Washington, D.C., Sept 9, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The formula does not rely on neutrinos alone, but on the combined resonance of the entire invisible spectrum of cosmic and terrestrial radiation. Within multilayer graphene-silicon structures, these fluxes awaken micro-vibrations that cascade into electron flows. It is a process mathematically calculable, physically verifiable, and now proven industrially scalable.The equation unites five decisive parameters: radiation flux density, scattering cross-section, momentum transfer, phonon velocity, and conversion efficiency. Together, they provide a rigorous scientific framework that elevates neutrinovoltaics from theoretical vision to practical reality.Acknowledgment of Global Scientific CollaborationThe Neutrino® Energy Group expresses its profound gratitude to the countless scientists and institutions whose work, whether knowingly or unknowingly, has contributed to what we present today: the Master Formula of Neutrinovoltaic Technology.Every experiment, every theoretical model, every material innovation has been a stone laid in the path. Many of those who placed these stones could never have foreseen that their findings would converge into an entirely new form of energy. Yet through this vast web of knowledge, scattered across decades and continents, this moment has become possible.We extend our deepest thanks to leading institutions whose voices have shaped this global symphony: Max Planck Society, Fraunhofer Institutes, Helmholtz Association, CERN, ETH Zurich, École Polytechnique, Imperial College London, Cambridge and Oxford, JUNO in China, Tsinghua and Peking Universities, Kyoto and Osaka Universities, University of Tokyo, IIT network and Tata Institute of India, C-MET Pune, Fermilab, Brookhaven, MIT, Stanford, University of California, NREL, University of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Moscow State University, JINR Dubna, ICTP Italy, African Institute for Mathematical Sciences, and many nanotechnology and materials science laboratories worldwide.To each of them-whether they pursued neutrino physics, material science, electronics, or mathematics-their work has knowingly or unknowingly become part of this collective achievement. To many, it may not have been clear at the time how decisive their findings would become for the birth of a new energy age. Today, we affirm that their contribution is invaluable, and we honor it with the deepest respect and gratitude.The Master FormulaFor the first time, a consolidated equation has been published that describes the conversion of invisible radiation spectra into usable electrical energy: P = ∫ Φ(E,θ) · σ(E) · Δp · v_ph · η_conv dE dθThis equation unites the flux density of invisible radiation spectra, the scattering cross-section, the momentum transfer, the phonon velocity in the lattice, and the conversion efficiency of graphene-silicon structures. It provides a rigorous framework, mathematically calculable, physically verifiable, and industrially scalable.Holger Thorsten Schubart, CEO of Neutrino® Energy Group, stated: "This Formula and the technology it represents are not the work of one company, but the culmination of global human effort. It is both a gift to humanity and a responsibility to ensure that the benefits of clean, decentralized, and baseload-capable energy reach people everywhere."Closing AppealThe global demand for energy will rise to unprecedented levels in the decades to come. Humanity cannot afford to ignore any pathway that leads to affordable, clean, and dependable energy. Neutrinovoltaics is the product of interdisciplinary collaboration-physics, mathematics, material science, and engineering woven together into a universal form of energy no one could have imagined only a few years ago.What began as isolated insights has converged into a vision of energy that transcends borders, disciplines, and generations. It is a reminder that the future will be shaped not by the limits of today, but by the courage to move beyond them."We make energy affordable and sustainable. We are realistic, but demand the impossible. We believe that with enough ingenuity the impossible becomes the inevitable."About Neutrino® Energy GroupThe Neutrino® Energy Group is an internationally operating science and technology enterprise. Based on discoveries in particle physics, the Group develops neutrinovoltaic technology, the conversion of invisible radiation spectra into electrical energy.

A global Phase II basket trial is expected to be initiated in the first half of 2026.Leveraging its industry-leading mRNA therapeutic cancer vaccine platform and in vivo CAR-T platform, the Company is building a globally competitive R&D pipeline. EVM18, the in vivo CAR-T program, has completed multiple non-human primate (NHP) trials and achieved preclinical proof-of-concept, with first-in-human data expected by the end of 2025. EVM16, the personalized therapeutic mRNA cancer vaccine, has initiated its first-in-human trial in China, with patient dosing completed. In the investigator-initiated trial (IIT), dose escalation in the low- and mid-dose cohorts has been completed, with encouraging preliminary data observed. EVM14, an off-the-shelf tumor-associated antigen (TAA) vaccine, has received IND approval from the U.S. FDA and acceptance from China’s NMPA. The Phase I trial in the U.S. is currently underway, with first patient enrollment expected by September 2025. EVM15, the immune-modulatory cancer vaccine, has completed preclinical proof-of-concept and identified its clinical candidate.Strategic Repositioning to Bolster Global CompetitivenessDuring the reporting period, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange approved the removal of the “B” marker from Everest’s stock short name, reflecting recognition of the Company’s strong R&D pipeline, commercialization capabilities, and overall business fundamentals. In addition to the successful top-up placement, Everest invested approximately US$30.9 million in I-Mab (Nasdaq: IMAB) in August 2025. Following the transaction, Everest increased its ownership in I-Mab to approximately 16.1%, becoming its single largest shareholder, further strengthening its global presence in next-generation immuno-oncology therapies.Analysts noted that Everest’s “dual-engine” strategy is rapidly delivering results. On the one hand, the Company’s powerful commercial platform—anchored by NEFECON(R) and VELSIPITY(R) and supported by XERAVA(R), Cefepime-taniborbactam, EVER001, and other high-potential assets—is expected to generate synergies with total peak sales exceeding RMB 25 billion globally. On the other hand, Everest’s in vivo CAR-T and mRNA therapeutic cancer vaccine platforms provide significant long-term growth potential through global development and partnership opportunities.

HONG KONG, Aug 31, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Hong Kong-listed Shoucheng Holdings Limited (0697.HK) released its interim results for 2025. Driven by its dual-engine strategy of “Asset Operations + Asset Finance,” the company delivered a balanced performance combining steady growth with forward-looking strategic initiatives: first-half revenue reached HK$731 million, up 36% year-on-year; net profit attributable to shareholders was HK$339 million, up 30%; and gross profit stood at HK$295 million, up 26%.Meanwhile, the company continued its high-dividend tradition. According to the public roadshow on August 31, Shoucheng is expected to distribute a total dividend of HK$1.159 billion for FY2025, with a dividend yield of nearly 8%, ranking among the highest in the Hong Kong market. In addition, more than 40 million shares have been repurchased. Financially, Shoucheng holds over HK$8 billion in cash, has fully repaid all bank loans to reduce financing costs, and maintains a gearing ratio of just 7.9%. With its robust capital structure, the company has a solid safety cushion and strong capacity to capture new investment opportunities under current market conditions.I. Solid Financials and Strong Shareholder ReturnsIn the first half of 2025, Shoucheng maintained steady growth in both revenue and profit while continuously strengthening its capital structure. Total assets reached HK$14.35 billion, and the company has maintained its AAA credit rating for three consecutive years from China Chengxin International and United Credit Ratings.Kang Yu, General Manager of Shoucheng’s Board Office, noted in an interview:“We aim not only to create long-term growth potential for our shareholders—Shoucheng’s businesses are at their best stage in history, and we are just setting sail—but also to ensure certainty of shareholder returns. This year alone, dividends have already reached nearly HK$1.2 billion, and continuous share buybacks highlight management’s firm confidence in Shoucheng’s long-term prospects.”The company’s high-dividend and buyback policy reflects a long-term win-win commitment to investors.Notably, the company’s asset finance business delivered outstanding performance, with first-half revenue reaching HK$220 million, a surge of 69% year-on-year, making it a key growth engine driving overall results. Through the establishment of a RMB10 billion Infrastructure Real Estate Equity Investment Stabilization Fund in partnership with China Life, Shoucheng Holdings has continued to deepen its presence in the REITs market, growing into one of the largest industrial investors in the country. The company has successively completed strategic allotment investments in Nanfang Range / Wanguo Data Center REIT, Sunlon REIT, and Huadian Clean Energy REIT, covering key areas such as data centers and clean energy. This has enabled Shoucheng to build a systematic layout across all types of infrastructure assets and establish a complete closed-loop capability from fund investment to asset exit.At the same time, Shoucheng Holdings has also achieved remarkable results in equity investments. Through its multiple industrial funds, the company has invested in leading robotics firms including Unitree, Galbot, Galaxea-AI, X Square Robot, Noetix Robotics, Booster Robotics, and Narwhal Robotics. Previously, Shoucheng secured outstanding results from investments in Li Auto, Horizon Robotics, Zhaogang.com, StarVision, and Silan Microelectronics. Its equity funds had already achieved more than three times book returns earlier this year, delivering impressive exit proceeds. These success stories validate Shoucheng’s forward-looking investment vision in industrial research and also set a solid benchmark for expected returns from its future robotics investments.Kang Yu, General Manager of the Board Office, commented: “We believe that as the robotics industry enters the stage of scaled deployment, the leading companies invested by Shoucheng will deliver higher capital returns and strategic value for the Group.”II. Accelerating the Robotics Strategy: Building the Full Industrial Value ChainIf the financial data demonstrates Shoucheng Holdings’ solid fundamentals, then its robotics business represents the company’s most imaginative growth trajectory for the future. As one of the first listed companies in China to systematically invest in the robotics sector, Shoucheng is accelerating its transformation from a pure investor into a full-chain service provider.Through the RMB10 billion Beijing Robotics Industry Development Investment Fund and its affiliated funds, the company has invested in dozens of leading enterprises such as Unitree, Galbot, Noetix Robotics, Galaxea-AI, and Booster Robotics, covering humanoid robots, core components, and other critical fields. This investment matrix has firmly positioned Shoucheng Holdings at the forefront of the embodied intelligence industry.Notably, the company has also strengthened its presence in the upstream of the robotics value chain. Recently, Shoucheng announced the establishment of Shoucheng Robotics Advanced Materials Industrial Co., Ltd. through its wholly owned subsidiary Shouwo Investment, focusing on advanced materials such as electronic skin, tendon cables, and lightweight PEEK composites. This initiative not only fills critical gaps in the value chain but also enhances the technological performance of portfolio companies in tactile sensing, flexible control, and lightweight design, further improving the full-chain ecosystem represented by humanoid robots.On the application side, the company is driving robotics into real production and everyday life scenarios. Its wholly owned subsidiary, Beijing Shoucheng Robotics Technology Industrial Co., Ltd., is deploying robotics across multiple dimensions. By providing sales agency, leasing, and secondary development services, the company is creating a “Didi-style” supply-demand platform for the robotics sector, facilitating efficient collaboration across the industry chain. Kang Yu noted that Shoucheng will further build a robotics application platform, positioning itself as a comprehensive solutions provider. Acting as a “chain leader,” the company will integrate industry resources, centralize procurement of high-quality products from ecosystem partners, and expand from B2B to B2C and C-end markets, fully unlocking the potential of robotics applications while delivering strong returns to shareholders.Shoucheng’s robotics industrialization strategy has already shown early results. Its strategic cooperation with IAT Automobile Technology Co., Ltd. means robots will be deeply integrated into automotive production lines, intelligent testing, and electrification processes, driving “Robotics + Automobiles” cross-sector synergies. In smart mobility, the Chengdu ICD autonomous charging station co-developed with Wanxun Technology has already been put into operation, enabling large-scale robotic applications in new energy vehicle services. In healthcare, Peking University Shougang Hospital has introduced the SurRui surgical robot developed by a partner within Shoucheng’s robotics ecosystem, marking an accelerated path toward commercialization of domestic surgical robots and breakthroughs in high-end medical equipment.In August this year, at the inaugural World Humanoid Robot Games held in Beijing, multiple companies invested by Shoucheng Holdings made a collective appearance, winning 37 medals (including 12 gold, 14 silver, and 11 bronze). This fully showcased the rapid progress of Chinese robotics companies in motion control and intelligent interaction. At the same time, the company launched the “Shoucheng Robotics Experience Store” outside the “Ice Ribbon” venue, which became one of the most popular exhibition areas during the event. The store not only displayed humanoid and service robots to the public but also provided interactive experiences, helping robots move from professional arenas into everyday life.Looking further ahead, Shoucheng Holdings is exploring the “Robotics 4S Store” model, with plans to create a retail service system that integrates exhibition, sales, maintenance, and customer experience. Kang Yu noted:“At this year’s robot games, our 200-square-meter pop-up store alone generated over RMB 30,000 in daily sales, which strongly reflects public enthusiasm and expectations for robotics applications. Just like new energy vehicles once required 4S channels to popularize, robots will also need service networks to truly enter thousands of households. In the future, we hope individuals, families, and enterprises alike can experience, try on, test, purchase, or lease various robots in-store while enjoying comprehensive after-sales and maintenance services. Through this model, we aim to bridge the ‘last mile’ of the robotics industry and drive robots into daily life.”III. Broad Prospects for Robotics Applications: China’s Soil Nurtures Global LeadersGlobally, the robotics industry is shifting from “running, jumping, and performing” to “understanding, reasoning, and working.” According to GGII (Gaogong Industry Institute), the global humanoid robot market is expected to reach approximately RMB 6.3 billion in 2025, nearly RMB 64 billion by 2030, and potentially exceed RMB 400 billion by 2035. Kang Yu believes that within the next three to five years, robots will see large-scale adoption in industrial manufacturing, healthcare, smart elderly care, and consumer services.She added: “China not only has policy support and capital investment but also possesses unique application scenarios globally, providing the best soil for rapid commercialization of robotics. Shoucheng Holdings’ mission is to combine capital with scenarios to truly bring cutting-edge technologies into scaled application.”Shoucheng Holdings is a dedicated cultivator in this fertile soil. The company has built a complete industry chain layout covering upstream–midstream–downstream:Upstream: Through its wholly owned subsidiary, it established Shoucheng Robotics Advanced Materials Industrial Co., Ltd., focusing on core materials such as electronic skin, tendon cables, and lightweight PEEK, while jointly developing and incubating new technologies to fill gaps in the robotics value chain.Midstream: Through its affiliated industrial funds, Shoucheng has invested in leading companies including Unitree, Galbot, Noetix Robotics, Galaxea-AI, and Booster Robotics, covering humanoid robot systems and critical components.Downstream: Driving scenario applications, Shoucheng has already enabled robotics adoption in real-world environments such as IAT Automobile Technology’s production lines, the Chengdu ICD autonomous charging station with Wanxun, Peking University Shougang Hospital’s surgical robotics, and its Robotics Experience Store. The company is also exploring a “Robotics 4S Store” model.Kang Yu emphasized: “Our mission is to combine capital, materials, technology, and application scenarios to truly scale up frontier technologies.”IV. Outlook: Marching Toward the HK$100 Billion MilestoneAs AI and robotics enter a new stage of application realization, Shoucheng Holdings stands at the forefront of industrial takeoff. With solid asset operations, forward-looking industrial deployment, and consistent shareholder returns, the company is steadily advancing toward its long-term goal of HK$100 billion market capitalization.Kang Yu concluded: “Robotics are the intelligent infrastructure of a new era. Shoucheng Holdings aims not only to be an investor but also a full-chain driver and service provider. We are confident in leveraging the synergy of capital, materials, and application scenarios to lead China’s robotics industry to new heights.”Posted by All Way Success Company Limited for Shoucheng Holdings www.shouchengholdings.com [HKSE:0697, FRA:SHVA, OTCPK:SHNHF] Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

HONG KONG, Sep 8, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and sponsored by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government's Cultural and Creative Industries Development Agency (CCIDA)*, Asia’s annual fashion extravaganza CENTRESTAGE concluded successfully on Saturday, 6 September. The highlight of the closing evening was the grand finale of the Hong Kong Young Fashion Designers’ Contest 2025 (YDC), where 10 up-and-coming local fashion designers presented their highly original collections.Featuring a diverse range of styles, this year’s YDC finalists combined boundary-pushing creativity with refined traditional craftsmanship, perfectly echoing the contest’s theme, “How ‘Bout You'”. Contestants were encouraged to boldly express their personal visions and dreams through fashion, unleashing creativity while courageously pursuing their goals. The evening welcomed a legion of celebrities and artists including Marf@COLLAR, Tiger@MIRROR, Janet Ma, Kayla Wong, Irisa Wong, Lagchun, Bruce Tong, Ka Lai, Madboii, Zelos Wong, Brian Chan, Saito Chong and Ocean On, adding glamour and excitement to the competition as they watched the runway show and cheered on the 10 finalists.After careful deliberation, a panel of professional judges selected four major award winners from the finalists’ collections. Chung Ka-ching, Tiger emerged as Champion, receiving a cash prize of HK$60,000, an overseas study trip sponsored by Fang Brothers Knitting Ltd and a HK$3,000 CASETiFY gift voucher. In addition, Lau Hei-nga received the Excellence Award and Best Art Direction Award, securing a cash prize of HK$40,000, an overseas study trip sponsored by MINI HK and a HK$2,000 CASETiFY gift voucher for the former, and collecting a five-day course at VOGUE College of Fashion in London and an overseas study trip sponsored by VOGUE Hong Kong, with a total value of HK$30,000, plus a HK$1,000 CASETiFY gift voucher, for the latter. The “My Favourite Collection” Award, decided by public voting, went to Yip Wai-lam, Mook, who was awarded a HK$20,000 Lee Gardens Area e-Gift Certificate sponsored by Hysan Development and a HK$1,000 CASETiFY gift voucher.The full list of winners from YDC 2025 is as follows:Champion: Chung Ka-ching, Tiger; Design: “Bior”Excellence Award: Lau Hei-nga; Design: “In Pain”Best Art Direction Award: Lau Hei-nga; Design: “In Pain”My Favourite Collection Award: Yip Wai-lam, Mook; Design: “Modern Animals”Chung Ka-ching, Tiger, winner of the Champion title, presented a collection titled “Bior”, which is a pun on a classic fashion brand. She uses bootleg design techniques to cleverly fuse the rugged elements of grassroots street life with the refined silhouettes of high fashion. This subverts traditional fashion narratives and prompts viewers to reflect on class and aesthetics. Her “Bior” collection is not only a playful take on a luxury brand but also symbolises a challenge to the boundaries of mainstream fashion. Receiving the award, Ms Chung remarked: “I am truly overwhelmed by winning – a mix of surprise and excitement. I believe the YDC is absolutely an important platform for local fashion designers to step onto the international stage. It is the largest stage for emerging talent in Hong Kong and a crucial springboard for designers. Not only does it give the new generation greater exposure, but it also enables us to further develop and amplify our brands and creative visions.”Excellence Award and Best Art Direction winner Lau Hei-nga presented the collection “In Pain”, which reveals the blurred boundaries between agony and ecstasy. This sensory experience is deeply connected to her lifelong battle with eczema – the fleeting pleasure of scratching, followed by blood, wounds and scars, with the physical and emotional tug-of-war forming the core inspiration for her creations. Receiving the award, Ms Lau shared: “I am truly thrilled to receive this award, especially after investing so much time in preparing my collection. At the same time, I have gained immensely from the YDC. With its diverse and far-reaching audience, the contest has allowed many more people to discover my brand and my work.”The “My Favourite Collection” Award, decided by public voting, was won by Yip Wai-lam, Mook for the collection “Modern Animals”, which fuses human and animal characteristics to create a monstrous aesthetic that depicts the workplace as an urban jungle. Upon being presented with the award, Mr Yip said: “My biggest takeaway from participating in the YDC this year has been learning to embrace both success and failure with peace of mind. At the same time, the competition is more than just a platform for recognition – it is a significant stage where fashion designers at different stages in their careers can discover themselves and grow to their full potential. For every new-generation designer, the YDC is a platform that encourages us to shine.”International judge delighted to see Hong Kong nurturing the next generation of designersThis year’s YDC featured a distinguished judging panel comprising seasoned professionals from the fashion industry and media. The panel was chaired by Katherine Fang, Chairlady of the HKTDC Garment Advisory Committee, who served as Chief Judge. The VIP Judge role was taken up by Charles Jeffrey, founder and designer of acclaimed UK fashion label Charles Jeffrey LOVERBOY. Overseas Judge Acielle Tanbetova, founder of international street-style platform STYLE DU MONDE, also joined the panel. Other esteemed judges included Ingrid Chen Mandonnaud, Vice President of Global Brand Marketing and Communications at the Rosewood Hotel Group; Jonathan Lee, Co-founder of brand consultancy The Molecule; Cherry Mui, Style and Fashion Content Director of VOGUE Hong Kong; and Tracey Cheng, Vice President of Merchandise Planning and Business Development at I.T.VIP Judge Mr Jeffrey expressed his appreciation for the young contestants and their inspirations. “I think the YDC is fantastic. It’s amazing how Hong Kong nurtures its young design talents, giving them a major platform to showcase their work to international audiences and industry figures like myself. Personally, I found it inspiring to see how openly they shared their research and inspirations. It was truly inspiring,” he said.Mentoring the YDC contestants this year were Victoria Tang-Owen, Founder & Creative Director of Thirty30 Creative and Victoria Tang Studio, and Artistic & Cultural Director of Shanghai Tang, together with Kit Wan, Founder & Designer of Kit Wan Studio. Drawing on their extensive industry experience, the pair provided valuable guidance to the 10 finalists throughout the competition.Marf@COLLAR ignites the stage with alumni YDC designersFor the ninth consecutive year, MINI Hong Kong has been proud to serve as a major sponsor of the YDC. This year, the brand collaborated with two alumni YDC designers, Jesse Lee (JESSE LEE) and Viki Tsang (GNASTIY.COM), together with singer Marf@COLLAR, to stage a spectacular fashion performance alongside the debut of the all-new 2025 MINI Convertible.

By translating their traces into couture’s coded language, it compels audiences to reexamine the relationship between fashion and class hierarchies.”“Bior” uses humour to merge haute couture tailoring with the coarse details of grassroots life –for example, reimagining fan covers as ornate hats, mimicking the texture of plastic bags, or incorporating the clashing colours of neon lights. The designs capture the dynamics and emotional tensions of labourers, while deconstructed tailoring and exaggerated proportions express both the desolation and vitality of street life. Through this satirical yet profound fashion language, Chung reveals how grassroots labourers are excluded from the fashion narrative and seeks to reconstruct traces of their existence through the visual vocabulary of high fashion.Prizes: Cash prize of HK$60,000, an overseas study trip sponsored by Fang Brothers Knitting Ltd and a HK$3,000 CASETiFY gift voucher.Excellence Award and Best Art Direction AwardDesigner: Lau Hei-ngaDesign: “In Pain”The design: “When we experience pain, our brains respond by releasing these happy chemicals, which can evoke feelings of euphoria.”“In Pain” expresses the complexity of pain through textures and colours, using synthetic skin and layered tailoring to mimic wounds and scars. At the same time, sensual and feminine silhouettes – with smooth curves and tight cuts – suggest the allure of pleasure. The designs incorporate aesthetic elements: knots evoking a sense of restraint, sharp metallic embellishments contrasting with soft leather, weaving a visual language that is both conflicting and harmonious. By incorporating her personal experience with eczema into her designs, Lau turns clothing into a vessel for pain and pleasure, challenging perceptions of sensation and beauty.Prizes (Excellence Award): Cash prize of HK$40,000, an overseas study trip sponsored by MINI HK and a HK$2,000 CASETiFY gift voucher.Prizes (Best Art Direction Award): A five-day course at VOGUE College of Fashion in London and an overseas study trip sponsored by VOGUE Hong Kong, with a total value of HK$30,000, and a HK$1,000 CASETiFY gift voucher.My Favourite Collection AwardDesigner: Yip Wai-lam, MookDesign: “Modern Animals”The design: “The workplace feels like a stage in the food chain, where instincts of competition and survival come alive.”The collection of “Modern Animals” features shirts, trousers and suits as its foundation, incorporating various office symbols to create dynamic silhouettes of the workers. Drawing inspiration from the collision between animals’ primal power and the coldness of urban life, the designs feature grotesque cuts and contrasting materials to showcase the diverse faces of workers from the bottom to the top, and their physical and mental exhaustion as they toil like animals in this concrete jungle.

This year, the brand collaborated with two alumni YDC designers, Jesse Lee (JESSE LEE) and Viki Tsang (GNASTIY.COM), to present a fashion collection inspired by its latest 2025 MINI Convertible, showcasing MINI’s next-generation design aesthetics and commitment to sustainable innovation. MINI x Jesse Lee (JESSE LEE)A surreal fusion of Edwardian elegance and rebellious futurism, “Nine Lives Odyssey” reimagines the whimsical, psychedelic cat illustrations of Louis Wain through a lens of sustainable innovation and gender-fluid design. Drawing from Wain’s anthropomorphic feline art and the refined sportswear of the Edwardian era, the collection blends structured tailoring with playful deconstruction.MINI x Viki Tsang (GNASTIY.COM)The Spring/Summer 2026 collection of GNASTIY.COM reflects on authenticity within digital illusion. Inspired by social media filters, the brand translates digital visual codes into real-world garment constructions. Print techniques disrupt surface expectations, blurring the tactile identity of the fabrics. 3D printing, a GNASTIY.COM signature, appears in sculptural detail work, merging seamlessly with a hybrid of materials to articulate a distinctly futuristic and digitally charged fashion vocabulary.FASHIONALLY COLLECTIONSAs a platform dedicated to nurturing local fashion talents, FASHIONALLY.COM staged four shows during CENTRESTAGE including FASHIONALLY COLLECTION #25, FASHIONALLY Presentation: LAPEEWEE, FASHIONALLY Presentation: MOODLABBYLORRAINE, and FASHIONALLY Presentation: KOWLOON CITY BOY.

In addition, previous contestants from the Hong Kong Young Fashion Designers’ Contest (YDC) took part in exhibitions and other runway shows during the fair, including Derek Chan (DEMO) and Max Tsang (IP AXIS INDUSTRIAL STUDIO). FASHIONALLY COLLECTION #25 phenotypsetter / Theme: “Curated Fluidity”MARCCH / Theme: “Transition”Oplus2 / Theme: “Shape Me Up”OUS / Theme: “Exoskeleton”FASHIONALLY Presentation: LAPEEWEETheme: Baroque Dream LAPEEWEE’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, “Baroque Dream”, draws inspiration from the opulence of Baroque aesthetics, reinterpreted through the lens of modern casualwear. This womenswear collection features a harmonious blend of plaid, denim and lace, creating a balance between elegance and comfort.Dynamic details such as knots and drawstrings inject movement and energy into the designs. The use of corset-inspired silhouettes accentuates the female form, while Dutch-style oversized collars trimmed with lace add a touch of romantic refinement.“Baroque Dream” not only preserves the luxurious essence of the Baroque era but also celebrates the confidence and individuality of modern women, offering a wardrobe that is both stylish and expressive.FASHIONALLY Presentation: MOODLABBYLORRAINETheme: LIBRA ANIMA VESTRAMOODLABBYLORRAINE’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, “LIBRA ANIMA VESTRA”, translates from Latin as “Free Your Soul”. This collection tells the story of a liberating summer road trip along Route 66 in America, where the highlight is hopping between music festivals –a celebration of self-expression through rhythm and movement.Deeply inspired by bohemian and cowboy culture, the collection merges free-spirited artistry with rugged Western elements, creating a vibrant and expressive aesthetic. Through its designs, the collection encourages wearers to reconnect with themselves – through speed, music, and cultural exploration – and to embrace fashion as a medium of personal liberation.FASHIONALLY Presentation: KOWLOON CITY BOYTheme: CLUB HEART BROKENKOWLOON CITY BOY’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, “CLUB HEART BROKEN”, set in a retro locker room after the party ends, “explores the aftermath of love and longing”. The collection introduces a cast of characters: wild beasts in fur and leather, fragile “baby bears” in checks, and hopeless romantics with embroidered love letters and shattered hearts. Opposing them are sports boys in deconstructed jerseys and distressed gear – love as a contact sport.Through bold contrasts – fur with plaid, leather with embroidery, sportswear with shredded fabrics – KOWLOON CITY BOY turns heartbreak into a uniform and loneliness into a badge of survival.Websites- CENTRESTAGE: www.centrestage.com.hk- Hong Kong Young Fashion Designers’ Contest (YDC): www.fashionally.com/en/YDC- Background information, collection details and photos of the 10 YDC finalists are available for download at this link: YDC 2025Media enquiriesBest Crew Public Relations & MarketingDiana Tang Tel: (852) 3594 6443 Email: diana.tang@bestcrewpr.comReni Kwok Tel: (852) 3594 6443 Email: reni.kwok@bestcrewpr.comHKTDC’s Communications & Public Affairs Department:Sharon Ha Tel: (852) 2584 4575 Email: sharon.mt.ha@hktdc.orgKaty Wong Tel: (852) 2584 4524 Email: katy.ky.wong@hktdc.orgHKTDC Media Room: https://mediaroom.hktdc.com/enAbout YDCThe YDC aims to promote a new generation of local design talent, while creating opportunities to showcase their collections in front of global and local industry professionals at CENTRESTAGE.
