According to Le Thi Quynh Trang, the founder and president of VIFW, from now on, VIFW will host two shows per year, with Ho Chi Minh City presenting the Spring/Summer collections and Hanoi the Fall/Winter collections.
From its inception in 2014, the event has attracted millions of Vietnamese fashion-lovers and been highly regarded by the world’s fashion critics and followers,” she said. “It has also been seen as a key development in Vietnam’s fashion industry, which is regarded as one of the most dynamic emerging fashion markets in the world.”
“Thanks to VIFW, a number of local fashion designer names such as Hoang Minh Ha, Thuy Nguyen, Adrian Anh Tuan and Ly Giam Tien — as well as brands like Canifa, I Hate Fashion and Tiny Ink — have been popularised and gained a greater regional and international profile.”
“We are delighted to see the increasing popularity of VIFW reflected by audience support and media coverage through local and international channels. It is a clear indication of the success of the platform and an essential motivation for us to evolve the concept and push Vietnam’s fashion boundaries forward by organising two dedicated fashion weeks per year,” she said
