Last week, the SPD International Program delved into the future of style with our public lecture: “Innovation and Sustainability: Insights from the Luxury Fashion Industry.” Our guest speaker, Mr. Luong Viet Thanh Tung from the School of Interdisciplinary Science and Arts, Vietnam National University of Hanoi, shared a powerful message: “The essence of luxury isn’t measured in gold, but in its ability to drive social changes and human progress.” What we explored: ✅ How “Green” is the new “Gold” through sustainable materials. ✅ The fusion of local wisdom and indigenous culture with high-end design. ✅ How Asian perspectives are currently reshaping the global standards of the luxury world. Special thanks to Dr. Pred Evans for the warm welcome remarks and Dr. Duan Haosheng for coordination and moderation! Stay tuned for more events that bridge the gap between tradition and innovation.
