Compilation of Events Highlights | Fashion Atelier Certificate Programme (FACP) 2021/22 Savile Row Academy in HK
Organised by the Hong Kong Fashion Designers Association (HKFDA), the FACP 2021/22 has now come to a close. With the successful completion of the FACP Master Courses in July 2022, a total of 57 elites from various sectors of the Hong Kong fashion industry, including fashion designers, founders of fashion brands, fashion academia, novice designers, professional pattern cutters and bespoke tailors, graduated successfully from both the Menswear & Womenswear Courses. Thus, enriching their skills and expertise to new heights.
All the Course participants are grateful for the high-quality Savile Row bespoke training which has upgraded and developed their skills and expertise. The dynamic sharing of skills and technical know-how amongst International Master and local professionals during the FACP has also strengthened the cohesion within the fashion industry while reflecting the Savile Row bespoke artisan spirit.
Moreover, two pre-event Master Talks, two post-event FACP Ambassador Forums, an Opening Ceremony and a Certificate Award Ceremony were held to promote the Master Programme and further advocate sophisticated technical knowhow for the Hong Kong fashion industry. All of the noteworthy highlights of the FACP events are included in the video.
HKFDA appreciates the support from CreateHK and all supporting organisations which marks the huge success of all events of the first FACP. We also aspires to engage more future advance professional Master Programmes hoping to be further supported by the Hong Kong SAR Government in order to raise the Hong Kong fashion design industry to a new height.
