If you love clothes, shoes and accessories, in one word, fashion, you must go to Hong Kong at least twice a year. For four days, Hong Kong hosts a fashion fair. This event is the second largest fashion event in the world, and the largest one in Asia. The organizer of this event is Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and it is being held at the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre (HKCEC).
Unfortunately, the Fashion Week for this year is over. The fair for fall and winter collection takes place at the beginning of every year, between 12th and 18th of January, and the spring and summer one is between 6th and 12th of July.
The Hong Kong Fashion Week hosts some of the most prestigious designers in the world. For example, in 2009, the event had over 1400 exhibitors from more than 20 countries. This event presents a wide range of what it means fashion: lady, men and babies wear, sport and swimwear, lingerie, evening wear, handbags, shoes, jewelry, buttons, labels, fashion magazines and many more. All these are divided in special product zones, such as Bridal and Evening Wear, Denim Arcade, Handbags Select and so on.
Besides all these, the Fashion Week is giving the chance to attend design exhibitions and business seminars, where world-renowned trend forecasters will unveil the upcoming trends in fashion and lifestyle.
The 45th edition of the Fashion Week in Hong Kong will take place between 13th and 16th of January 2014. Some of the special highlights of this event include the "Fashion Gallery", which will feature high fashion and brand labels, "Garment Mart" and "World of Fashion Accessories", with mass merchandise.
I hope I raised your interest regarding Hong Kong Fashion Week and, if you can’t go to Hong Kong, at least you will know to watch it on TV.
