Hi, I am Phát, i’m 22 years old and a 3rd year student in Van Lang University and majoring in Fashion Design Participating in this competition marks an important milestone in my journey. I see it as a valuable opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, grow my skills, and learn more about the craft of leatherwork. I look forward to sharing experiences, gaining new insights, and continuing to refine my practice through this experience. I believe that working with real leather — a material that is both strong and supple — requires more than just technique. It takes patience, emotion, and a deep respect for the material itself. This is what I strive for: to create meaningful pieces with soul, craftsmanship, and lasting value.

Working with our partners at Arts Thread to develop lifelong learning and career opportunities for students of fashion and design. Our partnership provides the opportunity to compete on a world stage, participate in industry led workshops, set up an outstanding portfolio and gain access to the resources that will kickstart careers in fashion and design.
