Description

In 2020, many of the heritage places in Hong Kong have already been demolished with the modernization of society. This collection is inspired by a graphic that is often seen in the old days of Hong Kong, and every Hong Konger should recognize, which is the green and white colour checkered flooring found in restaurants in the past. In order for the pattern to accommodate denim, the green color checks are changed to a blue color. Therefore, blue and white are the main colors in this collection. The pattern is hand-woven to symbolize the traditional checkered floor pattern.

The collection is called “REVERSE CHECK”. So what does ‘REVERSE” mean here? Woven fabric is usually not used as the main fabric to make lingerie. Lingerie is intimate apparel. But NO, I do not agree with that. So here, I want to reverse this way of thinking. Woven fabric can be the primary fabric for making lingerie. Lingerie can also be outerwear. Lingerie can be fashionable garments.
