Hong Kong Gifts & Premium, Home InStyle and Fashion InStyle opened at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) on Sunday 27 April, showcasing the latest lifestyle products.
“Hong Kong’s exports of gifts, home products, fashion items and packaging solutions are increasingly targeting the mid-to-high-end market, transitioning from original equipment manufacturing to original design,” says organiser HKTDC deputy executive director, Sophia Chong.
Celebrating its 40th edition, the Gifts & Premium fair showcased creative and functional products, with award-winning entries from the Hong Kong Smart Design Awards 2025 highlighting local design talent.
To showcase Hong Kong’s original designers to the world, 65 award-winning works, organised by the Hong Kong Exporters Association, were on display at the fair in a special awards area.
To support the growing ageing population in Hong Kong, Home InStyle launched the Gerontech Living Pavilion at this year’s fair. Divided into four areas—bedroom, living room, bathroom and games room—the segment showcased innovative products from over 10 local companies including social robots, smart mobile toilets and smart walking sticks.
The 2025 edition of Fashion InStyle saw the launch of NEXT Fashion InStyle (NEXT), a new highlighted zone organised by the HKTDC and sponsored by the Cultural and Creative Industries Development Agency (CCIDA) of the HKSAR Government. As a strategic partner of NEXT@Fashion InStyle, about 30 Thai exhibitors showcased fashion materials that blend Thai culture with sustainability and innovative technologies.
“The HKTDC remains committed to supporting exhibitors’ needs to help them upgrade and transform their businesses, while enhancing the overall quality of our exhibitions to provide a premier platform for cultural and creative design that can reinforce Hong Kong’s position as a leading regional creative hub,” Chong adds.
In addition to Thai exhibitors, the NEXT zone brought together more than 60 exhibitors from Mainland China, Europe, the Americas, Australia, Indonesia, Singapore and Vietnam. The Hangzhou New Concept Fabric Creative Centre Textile Library established an innovation hub within NEXT, featuring products that integrate traditional Chinese crafts such as Badu linen embroidery, beam printing and tie-dye techniques with advanced materials.
“This year’s lifestyle fairs are being held together in late April to offer buyers a one-stop, diverse sourcing experience, helping industry players explore cross-sector and cross-disciplinary business opportunities and creating synergies.”
The Hong Kong International Printing & Packaging Fair, DeLuxe PrintPack Hong Kong and the Hong Kong International Licensing Show and Asian Licensing Conference were also held at the same time.
