After the success of the Fashion Voyage series, director Long Kan created a new fashion show series Vietnam Next-Gen Fashion for young talented designers.

Launch pad for fashion enthusiasts

Director Long Kan said the project's goal is to create a launching pad for new generation designers to develop their personal brands, realize their dreams, and promote their designs to fashion enthusiasts. This is also a playground for students with a passion for fashion and young designers to contribute to the overall development of Vietnamese fashion. Founder and director Long Kan said that Vietnam Next-Gen Fashion will be held annually for students and fashion students nationwide before they enter the "stage of life".
