From “Made in Hong Kong” to “Designed in Hong Kong”: Searching for an Identity in Fashion
The article furthered the discourse of hybridity and design identity in cultural production using a case study in colonial Hong Kong. Numerous academic and public presentations (MoMA Tokyo, 2012; Brighton University, 2012; Lingnam University, 2010) informed and disseminated the study. It fed into Ling's, as Co-investigator of AHRC project Translating East Asian Design for the Global World (2012-14), advancing research development in East Asian fashion. Visual analysis was undertaken extending the scope of cultural studies and anthropology where fashion is not investigated regularly. The article was reprinted in ed. K.B. Chan, 'Hybrid Hong Kong' (2012, London and New York: Routledge).
