Heritage brand A.F.Vandevorst has teamed up with The Antwerp World Diamond Centre and the Flanders Fashion Institute and Diarough/UNI-Design to create a unique pair of boots studded with diamonds from Diarough for the launch of Business Of Design Week in Hong Kong, which takes place December 2 – 7, 2013.
This year’s Business of Design Week in Hong Kong specially focuses on the country of Belgium and its creative industries. This Belgian-focussed event, the brainchild of the Flanders Investment and Trade (FIT), is aimed to increase international awareness of the contributions and outputs of Belgium and its industries and artisans. The collaboration between A.F.Vandevorst and Diarough, both Antwerp-based brands, celebrates the creative industries of fashion and diamond manufacturing, respectively.
The luxury boots designed by A.F.Vandevorst and manufactured by Diarough/UNI-Design will go on show at a special private event at Business of Design Week in Hong Kong, attended by significant members of the global design and media industries.
