Vietnamese model Khanh Linh is the leading star on the catwalk wearing Hung’s creations.

This is the debut of Hung on international runway after launching his career three years ago.

A total of 20 newly designed costumes inspired by feminism and the strength of women have been showcased getting large applause from the audience at the event, which finished on September 17.

According to a report from the designer’s office, the opportunity was thanks to Fashion Scout - the international showcase for fashion pioneers, the UK's largest independent showcase for emerging and established talent during London Fashion Week.

Hung said, regardless of different cultures such as Africa, Asia, USA, Europe, every woman had an important and key position in their communities.

"They are the ones who have inspired a lot for fashion and for me," he said.

His view could be clearly expressed on the runway where models had different skin colours, different heights, wore different designs but had their own ways of shining.

Hung’s collection were very diverse and not confined to a soft feminine style, or pastel palettes.

Red dresses, black leather jackets, bold tailoring cuts-all stood out alongside with his bold designs to date

The main material of the collection was 100 per cent silk brocade, tulle, organza, taffeta; with both traditional hand embroidery featuring tambour embroidery techniques.

The designer added a detail of Dong Ho painting - a type of traditional Vietnamese folk art - to show his respect to folk culture of the beloved place where he was born.

Dong Ho painting or Dong Ho folk woodcut painting originates in Dong Ho commune, Thuan Thanh district, in the northern province of Bac Ninh.

Hung has promptly received supports from many female models and celebrities despite being a relative newcomer.
