WANACCESSORY, a London-based brand founded by a Chinese designer -- Ms. Meng Yi Wan, renowned for its daring designs, also made appearances in the fashion shows, adding a unique charm to the event.
Over the years, Florentia Village has worked closely with partners and taken measures to fulfill corporate social responsibility in high standard.

In addition, Florentia Village launched a new initiative involving B2B recycled polyester (rPET) specialist P.E.T.

Furthermore, Florentia Village's architectural designs also incorporate sustainability. The roof designs of Florentia Village Chongqing and Florentia Village Shanghai new phase use the same material structure as the National Aquatics Center, Beijing (or the "Water Cube"). A design that balances energy-saving and aesthetics that allows the buildings to let in more natural light, thereby reducing energy consumption and emissions.
The "To Love, Together" is a new initiative for sustainable charity by Florentia Village. In the future, Florentia Village will introduce more initiatives with partners to remain committed to promoting the highest level and standards of corporate social responsibility, thus creating closer connections and interactions between people as well as contributing to the charity's cause.
