Woo! Fair
hosted in
Hong Kong

AS THE world’s leading supplier
of high-quality wool knitted ap-
parel, Hong Kong recently played
host to a second annual Wool Fair.

Organized by the Hong Kong
based International Wool
Secretariat Office for the
Solitheast Asian Countries, the
event, held.in late October, at. the
Shangri-La Hotel attracted some
4,000 visitors from all parts of the
world. ;

The event has extended its inter-
national image to include many
participants from various coun-
tries, but the majority of the 5]
exhibitors were from Hong Kong.

Apart from the exhibition, a
i3-scene fashion show was

repeatedly shown to buyers and

visitors during the three-day event.

All the garments in the fashion
show were created by three design-
ers specially selected by the IWS,
‘Tuey were Franklin Chu = and
Glovia Wong from Hong Kong,
and Christina Tontini from Italy.
The garments were made by local
manufacturers with yarns and
fabrics from world resources, in-
cluding Italy, U.K., Japan, Korea
and China.

A total of 133 ensembles were
featured in the fashion show,
covering a wide range of fashions
for fall/winter °87, from young
casual wear to outdoor apparel,
classic coordinates, and after-six
creations.

Though influenced by various
sources, the fashions were unified
by one philosophy — simplistic
designs with the shapes playing se-
cond fiddte to fabrics and color —
bringing them in line with the look
of the ’80s. In pursuit of comfort,
the designers hailed the return to
classics with the rediscovery of
wool jerseys, and comfortable
dressing was extended from casual
sportswear to sensuous second-skin

dresses for after-six. Casual sport- .

swear took on the direction of

practical and updated basics, using —
worsted, crepe, fluid jersey vies,.

with printed wool.

For the more sophisticated
couture fashion, the direction
leaned towards shapely, figure-
defining, feminine looks.
