Fashion talent shines at CENTRESTAGE

HONG KONG, Sep 23, 2020 - (JCN Newswire) - Organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and sponsored by Create Hong Kong (CreateHK) of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the CENTRESTAGE fashion extravaganza entered its fifth year in 2020, with six virtual runway shows presented online from 17 to 19 September. Combining traditional fashion shows with computer-generated imagery, these unique showcases drew the attention of fashion lovers and media from around the world, allowing Hong Kong and Asian designers to gain exposure and expand their networks amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The six virtual runway shows included "Fashion Hong Kong", "Next in Cheongsam", "FASHIONALLY #15", "Taipei in Style", "Hong Kong en Vogue" and the final of the Hong Kong Young Fashion Designers' Contest (YDC) 2020, all of which can now be viewed on the CENTRESTAGE website. The site also features fashion images highlighting the new collections of local designers.
