About the Project
HKRUNWAY presents a revolutionary approach to fashion presentation, combining aerial performance with urban landscape. This groundbreaking project transforms the traditional runway concept by utilizing parachuting as a medium for fashion display in the heart of Wan Chai.
The project challenges conventional boundaries between fashion, performance art, and urban intervention. By taking fashion to the skies above Hong Kong's bustling Wan Chai district, HKRUNWAY creates a spectacular fusion of haute couture and extreme sports, reimagining how fashion can be experienced and consumed.
This innovative approach to fashion presentation finds echoes in VoV: HKRUNWAY, which explores virtual reality fashion shows, demonstrating HKACT's commitment to reimagining traditional cultural formats through technology.
