London Fashion Week AW25 witnessed an electrifying showcase of innovation, craftsmanship, and sustainability, as four trailblazing Hong Kong designers unveiled their latest collections under the prestigious Fashion Hong Kong initiative. Hosted at the iconic Protein Studios in Shoreditch, this highly anticipated return of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) to London Fashion Week marked a celebration of cutting-edge design and cultural storytelling.
Angus Tsui, a champion of sustainable luxury presented a collection that seamlessly blends eco-conscious craftsmanship with avant-garde aesthetics. Through his ANCares initiative, Tsui continues to push the boundaries of ethical fashion, reimagining discarded materials into striking, futuristic silhouettes. His latest designs, featuring upcycled textiles and sculptural tailoring, were reminiscent of the exoskeletal and futuristic inspiration of Iris Van Herpen with sartorial excellence and innovation.
Bettie, of Bettie Haute Couture, a former Alexander McQueen designer and University of the Arts London graduate, captivated audiences with her collection, Bauhaus Reverie: Contemporary Elegance, a masterful fusion of architectural precision and timeless minimalism. Bettie has mastered the artistry of British tailoring and craftsmanship and merges this with eastern influences. Inspired by the Bauhaus movement, Bettie’s designs showcased geometric patterns, earthy tones, and sustainable materials like recycled wool and organic cotton. With an emphasis on zero-waste pattern cutting, her structured trench coats and gender-neutral knitwear highlighted a sophisticated yet eco-conscious approach to modern fashion.
Rickyy Wong’s ODYSSEY collection embodied the energy and dynamism of city life, blending Eastern and Western influences with bold, contemporary silhouettes. Utilising innovative textiles such as waxed cotton and fulled wool, Wong delivered an urban aesthetic that bridges traditional craftsmanship with modern versatility. His signature structured bomber jackets and impeccably tailored blazers captivated fashion-forward audiences, reinforcing his reputation as a designer who redefines metropolitan style.
Avant-garde label Z I D I presented Flux, an exploration of time, technology, and transformation. With bold asymmetric silhouettes, optical illusions, and glitched aesthetics, the collection blurred the lines between fashion and digital art. Sustainable craftsmanship remained at its core, featuring biodegradable moulding materials, upcycled leather, and eco-conscious fabrics. Founder Nathan Moy’s visionary approach to design captivated attendees, making Flux a standout moment at London Fashion Week.
