Why you can trust SCMP

Frocks and fine art, two uneasy yet inextricably linked bedfellows come together in an exhibition at the Hong Kong Design Centre (28 Kennedy Road, Admiralty, tel: 2522 8688). Fashion Art from Korea traces the work of contemporary artists, academics and cutting-edge creators who use clothing to reinterpret the body. Works on show include Geum Key-sook's Amber Legend (top), which outlines the body in a skeleton of wires and semi-precious stones, and Bae Chun-bum's cubist Multi-self Dress (above right). The exhibition, which has already travelled to Berlin, New York and Vienna, will run in Hong Kong until July 11. Entrance is free.
