HONG KONG DESIGN INSTITUTE (HKDI)
Department of Fashion & Image Design
NEW FASHION FORCE 2020
While the pandemic has generated a huge impact for all the students worldwide, it has been particularly tough on students studying fashion design, one of the most artisanal disciplines. Since the situation is unprecedented, there are many contingency plans in that connection. Students have to rush back to school for the make up classes when the COVID 19 confirmed cases have trended down to a legit level and other safety measures are in place. With the minimum face-to-face practical classes delivered ever, the 2020 fashion graduating class has been demonstrating their talent, perseverance yet with flexibility and creativity through innovative solutions, most important of all, a high spirit among the students and faculty alike. The Department of Fashion & Image Design, HKDI, will proudly present 68 students’ works for the annual graduation show on 30 Oct 2020, at the FreeSpace, West Kowloon, Hong Kong. A preview of the collection is shown in this fabulous fashion lookbook.
