her craftsmanship. After a long period of exploration in handicrafts, she began understanding important details in crafting and recognising the quality differences in materials. In 2016, despite the downturned retail economy, the young craftswoman partnered with Luke, who had a design and business background, to create her first collection utilising high-quality materials and workmanship. Manofatto is inspired by shapes and symbols associated with adornment, architecture, and interior design, offering a contemporary style on made-in-Hong Kong craftsmanship. "I like to create something with my hands, even though the world is chasing after automation and fast turnover. Creating with our hands makes things very personal and allows us to earn more instant gratification when we receive positive reactions to our work as compared to factory mass-produced products. We might not be as well-known as famous brands, but our passion and effort placed into our designs and products will not be less."

I founded Style-Proud to help women re-acquaint with themselves for who they really are so that they can express their authentic selves in confidence. My clients include primarily: 40+ women who wish to reinvent themselves after some kind of transitions such as returning to work, after a divorce or death of a spouse, post -operation, etc... fresh graduates who need help with dressing the part for job interviews, presentation, and improving their executive communication skills Style-Proud is different from other Image Consultancy businesses in that we have 'sustainable fashion' in mind; shopping your own closet and treasure finds in charity shops for missing items are very much part of my work ethics. We encourage using your creativity in building a functional /interesting wardrobe and minimal buying. Style-Proud makes being a stylish woman's life easier and more economical, not to mention the confidence she gets from looking and feeling her best 24/7. I do not believe in achieving the mission doing it alone. I am constantly looking for businesses who share my vision and wish to work in collaboration to promote beauty and fashion with minimal impact on the environment. Please contact me if you are a hair stylist, make-up artist, boutique owner, emerging designer, fashion brand, jewelery maker, or simply someone who wish to host a swap party or trunk show. I look forward to meeting with you for the many business opportunities collaboration might bring.

I am interested to discuss with fashion brands about the possibility of creating signature fine fragrances for your brand, either directly or via a licensing partner. CPL Aromas is an international fragrance house, headquartered in the UK, with manufacturing, sales and creative centres throughout the world, including Hong Kong. CPL's autonomy allows us to be highly creative and flexible.

Having the skill transfer from his mother, not only did Seth Yeung grasp the skills of knitting and patching, but also developed a strong interest in stitching and a close attention to details. Having identified his own strength in knitwear and fur design, he participated in the YDC 2010 with his winning Party and Evening Wear collection “Spread”, an unconventional combination of luxury cashmere, fur and 3D hand beading. He then went on to study at London College of Fashion and got precious chances to collaborate with YSL, Yves Salomon and Roberto Cavalli. In 2012, he built his namesake label, a line of affordable fur and knitwear with a young and edgy touch, targeting forward thinking consumers who are keen to wear experimental design and do the mix and match on their own. Now his collection is on offer at Japan, Australia, Britain and Hong Kong. His upcoming collection at Hong Kong Fashion Week this July is a line of environmentally conscious knitwear denim imitating the washed and indigo effect. Inspired by the construction workers, it is a knitwear interpretation of woven texture featuring raw details.

During her schooling, Sharen Lai already felt excited with anything about ethnic minority. At the YDC 2013, she showcased her contemporary daywear collection “Minority Motion” featuring ethnic culture as the kick-start of her label, t:he dirty little things. Afterwards, she is working on a line of casual wear for her brand targeting customers of her contemporaries. Continuing to infuse ethnic minority essences into intriguing themes, her design comes with a sharp and vivid palette accentuated with fluorescent tones – one of her signatures. t:he dirty little things’ brand new collection at the Hong Kong Fashion Week this summer is about a little girl's adventure in Estonia.

Sophia XinLi, the founder of fluidité, received a Master’s Degree in Architecture from Hunan University, China and then practiced as an architect in Shanghai and Hong Kong for more than 10 years. During the early years of her career, whilst exploring the meaning of design, she witnessed her hometown, Zhuzhou, a typical industrial city, develop into a successful but emotionless concrete metropolis. The loss of the spiritual, emotional background to her childhood memories was deeply felt and so Sophia found her destiny - creating emotion in design. Through her architectural design work and her interest in photography and art, Sophia became fascinated with how form, lighting and texture arouse human emotion - how physical objects can generate an expression of spirit. In 2019, Sophia founded her fashion brand, FORME DE fluidité; a dedicated design business which interprets expression through space and form, to introduce artistic emotion and meaning to everyday life.
