Hong Kong Fashion Trends 2020

-

Hong Kong has had the most iconic fashion trends in the last ten years hitting the streets. From Japanese doll eye contacts in early 2010’s to the recent athleisure craze that is still going strong, Hong Kong people are in love with everything Japanese related.

From movies, music to food and fashion. the kawaii aesthetic is particularly well-loved in the city, where shops sell an abundance of frilly baby pink dresses and lolita style blouses. The girly dresses always paired with big circle contact lenses and enhanced eye-enlarging makeup for an innocent, doll-like head-to-toe look.

Young Hong Kongers also tend to favor a classic form of dress but never without a pop of color or a touch of quirkiness. Vintage, cartoonish, or even hip-hop influenced designs show personality and self-expression. You can find young and old alike wearing graphic tees and small boutiques sprinkled about the city selling accessories and fashion of this nature well within any price range.

Yet crop tops are one of the trends that don’t seem to be going anywhere. From simple cropped t-shirts to briolette tops and workout tees, crop tops have even sparked controversy and debate in the media such as when ASOS came out with crop tops for men earlier this summer.

However, in recent time, the land of K-dramas' influence on Hong Kong can be seen from the city’s growing streetwear scene. With plenty of new and emerging Korean designers gaining cult fans around the world, Hong Kongers are welcoming the Korean Wave with open arms.

Many have been hunting for the latest collections from Korean streetwear brands, mimicking their favourite K-pop stars' makeup looks. Sometimes it’s just hard to tell if these fashionistas are from Hong Kong or Korea.
