Since 2013 Fashion Farm Foundation (FFF) has been organizing HKFG bringing a spotlight on Hong Kong designers at Paris Fashion Week.While the global pandemic has reshaped the fashion landscape into the new digital era, HKFG was creative in their approach by hosting a screening event in Paris, adjacent to all government protocols, for industry insiders based in the city. For the wider international fashion community, they could experience the film premiere of PONDER.ER and THE WORLD IS YOUR OYSTER on the official calendar of Paris Fashion Week selected by the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode.
Stylists, journalists, photographers, and buyers in Paris visited the two-day installation. The new normal brought on from the global pandemic was also reflected in both FW21 collections. For PONDER.ER the pandemic was a time to rethink on the environment front and explore sustainable practices. At THE WORLD IS YOUR OYSTER, took a journey inwards and reflected on the overlooked space at home.
It was clear, that in order for fashion to move forward into the new era, we need to pause and look around us first. While we enjoyed the homegrown Hong Kong talent in Paris this season, we are looking forward to the day when the physical and digital worlds in fashion will merge in person again.
