HitzFm & Twisties SuperstarzX Drops by at ZALORA Malaysia!

It was a normal Wednesday morning at the ZALORA Malaysia headquarters, except this time around you could hear the sound of people singing! I reached the office and sat down while wondering what the commotion was, and then I remembered, we’re having visitors today: The HitzFm & Twisties SuperstarzX finalists!

Behind-the-Scenes: Safiyya TV9 & ZALORA for Hijabster Fashion – First Episode SPECIAL

December 28, Friday, ZALORA—There was once an empty space in the fashion world for hijabster fashion—or, modern Muslim fashion for women. But over the years, the blankness is slowly being filled and filled energetically; its simplicity is no longer plain and simple. This innocent, ripe ground is now continuously being explored with creativity and ambition—with an almost zesty impatience and vibrant enthusiasm that it becomes an irresistible form of artistic expression. It adapts a long history of classic and modern fashion of Western and Oriental influences in combinations that are distinctively and beautifully fit for a hijabster—with that subtle, definite touch of local identity. Hijabster fashion is no different from other fashions in its hope: to show a girl’s independence,… Read More →

ZALORA-MAKNA Wears Pink Event

We often try not to think of our breasts, at least not the way MAKNA does and have to; yet MAKNA’s job is not to keep them out of sight, but full-on in the mind, as they go about educating, researching, and raising awareness as well as the means to keep the conversation about breast cancer going. And on one hot Saturday, November 3, 2012, MAKNA paired up with ZALORA for a day that’s not only pink in meaning and seriousness, but also fun and pleasure: a match-up worth remembering and thinking over. The MAKNA Team with Co-Founder/Managing Director Wee Jonn Leow Thus, on this day, amidst wine (and juice) and tasty pastries (and sandwiches) at Amadeus of Life Centre,… Read More →

8TV Quickie Loves ZALORA!

Wednesday afternoon, November 14, four TV personalities stepped into ZALORA’s studio—Adam, Ryan, Zher, and Naqib of 8TV Quickie—to show their love for ZALORA in the “I Love ZALORA” campaign. As I walked in, I saw Zher in front of the large vanity mirror, getting her make-up done, Adam looking smart and well-dressed from his photo-shoot, and Ryan in his shorts, prepping trying to get into clothes and shoes for his own shoot—Naqib appeared a little later. Also, not knowing what to do when people from TV were actually real, I stood by and watched with wide eyes; they stood behind the camera and were immediately ready, went straight for it—their words flowed easily and they posed till the cameras stopped… Read More →
