About the brand
7 Little Moments is a brand founded in October 2010 by Luar Yen who has a passion for fashion, bags, shoes, and product design in Hong Kong.
7 Little Moments likes design with concept, design with reason, design with inspiration. 7 Little Moments explores different materials and non-traditional ways to express creativeness in fashion and accessories.
Products are originally designed and handcrafted in limited quantity. They are designed as a series with the same concept and vary in size, color, and materials. Welcome crossover project, a possibility for cooperation, OEM design, and local/overseas retail points.
The brand name: “7 Little Moments” came from Cantonese slang, which means, “Don’t be silly.” It is also the philosophy behind this brand. The products give people a strange sense of humor, and the designer self-derides that he is not able to be a fashion designer, so don’t be silly.
