She remarked that Hong Kong designers excelled and adpated well in this extremely competitive business, meeting new challenges and opportunities including fast changing technology and calls for sustainability in apparel production.
"As we can see from the sample collections here today, designers' creations are full of audacity and contemporary flair, showing superb tailoring and craftmanship," she said.
