Fashion and apps go together like Louis Vuitton and a Hong Kong Tai Tai’s, just ask Benoit Lavaud, the founder of Zoolook. Benoit worked for 3 years in the LVMH group, then 12 years in the L’Oreal group including 7 years in Japan before founding Zoolook.

Sean Okihiro, founder of Kobo Design here in Hong Kong has always been an independent type, doing his own thing and making stuff. He’s been a web developer, a designer, a wine salesman, even a professional sake brewer in Japan.
