Dozens of Hong Kong's aspiring fashion designers turned out in style to present their creations at the 19th annual Fur Design Competition and gala dinner earlier this month.
The contest, organised by the Fur Federation's Young Executive Committee, attracted more than 320 entries. Guests enjoyed a feast during the fashion-judging show - when models such as Rosemary Vandenbroucke and Coco Chiang Yee displayed furs dyed in eye-catching colours. Judges included renowned fashion designers Benny Yeung Chun-yuen and Rowena U, Yvette Yuen Yung Man-wai and Charles Yang Chuen-liang, manager of Saga Furs Nora Tse, North American Fur Auctions' international marketing director Diane Benedetti and Akio Tada from AFC Asia.
On the night, the Fur Federation presented a $500,000 cheque to the Crossing Borders Fundraising Show in aid of tsunami victims. Guests included Pansy Ho Chiu-king, Lucylia Rohmig, Helen Fong Lau Siu-mui, and Susan Sng.
