HONG KONG, Feb. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- DFS Group, the world's leading luxury travel retailer, is delighted to launch their "Liberate Your Inner Dragon" campaign to celebrate the Year of the Dragon. With dragon symbolizing fortune and a vibrant spirit, DFS invites customers to treat themselves and their loved ones to thoughtful gifts that embody their wishes for prosperity and abundance while enjoying meaningful experiences that nurture the mind.

Experiencing the rich tapestry of heritage and artistic brilliance while shopping

DFS is celebrating Lunar New Year traditions through a special exhibition paying homage to red paper cutting- an art form dating back to when paper was invented over a thousand years ago. Recognised by UNESCO on the list of "Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity", red paper cutting plays a significant role in traditional Lunar New Year decorations and blessings. In recent years, paper cutting has experienced a revival with a new generation of artists infusing modern elements into this ancient art form.

In support of preserving cultural heritage, local artists, and to continuously engage customers in meaningful experiences, DFS and the internationally renowned Hong Kong Arts Centre have collaborated to present "Where Art Meets Tradition: Red Paper Cutting Exhibition" exclusively at 13 DFS stores around the world. Inspired by DFS' campaign theme "Liberate Your Inner Dragon", three artists from Hong Kong Arts Centre have created 10 red paper cutting designs, featuring auspicious new year symbols and motifs inspired by legends surrounding dragons in Chinese culture.  Click here for a preview of this unique exhibition.

Immersive cultural experiences for you and your family

In addition to the exclusive exhibition, DFS will also be hosting live red paper cutting demonstrations at selected stores where invited artists will showcase their paper cutting skills, and the masterpieces will be distributed to in-store customers as a form of blessing. Customers who make an in-store purchase at select stores may also be entitled to a gift of a Prosperous Papercraft set to inspire them to create their own New Year decoration. Please check in store for further details.

To further spread the festive cheer, customers who shop for Lunar New Year gifts curated by DFS from coveted global brands will receive a limited-edition pack of eight lucky red envelopes upon spending a specific amount in store.
