The inspiration for "Women's Tough" came from a desire to depict women's toughness in an elegant manner. Ricky Lo Wing Kit, the designer behind this project, wanted to create a tension between the subjects and their environments. The result is a series of images that not only showcase fashion but also tell a story of strength and resilience.
What sets "Women's Tough" apart from other fashion images is its unique approach to portraying women. Instead of focusing on beauty or glamour, Ricky Lo Wing Kit chose to highlight the toughness of women. This approach gives the images a depth and complexity that is often missing in traditional fashion photography.
The project was a collaborative effort, with contributions from model Sol Park, stylist Marco Chan, and make-up artist Yola Hung. Each member of the team brought their unique skills and perspectives to the project, contributing to its overall success.
"Women's Tough" has been recognized for its innovative approach to fashion photography. In 2011, it was awarded the Iron A' Photography and Photo Manipulation Design Award. This award is given to designs that are well-designed, practical, and innovative, and that meet professional and industrial requirements. The award is a testament to the quality and originality of Ricky Lo Wing Kit's work.
The "Women's Tough" project is a powerful example of how fashion can be used to tell stories and convey messages. It is a testament to the creativity and innovation of Ricky Lo Wing Kit and his team, and a worthy recipient of the Iron A' Design Award.
