He launched his eponymous fashion brand ANGUS TSUI in 2014.[3] He started by utilizing prints with a neutral style, but started gradually incorporating more futuristic style in his designs, adding elements inspired by exoskeletons and bones that used many more pieces of fabric than were typical in a garment.[4]

R. Giger, at London Fashion Week Spring 2025,[3] and his sequel "GIGER Vol. 2" was displayed at London Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2025.[5] His Autumn/Winter 2026 collection "404: Safety Not Found", which utilized vegan leather to depict wounded flesh,[14] was inspired by Hellraiser and also debuted at London Fashion Week.[7]
He was awarded the Redress Design Award Hong Kong People's Award in 2012, and went on to win the Redress Design Award Alumni Prize in both 2017 and 2024 and the Redress Design Award All-Star Prize in 2020.[1] He was also shortlisted for the Vogue Singapore x BMW Innovation Prize in 2024.[15] He serves as a frequent guest judge at the Redress Design Awards.[1]
