Ladies, the highly-anticipated collection for Raya 2021 from our darling Malaysian fashion designer, Melinda Looi is here!
Straight from the vibrant and extensive collection of called Kawan (as in “friend” in Malay), her vibrant and quirky (as always) creations are a reflection of the designer’s love for marrying style elements from various traditional looks into a new format palatable for the adventurous fashion crowd.
If, this Eid, no matter how low-key it gets for many us, you would like to dress to the nines in bold colors, prints, patterns and silhouettes from a designer’s perspective, you have to give the collection a peek!
The Kawan collection features an array of mod traditional two-pieces that’s bold and fun. The batik sarong can be chosen according to your preference, for the kebaya labuh series that is my favorite from the whole collection.
Aside from the kebaya labuh two-pieces, there are baju kedah, baju pahang, kaftan with inner bias dresses and lace kebaya options.
For a baju raya that isn’t going to hold back this year, Melinda sure knows how to tease us with her intricate embroidery, fun patchwork detailing that takes the form of kuih lapis, nasi lemak and biskut tin!
Malaysia’s cultural melting pot is perfectly embodied in her newest Raya collection that also includes separate pieces like trousers, knit jumpers, reversible wrap skirts, jersey tops and satin robes. If you’re a fashion-savvy dude with a love of unexpected designs, her creations include you as well! Baju kedah for men is also available.
Have friends or family members who are always excited to wear a bold designer’s masterpiece? Be sure to direct them here so they can take a look!
Without further ado, check them out and enjoy!
