‘Malaysia
Fashion Week 2018’ sets to take on the world under the New Malaysia.
The new
Malaysia has inspired the upcoming Malaysia Fashion Week 2018 (MFW 2018) with “61
years of Malaysia” art showcase and an intensified effort to push the Malaysian
fashion scene to the world. MFW 2018 Fashion, Art and Beauty will be held in
Publika, Kuala Lumpur from 19-25 November 2018.
Organised by STYLO International, MFW 2018 is
supported by Government Agencies, namely the Ministry of Consumer Trade and
Consumer Affairs (KPDNHEP), Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation
(MATRADE), Tourism Malaysia, Invest Selangor and the Kuala Lumpur City Hall
(DBKL).
It will be working
alongside the Malaysian Bumiputra Designers Association (MBDA), Modestyle Asia
and Asia Fashion Inc.
Going into
its 5th year, MFW 2018, a Trade Fashion Week continues to promote
innovative fashion with international
business matching and trade talks with over 100 retail booths including
China, Indonesia, Philippines, Taiwan, Vietnam and Singapore.
Malaysia Fashion Week goes out
According to Datuk
Nancy Yeoh-Reissiger, Chairman of Malaysia Fashion Week, “Fashion week for ‘entertainment’ is a thing of the
past. We need real business – trade. Trade is the key word whether for domestic
and international consumption. MFW has such made in-roads into the US and
China.”
“MFW will
have its first showcase in Miami in July 2019 in conjunction with the Miami
Fashion Week (MFW will be held a week before) and will showcase all the things
Malaysia is known for besides the sun – cruisewear, Modestyle and menswear.
“We are
more than ready to penetrate into the huge and lucrative markets of Latin
America and the Carribean,” she added. Norsham Blasko has been appointed as the
Chair of MFW, United States.
Co-chairing MFW 2018 is Bon Zainal, President of
Bumiputra Designers Association (BDA).
“While Datuk Nancy is concentrating on marketing
Malaysia to the world, I am tasked with
preparing the Malaysian designers for the domestic market with KPDNHEP, Invest
Selangor, DBKL and Tourism Malaysia and then, eventually, exporting them with
the help of MATRADE. All under the wholesome banner of Malaysia,” said Bon.
Infusing Art into MFW
MFW 2018 will be
infused with “art” apart from fashion and beauty. “61 years of
Malaysia” art will showcase the works of Emerging Artists, a Royal Artist and Street Artists.
“Malaysia
has a lot of talented artists. But due to limited finance, they find it tough
to showcase their works in art galleries anywhere. So we are grateful that MFW
2018 gives
these emerging artists a great platform to showcase their works,” said Zoe Wu, curator of the Emerging Artists show. “Our artists
are from 15 to 70 years old, so they are naturally very excited.”
There will also be an exclusive Art Exhibition helmed by Emerging Artist,
YAM Tunku
Kamariah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah Binti Almarhum Baginda Al-Mutawakkil
Alallah Sultan Iskandar Al-Haj Puteri Johor who will showcase her works
for the first time in Malaysia. Her first solo exhibition was in San Francisco
and she will be exhibiting 50 pieces of artwork.
Nur Sirajuddin
or known as MYTHO, street artist is tasked to creating a mural of “61 years of
Malaysia” with another major street artist Katun said, “Malaysian street
artists, such as Katu has taken the street art scene by storm, going places
like France, New York, Dubai and Belgium.
“There are
also many art collectors around the world set their eyes on Malaysian art
because of our unique and diverse cultures. We need to further boost our
efforts to promote Malaysian artists and their works,” adds MYTHO.
The highlight of MFW 2018 will be live
painting of “61 years of Malaysia” on a huge 8 feet x 12 feet canvas by 16
street artists. This live painting gives the street artists to express their
own interpretation of the movement of Malaysia over the past 6 decades.
The seven-day event will be further lit up with
lifestyle brands including unique caravan, classic cars and bikes. The
supporting partners of MFW 2018 are:
