Graduate of Higher Diploma in Fashion Design
After graduating from Higher Diploma in Fashion Design in 2016, Wilson Choi completed a top-up degree of BA (Hons) Fashion Design at Nottingham Trent University. Wilson has always enjoyed challenges and has participated in numerous competitions since secondary school. When he was in Secondary Four, he won the Champion in a fashion design competition. The sense of achievement led the decision of choosing fashion as his career.
Being one of the elite students of HKDI in 2016, he was rewarded a study scholarship to UK and Sweden, during which he attended a 3-day smart textiles workshop at Boras University. Applying the fashion technology skills he learnt from the trips, his fashion collection “2/3” adopted a seamless design and fabric with a special coating. The coat is tailored with different inflatable sections to support injured body parts. This heart-warming design won him unanimous commendation from the judges and earned him the CreateSmart Young Design Talent Special Award at DFA Hong Kong Young Design Talent Awards 2016, winning HK$250,000 in sponsorship for overseas attachment in a renowned fashion company in Germany.
In 2017, he achieved 2nd Runner-up at Hong Kong Young Fashion Designers’ Contest (YDC) with his collection using the latest seamless design and ultrasonic sewing technology, reflecting his pursuit of high-tech fashion. It gave him the opportunity to collaborate with MINI in 2018, to create a special windbreaker reflecting the design of the latest MINI models, with the proceeds going to charity.
Wilson’s menswear label “REDEMPTIVE” was founded in 2018 and he unveiled the latest SS19 collections in a FASHIONALLY show at CENTRESTAGE 2018.
