In 2019, Lo collaborated with fellow member Keung To on the subunit single "B.M.G. – Be My Girl," a dance-pop track that highlighted their chemistry and helped expand Mirror's reach in Hong Kong's Cantopop scene.[16] From 2020 to 2022, Mirror experienced a significant surge in popularity amid Hong Kong's social challenges and the COVID-19 pandemic, with the group becoming a symbol of local pride and reviving interest in Canto-pop.[17] Key milestones included the release of their first studio album One and All on 20 January 2021, which debuted at number one on Hong Kong charts and featured Lo's contributions to tracks emphasizing group unity.[17][18] The lead single "Warrior" achieved commercial success, topping local airplay charts and earning multiple awards, while Lo's dance performances in promotions amplified the song's visual impact.[17] The group's expansion into live events underscored their growing fanbase, with the "ONE & ALL LIVE" concert series held over six nights in May 2021 at KITEC Star Hall, drawing thousands and showcasing Lo's central role in high-energy choreographed sets.[19] Later that year, Mirror headlined the "MOOV LIVE: Music on the Road" event on December 7–8, 2021, performing hits like "One and All" to a virtual and live audience, further solidifying their status as Hong Kong's premier boy band.[20] Variety show appearances on ViuTV, such as Mirror Go and Good Night Show spin-offs, allowed Lo and the members to engage fans through challenges and behind-the-scenes content, fostering a dedicated following known for sold-out merchandise and social media trends.[16] By 2022, Mirror's activities had cultivated a massive local fanbase, with Lo's contributions as a performer helping drive the group's cultural phenomenon.[21]Solo development (2020–2025)
Anson Lo initiated his solo music career in February 2020 with the release of his debut single "A Lifelong Mission" (一所懸命), a dance-pop track that showcased his vocal and performance skills while establishing his independence beyond his role in the boy group Mirror.[22] The single's success, including winning the Best New Artist Gold Award at the 43rd RTHK Top 10 Gold Songs Awards, highlighted his growing individual appeal amid the challenges of balancing group commitments with personal artistic expression.[22] Expanding into acting, Lo secured a breakthrough role in 2021 as Ling Siu-muk in the Hong Kong version of the romantic comedy series Ossan's Love, where his depiction of a heartbroken office worker contributed to the show's popularity as a pioneering boys' love drama in the region.[23] This performance marked a pivotal shift, allowing him to demonstrate dramatic range and emotional depth, which he later described as a rewarding challenge in exploring vulnerability on screen.[24] By 2023, Lo further diversified his career by launching ALLOVER, his unisex clothing brand on January 27, inspired by his lifelong passion for fashion and a desire to foster confidence and connection among fans through timeless, comfortable designs.[25] The brand's debut collection, "Before We Were Strangers," reflected his evolution from performer to entrepreneur, emphasizing personal authenticity after years of navigating public scrutiny.[25] Lo's solo trajectory gained momentum in July 2023 with "THE STAGE" In My Sight Solo Concert at AsiaWorld-Expo, a sold-out series of four shows that celebrated his dance prowess and fan engagement, solidifying his status as a live performer capable of commanding large arenas independently.[26] That same year, he starred as the CEO character Timo in the Hong Kong remake of Business Proposal, a romantic comedy that praised his charismatic lead presence and helped expand his television footprint.[27] In 2024, Lo continued his artistic growth with the heist film The Moon Thieves, portraying a key role in a ensemble cast alongside fellow Mirror member Edan Lui, which explored themes of crime and camaraderie and received attention for its blend of action and Cantopop star power.[28] Musically, he released the introspective single "MY LIFE" in January 2024, addressing personal resilience amid fame's pressures, followed by additional singles such as "Lemonade" later in 2025.[29][30] By 2025, Lo's multifaceted development intensified with his attendance at Paris Fashion Week in June 2024 for the Kenzo Spring/Summer 2025 show, where his stylish appearance underscored his rising influence in global fashion circles.[31] He followed this with a prominent role at Milan Fashion Week in February 2025, attending Giuseppe Zanotti's Fall/Winter 2025 presentation and announcing a collaborative capsule collection titled "Giuseppe for Anson Lo," featuring reimagined unisex footwear and accessories that merged his creative vision with the brand's luxury heritage.[32] The March 2025 release of the collection marked him as the first Hong Kong artist to partner with the Italian label, driven by his motivation to infuse music-inspired flair into high fashion.[5] Complementing this, his single "Heartbreaker" in March 2025 tackled themes of criticism and self-empowerment, reflecting ongoing personal challenges in maintaining authenticity under public gaze. Throughout this period, Lo's evolution from a Mirror member to a versatile artist was fueled by a commitment to self-expression and fan connection, despite hurdles like intense media scrutiny and the demands of multitasking across music, acting, and business.[25] His upcoming "KINGDOM" Live 2025 concert, scheduled for December 6–9 at AsiaWorld-Expo, represents a career milestone, promising innovative staging and setlists that encapsulate his journey toward artistic sovereignty.[6]Discography

As the first Hong Kong artist to partner with the Italian luxury footwear and accessories house, Lo co-designed a limited-edition line including unisex shoes and a tote bag, launched on March 27, 2025, which fused his artistic flair with the brand's eclectic motifs to appeal to a global audience.[32][99] Lo has also served as a brand ambassador for Bulgari since 2021, starring in campaigns for the B.zero1 collection that emphasize bold innovation and personal expression, enhancing his sophisticated public persona through elegant jewelry and watch endorsements. These roles and appearances have elevated his profile beyond entertainment, positioning him as a key influencer in luxury fashion circles and inspiring fans with his versatile, trendsetting approach.[100]Clothing brand
In 2023, Anson Lo launched his unisex fashion label ALLOVER, a brand centered on themes of love and emotional connection rather than fleeting trends.[101] The name ALLOVER serves as a portmanteau of "AL LOVER," with "AL" derived from Lo's initials, while also evoking "all over" to signify ubiquity and inclusivity in spreading affection through apparel.[102] Collections are structured as chapters in an ongoing romance novel, each exploring human interactions and sentiments to foster a personal bond with wearers.[103] The debut collection, titled "Before We Were Strangers," was released on February 14, 2023, after three years of development and production starting in February 2022.[25] It featured 14 pieces of ready-to-wear apparel, including T-shirts, sweaters, sweatpants, baseball caps, bucket hats, and a denim jacket, emphasizing simple, elegant, and comfortable designs in soft, buttery fabrics.[25] Targeted at Lo's fans, known as Sontos, and a broader audience seeking confident, romantic everyday wear, the line incorporated personal touches like encouraging quotes on care labels to inspire positivity.[25] Lo has been deeply involved in the brand's creative process, personally designing every piece, selecting materials for their tactile quality, and guiding the marketing narrative to align with his vision of love as a core ethos.[25] Subsequent releases, such as "The Chapter One Plus" in June 2023, expanded the apparel offerings with items like shimmery-accented T-shirts, Y2K-inspired baggy sweatpants, puff-print hoodies, and hats in black and pink, available at select Lane Crawford stores.[103] By 2025, ALLOVER had grown to include multiple chapters up to Chapter Seven, alongside the introduction of the ALLOVER BABIES sub-line in 2024, which offers lifestyle products and accessories like capsule mugs, glass sets, and wooden tissue boxes alongside cute apparel tees.[102] This expansion reflects the brand's evolution into a wider range of ready-to-wear, accessories, and home items, maintaining Lo's signature romantic and inclusive aesthetic.[101]Awards and nominations
