Hong Kong-born, London-based Robert Wun made history as the first Hong Kong designer to show at Paris Haute Couture Week back in 2023. Since then, his shows have become a hot ticket and a highlight of Paris Fashion Week. Wun’s dramatic gowns, often inspired by horror films, have attracted such A-list fans as Lady Gaga and Lisa from Blackpink. Here, the designer shares his favourite finds from around the world.

What I’m watching

I really enjoyed Dandadan, created by Japanese mangaka Yukinobu Tatsu. I love how modern anime is interpreted, and knowing the story behind the creator’s journey makes it extra special. I’m also looking forward to seeing [supernatural mystery horror film] Weapons in the cinema.

My go-to beauty products

Penhaligon’s Halfeti perfume is essential – one of the looks from my recent couture show was even named after it. I also enjoy Le Labo Rose 31.

Places I love in London

Victoria Park – I love going there with my dog as a break from the city. Koya Soho is my favourite udon place in London, and of course, my London studio – I do enjoy working and am excited to be in my workspace.
