About the Fashion Show

VoV: HKRUNWAY presents an innovative fashion show that merges the creative vision of Hong Kong Design Institute (HKDI) fashion designers with the technological expertise of Alexey Martin. This collaborative project reimagines the traditional fashion runway through virtual reality and digital innovation.

The show explores how fashion can be experienced and presented in virtual environments, creating new possibilities for design, presentation, and audience engagement. By combining physical garments with digital environments, the project pushes the boundaries of fashion presentation and challenges conventional notions of the runway show.

This virtual reality approach to fashion builds upon the innovative presentation concepts introduced in HKRUNWAY, while utilizing VR technology similar to Kowloon Forest. The collaborative educational model connects with the knowledge-sharing mission of Multiple Futures of Art and Technology.

Collaborative Elements

  • HKDI student designer collections
  • Virtual reality runway environments
  • Digital fashion visualization
  • Interactive audience experiences

Innovation in Fashion

The project demonstrates how emerging technologies can enhance and transform fashion presentation. By creating virtual runway environments, the show allows for impossible architectural spaces and fantastical settings that would be impractical or impossible in physical venues.

Educational Partnership

The collaboration with HKDI provides emerging fashion designers with exposure to cutting-edge presentation technologies, preparing them for a future where digital and physical fashion experiences increasingly converge.

Cultural Impact

VoV: HKRUNWAY represents a new model for fashion presentation that combines local design talent with international technological innovation, positioning Hong Kong as a center for fashion-technology collaboration.

Virtual Reality Experience

Audience members can experience the fashion show through VR headsets, allowing them to move through the virtual runway space and observe the garments from multiple perspectives, creating a more immersive and interactive fashion experience. This immersive approach connects with other VR explorations in HKACT's program, including Kowloon Forest and the interactive methodologies discussed in VoV: Morphogenesis of Values.
