Michael Cheung, also known by his stage name MC, surged to fame with his powerful voice after winning second place in season two of King Maker. The 26-year-old’s songs blend pop with a bit of R&B.

At Louis Vuitton’s launch event for LV Objets Nomades in July 2022, Cheung decked himself out in one of his wardrobe staples – denim. His ensemble comprised of a workwear denim jacket and carpenter denim bottoms with a unique tie-dye pattern, marking his natural sense of style and one of his best looks to date.
