Continuing with the designer interviews, it is very impressive to hear that they also have a social conscious! From one of our favorite collections, Ms. Jasmine Leung, fashion designer, states, “During these 4 years of study in BA fashion, I realized how damaging fashion and garment-making is to the world. We, as the new generation of fashion creators, need to take action to make a change. Designing a sustainable fashion collection and eventually establishing a sustainable fashion brand are my goals.” 

Read Part 3, of inspirations, fashion designer favorites, and future plans! A heady mix of, ‘the simple life’, Zero Waste, love bonds, and America sports references.

繼續進行設計師訪談,設計師對社會問題的意識令人意想不到! 其中一個我們最喜歡的系列設計師Jasmine Leung說:「在BA時尚的這四年研究中,我意識到時裝和製衣業對環境多麼有害。我們作為新一代時裝創造者需要採取行動作出改變。設計可持續發展的時裝系列並最終建立可持續發展的時尚品牌是我的目標。」

Look at these amazing photos from John Galliano’s seminal collection by Guy Marineau. The back story to this collection is in eary 1994, John Galliano was sleeping on the floor of a friend’s flat. From this low point, with the help of new backers and other talented friends, Stephen Jones, Amanda Harlech, and hostess Sao Schlumberger, he created this defining collection of his career. A majestic fusion of Japanese kimonos and 1940’s tailoring. The comeback kid!

Windaus Wister這個名字很特別。我們於去年的香港春夏時裝週遇上了這位年輕才俊,當時他坐在香港會議展覽中心一個比較隱蔽的角落,差點讓我們錯過碰上這位謙虛的年輕人的機會。他的攤位看起來有點凌亂,一半以上的產品都已賣出,穿上他的設計的人體模型與整個環境氛圍造成極大的對比。他並沒有嘗試冒充簡約派藝術風格,但整個視覺效果卻讓人感覺在觀看IDGAFery的某個展覽,是一個“毫不費功夫” 的佈置。他的設計不單只個性突出,主題亦相當鮮明,獨特同時予人不順著潮流而行的感覺。整體而言非常優秀!Windaus Wister 像是香港時裝週的一道清泉,令我們有「這個年輕人將會有一番作為」,而沒有空手而回的感覺。

Windaus Wister it has a nice ring to it. We met the young squire tucked away in a blind spot of the cavernous Hong Kong Convention Center last spring at the HK Fashion Fair. We almost passed the unassuming dude by. His booth looked like it had been picked over and half the merchandise sold! A mannequin with one of his creative designs looked disembodied from the entire display completely. The whole visual gave off a sense you were staring at some kinda showcase of IDGAFery, opposed to come check my wares. It was quite the ‘no effort’ presentation. It made no attempt to masquerade as minimalism, it just was. It was enough though. The 5 or six garments, not total looks ya hear, where brilliant. Their personality stood out just hanging on racks! The ideas were sharp, unique and against trend. Windaus Wister saved that fashion week for us. Instead of walking out empty handed, we came away with as sense that damn, this kid could do it BIG.

SPITGAN – Who is Windaus Wister?
WINDAUS WISTER – Lol. Wind is my Chinese name. I wanted to have an English name so I would check the dictionary. In fact Windaus and Wister are two seperate names but when I mixed them together it looked like, sounded like, the IT brand Windows Vista! When I said the name it sounded quite interesting and then I put it together.

SG – Yeah. Its a very interesting name. It sounds like a name of magic.
WW – I met a German guy before and he asked me if I was German.

SG – What do you want Windaus?
WW – I want my lover, and my business.

SG – What do women want Windaus?
WW – All women want to have a rich husband. No need to work.
