Hong Kong's up and coming fashion designers will be showing off their latest range at a charity event in London. The Hong Kong Fashion Designer Showcase also forms part of celebrations for the 20th Anniversary of the establishment of the Hong Kong SAR.

The event will highlight Chinese designers such as Daydream Nation, INJURY, KENAXLEUNG, ZO-EE and Jaycow with some of them flying into the UK from Hong Kong especially for the event.

While many of these designers have held successful shows in New York, Shanghai and Paris, some will be showing their collection in a London for the first time.

Lawrence Lee, president of Hong Kong Executives Club, said the catwalk event showcases Hong Kong's creativity, vibrancy and unique culture.

The charity fashion show is organized jointly by the Hong Kong Executives Club and the Chinese Community Centre, and is supported by the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office, London.

Christine Yau, the Chairman of the Chinese Community Centre and co-organizer had said: "It is the 37th year of the Chinese Community Centre in serving the local community. The Centre keeps a close link with charity organizations in Hong Kong and we are very pleased to have the opportunity to jointly host the charity event with HKEC and HKETO."

A mix of London's business and fashion leaders are expected to attend the show on May 2 and there will also be a question and answer session with some of the designers.

Five exclusive items shown will be auctioned off after the fashion show and will be tailor-made for the successful bidders. Proceeds from the evening will be donated to support the work of the central London based Chinese Community Centre.

Priscilla To, Director General of Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office, London, said: "In Hong Kong, East and West mesh in many ways, making the city a thriving arts and cultural hub. Our cultural and creative industries employ more than 200,000 practitioners engaged in fields ranging from jewelry design to fashion, painting to publishing, interactive games to comics, advertising to architecture, and music production and digital media to performing arts."
