Jointly organised by the Education Bureau and SFT, the “Stitchable Chinese Arts” Fashion Design Competition is open to all primary and secondary students in Hong Kong. The theme of this competition is “Modern China-Chic”. To prepare for submission, primary and secondary students participated in a series of online briefing sessions, courses on fashion design and technology, as well as design workshops, to learn how to design fashionable clothing inspired by traditional Chinese art and cultural elements, and catch a glimpse of the dynamic and ever-changing fashion industry.
The participants were required to design and sketch a “T-shirt” and a “whole garment outfit”. In total, 660 and 844 artworks were received from 51 primary and 76 secondary schools, respectively. Among the submissions, 20 primary and 30 secondary students were shortlisted. With the support of SFT professors and students, these 50 finalists participated in workshops in April and May 2024 at SFT to transform their designs into real garments. On 29 August, their creations will be presented on the runway at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
