Hi Everyone:

The HKDI Fashion Blog will be going on a break until the beginning of February. Enjoy your holidays and check back in February for more photos and interviews!

Lalaa
Fashion Design and Branding

I love all clothes and shoes from Jeremy Scott.  I love wings because, "I believe I can fly."

Mo
Image Design

Army green is my favorite color.  That's why I bought my cape. I bought my boots from Another.  I like wearing glasses without lenses because it makes me look cool and hides my dark eye circles. I want to be an image stylist in the future. Fashion is my heart. I think a person is always judged by their appearance.

I am always inspired by the people in the street. I bought my hat because it reminded me of the McDonald's Monopoly man. I like wearing glasses because my eyes are small. I have eight pairs of glasses. I bought my boots on sale for $450 from Ice Fire. I think I am too tall so I wear baggy pants to make me look shorter. I want to be an advertisement designer so I can show my creativity.

Ivan
Photography

I like photography because I have studied it before. I would love to be a photojournalist, because I can observe what people are doing around us. I don't want to take pictures about fashion. I just love to wear comfy style.

Chinny
Product Interior Design

I love fashion but I won't study it. In Hong Kong, it's not easy to find a job in fashion.  Any black matches well with leather.  I love my leggings because khaki and black match really well. Leggings make me feel special and they are very popular in Hong Kong. 

JoJo
International Fashion and Business

Fashion shows and magazines always inspire me. Now I care about the Autumn and Spring fashion show. I like to mix and match and I like the colors black, red and white. I like stuff with studs.

Fat Kuk
Film and Television

I just graduated from HKDI. My outfit is bad today because I woke up late and was in a hurry.  I am wearing black to hide my fat. I bought my pants because I thought they were funny. When I was young I wore glasses, so I don't like my look without them.  Now I wear contacts and glasses without lenses. Last year I had really small curls in my hair like Buddha, but now I'm just letting it grow out. 

Ringo
Fashion and Product Development

I love dandy, classic and old-fashion style. I always follow the trends and look at Lookbook for inspiration. I spend most of my money on clothes. Most of what I'm wearing right now is from Initial.

Bee
Fashion Business 

I like garden style.  I look at the magazine Soup for inspiration.

Sum
Fashion Design and Product Development

I like the Japanese vintage look and look at Drop Tokyo for inspiration.  Everyday I dress up depending on my mood. I want to open up a second hand shop and make my own clothes.

Taylor and Smith
Fashion and Product Development

Taylor: The visual band Miyavi inspires my style. I want to be a fashion designer because it will be fun and enjoyable.

Smith: I like reading Elle and watching fashion videos. My favorite designer is William Tam.  Fashion is a way to express style to others.

Sirius
Fashion Merchandise

I like trendy and beautiful things. I bought my jacket at H&M. I like Hong Kong fashion better than Japanese fashion because they layer too much, and Hong Kong style is more simple. I want to be a buyer in the future.

Joey
Fashion Design and Product Development

I like dressing simple and wearing big accessories. I like to keep to only two or three colors for my clothing: white, black and nude tone. Fashion will make people approach you more. I love Vogue and Lookbook.

Vanessa

I love feminine style.  I started dressing like this when I was 13 and saw movies and pictures on the Internet of 19th century and 20th century European style. I want to be a fashion illustrator. I want to be eye catching.

Alex
Style and Photography

I love Japanese graphic design, so I love Japanese fashion style.  I am a freelance graphic designer.  Undercover is my favorite brand.

Chris

I love Japanese style, punk, rock and casual. Lady Gaga is stunning. I want to be a designer and stylist. I studied art and textile last year, and that is when I started looking at different designers. That is why I study design now.

Sue

I like Korean style better than Japanese style because I'm Korean. I want to open an Internet business that sells vintage Korean clothing.  I love casual, chic and simple styles.

Gigi
Fashion Design and Development

My shoes are Vivienne Westwood. I like platform shoes because they are comfortable and make me taller. I love fashion because it makes me happy.

Crystal
Fashion Design and Branding

I like my clothing to have character.  I dye my hair once a month. It is purple now, because I love the color.  I have dyed it red, blue, purple and black.  I love change and want to look different everyday.  My dream job is to be an editor for a high fashion magazine.

Calvin
Fashion Design

I like the designers Martin Margiela and Ann Demeulemeester. I love simple, black style.  I care about the brands and details of clothing. I want to  be a fashion reporter and learn more about how to make clothes.

Ice

I am inspired by the model Agyness Deyn because she mixes and matches really well. Her rock style is really cool. I love elegant, classic and vintage style.  Clothes give me confidence. I can't live without fashion. It's my life.

The magazines Milk, Touch and Vivi inspire me. Mercibeaucoup is my favorite brand. I like to mix playful and formal clothes. I want to spread my happiness to others.

I don't like any specific brands or designers. I am inpsired by vintage, pop art and the style of the 1960s. I like making my own accessories. My ring is homemade.

   



Timmy

I like my style with a little bit of rock. My favorite designers are Viktor & Rolf, Alexander Mc Queen and John Galliano. I designed the jacket I'm wearing. I had the idea for it when I was daydreaming on the bus. I bought the fabric and had it made in mainland China.

I don't think I'm handsome, so I dress myself up to look different. I don't want to be normal. My style is black and skinny. I love Vivienne Westwood and Jeremy Scott. I do a fashion snapshot called Snap Yours on Facebook.




Phy

I buy my clothes in TST, Causeway Bay and Mongkok. My favorite designers are Chanel, Chocolate, and Another London! I don't follow the trends. I just wear what I like. I like gothic and rock styles. Sometimes I dress up sport or smart kid, it just depends on my mood.

A pair of shoes are very important to an outfit. Vivienne Westwood inspires me because she is creative and gorgeous. My style is boho and posh chic and punk. I want to design something brave that is not of this world.
