HÀ NỘI — Through the language of fashion, young graduates of the Hà Nội-based London College of Design and Fashion (LCDF) covered urgent social issues through a fashion show on Saturday.

After the show, the collections remain on display at the LCDF, 98 Tô Ngọc Vân Street, Hà Nội, for one week.

The highlight of the event is Lương Thị Ngọc Quỳnh with the collection Admonito, reflecting traffic safety. She uses waterproof materials, denim, leather and lace to create a collection with slogans such as “fasten seat belts” and “stop drinking”.

Jamie Nguyễn Bảo promotes a message of saving and recycling with the collection Pattern of Thoughts in which he reuses old clothes from family members.

Vũ Thị Khánh Linh uses strong colours such as red, orange and yellow in the collection Beyond Original. She finds inspiration from endless sand dunes. Like Bảo, Linh also creates clothes from recycled materials.
