ITC alumnus Enzo Chan (BA 2020)
ITC alumnus Enzo Chan (BA 2020), majored in Knitwear Design and Technology, won the 2nd Runner-up and the New Talent Award at the Hong Kong Young Designers’ Contest (YDC) last year. One of his prizes was the mentorship offered by JOYCE Boutique to develop a capsule collection to be sold at one of the JOYCE outlets. The crossover collection is on sale at JOYCE, Pacific Place.
After winning the competition he launched his own brand, VO-YAGE, and collaborated with the JOYCE team to create this limited-edition capsule collection. The collection is an evolution of his award-winning collection, SINCE 1996, that builds on the retro and casual wear styling of his original collection. The elegantly designed clothes feature exquisite detailing, such as tops and jackets embroidered with a pattern using personal photographs, a double-sided blazer and corduroy trousers featuring detachable elements.
Enzo expressed his sincere appreciation to YDC and JOYCE in developing his first fashion collection, “Through my collaboration with JOYCE, I have learnt a lot about the different ways to operate a fashion label, such as leveraging a brand’s distinctive attributes to meet market demand. Most importantly, the experience has allowed me to determine the potential direction and presentation of my personal brand.”
