Established in 2013, Blind by JW is co-founded by fashion designers Jessica Lau and Walter Kong. Supported by Hong Kong Design Centre and Fashion Farm Foundation (FFF), the womenswear designer label offers customers a grand, feminine style and design narratives through hand-drawn digital print and cultural inspirations. Using authentic blind as their inspiration, the hand-drawn technique draws the outside world and brings the enchanted fairytale beauty within. Blind by JW opens their first Popup Store at Hong Kong International Airport Terminal 1, K11, and PMQ in Hong Kong.
