Raya 2023: 6 Homegrown accessory brands to shop from this Eid

As we count down the days to be reunited with loved ones for the holidays, make the best of this wonderful opportunity to refresh your Raya wardrobe with stylish handbags that match your festive ‘fits, and comfy shoes that make visiting multiple open houses a breeze. If you’re unsure where to start, we’re here to help! From Nelissa Hilman’s dreamlike heels to Bonia’s nostalgic range, here are six capsule collections by local designers to browse through this season.

No stranger to the local fashion scene, Nelissa Hilman returns with a collection that elegantly speaks of comfort. For those looking for minimalism with a touch of that ‘wow’ factor, a pair of stiletto pumps with a gem-embellished strap is the perfect pick as it gives you height and sparkle whenever you slip into them. Alternatively, the minimalist Aura ankle-strap heel sandals and the Rosie embellished square-toe wedges with twin straps can be your cosy companions for the house visits you will make throughout the month.

Just in time for Raya, Bonia teams up with Malaysian actress Amelia Henderson on a curated collection titled ‘B-Rasa Sayang,’ which is inspired by the joy found in retro nostalgia. Bold colours such as royal blue and burnt orange can be seen across the collection, reflected in the chic sling bag and lightweight shoulder bag made of crocodile leather. In addition, its silver sandals and the stylishly durable trainers will be sure to turn heads during Raya.

Kulet, a champion of comfort and timeless designs, outdoes itself this year with a sophisticated collection in a monochromatic palette that’d do well beyond the Raya season. There are seven unique designs offered, with key pieces including heeled sandals made of synthetic leather and flat sandals with an asymmetric strap. Unlike restrictive shoes, its open-toed designes allow your feet to breathe and make it easier for you to walk around comfortably.

Nazifi Nasri, a homegrown brand specialising in leather goods, launched its coveted Mini Oked bag in a slew of colours this year, which drove its fans into a frenzy even before its official release. This stunner is made of animal-free leather and can be worn in two ways: as a handbag or as a cross-body with an adjustable strap. In addition, you can pair your bag with the brand’s sandals, specifically the Kyril and Juna, which provide both comfort and style.
