2014 Hong Kong Fur Gala
Showcases Fur Nation concept through ‘Fur by HK’
Today’s 2014 Fur Gala demonstrated the epitome of fur fashion, further inspiring local and international designers to discover the versatility and elegance of fur as an ideal clothing material. The fashion show was presented under the theme ‘Fur Nation’, and enabled local designers to show off their creativity on the runway and win over the passionate applause of over 2,000 attendees.
The Fur Gala, featured on the first night of the annual Hong Kong International Fur and Fashion Fair organised by the Hong Kong Fur Federation, attracted a total number of 16 famous local furriers to showcase their latest collection. The Gala continues to develop the local industry’s reputation as an international centre of ingenious, high-quality fashion with ‘Fur by Hong Kong’.
To encourage designers to flaunt their original flair, this year’s Fur Gala was presented under the theme ‘Fur Nation’, which was comprised of five scenes: Folkloric, Formation, Fabulously Sporty, Fabulous and Fantasia, used to present exquisite designs from the 16 local furriers. With the aid of music and visual effects, each performance brought the audience a different aspect of ‘Fur Nation’. Each of the fur garments showcased was a feast for the eyes, included short jackets, long coats, capes, sports jackets, skirts, dresses, evening dresses and wedding gowns.
Apart from the splendid Gala, the Hong Kong Fur Federation continues to work with local leading designers on the ‘Designers Love Fur Collection’ with the theme ‘Fur Fantasia’. Eight designers, including Ms. Bonita Cheung, Ms. Lu Lu Cheung, Mr. Arthur Lam, Ms. Hei Lau, Mr. Lo Sing Chin, Ms. Hidy Ng, Mr. William Tang and Mr. Kevin Yeung, collaborated to show off their extraordinary talent.
Hong Kong’s fur fashion design has progressed well beyond international fashion standards, resulting in its leading position. This year, the Federation had invited valuable guests, which include Mr. Vladimir Anatolyevich Kalinin, Consul-General of the Russian Federation; Mr. Christodoulos Margaritis, Consul-General of Greece; Mr. Nurzhan Abdymomunov, Consul-General of Republic of Kazakhstan; and Mrs. Sari Aho, Consul of Finland.
The Hong Kong Fur Gala has always been the most important event in the fur industry, drawing the attention of over 2,000 buyers around the world that crowded the venue. For the first time, furriers from Kazakhstan were also invited to join this year’s prestigious event.
