“Asia Fashion Collection (AFC),” is an incubation project, produced and supported by Vantan and PARCO, in cooperation with the supporting industry organizations based in Asia, looking to contribute to the further development of the fashion industry across Asia. The promising young designers from Asia, selected through recommendation made by Korea Fashion Association and Taiwan Textile Federation and Hong Kong Trade Development Council, will be given the opportunities to make the runway debut, together with talented design students from Vantan Design Institute, in Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Tokyo and New York Fashion Week. The designers will participate in post-show incubation programs such as exhibitions and various promotional events held in Asia.
