Director Long Kan always has a passion for connecting generations of senior designers to support newly graduated design students, to inherit and promote the good things in fashion, and update world fashion trends through the younger generation.
Playground for young fashion designers
Director Long Kan shared with Tuoi Tre Online that when he decided to do the fashion show Vietnam Next-Gen Fashion Era 1 at this time, many people objected because of economic difficulties.
"However, I still decided to invest effort and finance to implement the program. Because each year there is only one graduation season for fashion design students, if I don't invest now, when will I?
If you don't do it this year, you will miss out on a generation of talented young designers. At that time, you may lose your opportunity, while I can help you meet and connect with more senior designers, opening up opportunities for practical experience" - Long Kan emphasized.
Vietnam Next-Gen Fashion Era 1 fashion show has the participation of 37 fashion design students, trained from schools nationwide.
Among them, there are 12 valedictorians and many salutatorians from schools such as Hanoi University of Architecture, Ho Chi Minh City University of Architecture, University of Technical Education, Hanoi University of Textile and Garment, Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology, Hoa Sen University, Van Lang University...
According to Long Kan, 37 students were selected to present designs that he and his colleagues from schools across the country had attended graduation project presentations of hundreds of students.
Although they are graduation projects, the designs show the creativity and talent of the students. The audience can hardly recognize that they are graduation projects. Because each person has a different color.

Youth fashion personality
For recent graduates, having a professional runway like Vietnam Next-Gen Fashion Era 1 is very valuable.
This stage is considered the gateway to the real catwalk, motivating fashion students to strive and affirm who they are.
"Small changes can create big turning points that change a person's life" - Long Kan emphasized.
That's why he is not afraid to challenge himself and take risks during difficult economic times to create a launching pad, an opportunity for students to have more confidence and make more efforts in the future.
