Fashion – Vancouver
Born and raised in Vancouver BC, Stephanie Hung graduated with honors from both Helen Lefaux School of Fashion Design in 2002 and The Art Institute of Vancouver in 2006. The first 3 years of her career she worked at a local design firm as a production and design assistant where she was introduced to many manufacturers, suppliers and contractors which aid immensely in starting her own business in the future. In 2010 she was recruited by Fairchild retail division to manage Ozone Fashion Gallery. Here she gained valuable experience and knowledge for her career. After a few years in the retail industry Stephanie launched her own label under the name Nina Tan.
The Canadian label is named after her two best friends and muses the sweet and flirtatious Nina and hip and sexy Tanya hence, the birth of Nina Tan Design. Stephanie described her collection: “The Nina Tan woman is feminine and a confident beauty. She is a busy young working executive who is looking for outfits versatile enough to transform from office chic to evening glamour. She is charismatic and people are drawn to her natural charm.” Therefore her line carries all the hip urban and girly trends a busy city girl embraces. Focusing on cutting and fitting Stephanie is able to accentuate the feminine lines of a women’s body—making what looks good and feel good. Her collections include women’s ready-to-wear, cocktail and evening dresses.
