In celebration of yet another successful London Fashion Week show, student designers from Limkokwing bowed out on Sunday, February 18th, 2018, with a full-on romantic fashion spectacle. The journey towards the showcase was challenging as the team comprising of student and alumni from the Faculty of Fashion and Lifestyle Creativity in Malaysia had to individually scourer for fabric and accessories from different parts of the world to create the unique love story spanning from Africa to Asia. The bold designs were rich with references from Botswana, Swaziland, and Kenya to Cambodia, Thailand, China, Iran, Indonesia and the Maldives.
The inspiring 45 piece LimKokWing Fashion Club collection themed "Date Night" presented at the London Fashion Week this year, was the creative and collaborative work of more than 50 fashion students and took more than 6 months of diligent preparation. LimKokWing Fashion Club is the world's very first fashion label by a University. It was created by Limkokwing University’s Vice President of Brand, Creativity and Talent Development Dato’ Tiffanee Marie Lim in order to give the university's students the opportunity to design and retail their products whilst they are still studying.
“Our collection was created with a special touch of uniqueness to express a feeling of romance and love through costume,” says Dato’ Tiffanee Marie Lim. “We couldn’t be more proud to take part in London Fashion Week for the third year in a row. This showcase was a collaborative effort between our students and staff. We involve our students in these huge projects to show that we know how to build, manage and push any new idea. It is this sense of confidence at Limkokwing that makes us stand out.”
Held at the stunning art décor, London’s Freemasons’ Hall, recognized faces in London’s fashion community, fashion editors, media, embassies, alumni, family and friends, were dazzled by the inspiring collection. Among those on the guest list were representatives including Datin Vivy Yusof of Fashion Valet and the Duck Group, Andrew Tan from Andrew's Models and Kuala Lumpur Fashion Week Ready-To-Wear, as well as representatives from BBC, Farfetch.com, Harrods, Nordstrom, and Julien Macdonald.
The event was in partnership with Toni & Guy, Label M, Kryolan Professional Make Up and received support from Brand Botswana and state broadcaster of Maldives, Public Service Media.
For more than a decade Limkokwing University has been showcasing world-class collections in Paris, Osaka, Chengdu, Jakarta, Singapore, Cambodia, Botswana and all around Malaysia
The achievements of the students at Limkokwing have always been unmatched with students winning awards in all competitions they participate in. The University has a long history and tradition in breaking barriers and attaining record breaking achievements. Founded by Malaysia’s Father of Innovation, Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Paduka Dr Lim Kok Wing, the global brand is now the world’s largest creative sector with 30,000 creative minds from 165 countries in its 14 campuses across the world.
