Fresh from landmark openings in Kuala Lumpur, Rizman Ruzaini presented ‘Rebirth’, a reinvention of RR by Rizman Ruzaini. The monogram is boldly emblazoned across tailored shirts, jackets, and trousers, while denim makes its debut, adding fresh texture to the collection. Metallic accents—from footwear to accessories—lend each piece a luminous edge.

Mimpikita showcased a trilogy of collections, exploring the shifting light from dawn to dusk. ‘Timelapse’ opens with Kita&Co.’s contemporary streetwear, oversized tailoring, and utility details that define individuality. The second chapter translates golden-hour landscapes into prints on signature silhouettes. Mimpikita Bespoke concludes the series with sculptural shapes and hand-applied beadwork, crafted for women who own the room.

Fiziwoo delivered a dual narrative this year, each collection a dialogue between elegance and heritage. The first, inspired by Wallis Simpson, drapes the body in sleek, sculpted silhouettes, punctuated with intricate embroidery that whispers of royal sophistication. The second, ‘Crowned In Thread’, celebrates Songket, transforming the region’s heritage fabric into contemporary expressions, including form-fitting gowns and Kebaya-inspired ensembles.

Larney teams up with Afiq M, merging distinct visions into a single collection. Soft femininity flows into sharp tailoring, producing looks that are at once delicate and commanding. The palette—green, white, black, and ivory—anchors the experimentation: brick-orange suits worn over burgundy shirts and oversized green jackets draped over black maxi skirts. Every ensemble feels intentional, every pairing exudes understated sophistication.

Masyadi Mansoor’s ‘Legend Dystophia’ brings folklore to the runway. Classic silhouettes are reinvented through unexpected textures and daring fabric play, from buttery leather to layered plaids. His signature puffers, softened with lace, navigate the tension between sculptural volume and delicate intimacy, turning heritage into something fiercely modern.
