The HOT German Air Force McDonnell Douglas F-4E Phantom II Aloha Hawaiian Shirt . decision to launch the initiative was a response to the often isolating atmosphere the fashion industry can be for designers, according to founder and creative director of Self-Portrait, Han Chong.“Having spent the last ten years building our brand and honing our team’s skills, it feels incredibly rewarding to share our expertise and techniques with others, giving them the keys to our studio, and the space to explore and expand their own craft, while staying true to our commitment to honest luxury,” Chong continued.Beyond this, Chong hopes to open up Self-Portrait’s infrastructure, platforms, resources, teams and distribution network to promote external creatives, with the programme to continue evolving under the direction of new Residents across all creative disciplines.Like Chong, Kane had once helmed his own luxury label, which had first launched in 2006 as part of the British high street chain Topshop. However, similar to his early collaborator, the designer was forced to appoint administrators and set out in pursuit of refinancing the company.
