The labels include KAVA (Brunei), KONG (Cambodia), Shella Merina Personal Designs (Indonesia), Billy L’amour de Ma Vie (Laos), phyn Studio (Malaysia), Glam Mabel (Myanmar), Paraluman by Bea Samson (Philippines), SILVU (Singapore), Arataweekend (Thailand) and Tu Bong (Vietnam).




亞航(數碼化、轉型、企業服務)副集團首席執行員 Aireen Omar說:“東盟不僅是一個擁有眾多美麗的景點的區域,而且人才濟濟。在過去三年中,亞航Runway Ready設計師選拔大賽已經成功挖掘許多東盟人才並提供他們踏上時尚界的平臺。該選拔賽也為他們提供了許多機會,實現了他們的夢想,而且他們還可以從我們的時尚界合作夥伴那裏學習如何應用數據營銷,從中索取有用的行業知識。我們希望他們的成功將繼續激勵東盟地區的年輕設計師展翅高飛。”

AirAsia Deputy Group CEO Digital, Transformation and Corporate Services Aireen Omar said, “Asean is not just a region with many breathtaking destinations, it is also blessed with abundant talent. Over the past three years, AirAsia Runway Ready Designer Search has become a platform for Asean talent to catapult their careers in the region’s fashion industry. The competition has also opened doors for them to turn their dreams into reality and enabled them to learn valuable insights not just in e-commerce but also how to apply digital marketing from our fashion industry partners. We hope their success will continue to inspire young talent in the region to spread their wings and fly further.”





吉隆坡時裝周創辦人 Andrew Tan 說:“亞航是我們最忠誠的合作夥伴。他們的支持確實讓吉隆坡時裝周更加精彩。在過去的四年裏,亞航的團隊將我們送到了許多不同的地方,我認為這是吉隆坡時裝周能夠在東盟許多不同國家加強我們品牌印象的重要原因。”

設計師們今天在選拔賽經過多輪審判,評審針對其作品中的設計創意、原創性、一致性、是否符合東盟主題、實用性及舞臺展示潛力作出評論。選拔賽的評審團有亞航 (數碼化、轉型、企業服務) 副集團首席執行員 Aireen Omar、吉隆坡時裝周創辦人 Andrew Tan、FashionValet 行銷主管 Nadia Alisya、著名設計師F izi Woo、Female 雜誌主編楊美玲、海鷗集團董事經理兼設計師品牌 Infinence 的創始人陳景崗、名人造型師 Min Lun 及大馬名模 Tinie。

Founder of KL Fashion Week Andrew Tan said, “One of our most committed partners is none other than AirAsia. Their support has truly let the Kuala Lumpur Fashion Week fly. For the past four years, the AirAsia team has worked tirelessly to send us to many different locations which I believe is a huge part of the reason that Kuala Lumpur Fashion Week has been able to strengthen its brand in many different countries in Asean.”

The aspiring designers went through extensive rounds of judging and were selected based on their design creativity, originality and consistency of their collection, adherence to the Asean theme, practicality as well as stage presentation potential.
