Introduction
The Macao Fashion Gallery will present the “Style‧Encounter Moment—Fashion Exhibition of the 3rd Subsidy Programme for Fashion Design on Sample Making” as the grand final exhibition for this year, showcasing the selected works of the “2015 Subsidy Programme for Fashion Design on Sample Making” and sharing the creations of local fashion designers.
The exhibition will showcase the works of eight (individual or teams of) beneficiaries, including Cheang Chi Tat, Peng Yun, Tam Chi Kit, Cheong Kuan Peng & Wong Ha (team), Cheang Man Cheng, Leong Iok Pui, Lo Ka Heng & Choi Wai Leng (team) and David Siu. The professional adjudicating panel selected the subsidised works through initial review and second review seriously.

To promote the development of the fashion design industry in Macao, the Cultural Affairs Bureau of the Macau S.A.R. Government has launched the Subsidy Programme for Fashion Design on Sample Making since 2013. The programme aims to encourage innovation in local fashion design and promote fashion designers to draw up feasible and optimised business plans, encourage the industry to be involved in commercial activities or participate in local and international fashion marketing activities, thereby enhancing the popularity and market competitiveness of the local industry and carrying forward the sustainable development of the local fashion design industry.
This exhibition, apart from familiarising the public with local fashion design, it also provides a platform for exchanges among designers for more cooperation opportunities, in order to help the local fashion brands to spur broader development.
