What’s on the Corner, Little Jack Horner?

Comments (4) Events, Fashion

Smack in the heart of KL, is one of the busiest roads in the city.
And on this bustling road, is a corner.
And a very spacious corner it is too.
And on this corner, cordoned off in bright red, is an area in construction.

If you’re driving along Jalan Bukit Bintang, it’d be hard to miss it as the lipstick red stands out starkly in the bright afternoon sun with the words STYLO on it in caps.

Stylo Fashion Cube, Pavilion

Behold Malaysia’s first Fashion Cube!
Well, incomplete Fashion Cube, but one in the making nevertheless.

Taking after the trend of fabulous fashion cubes in Melbourne, Milan, Paris and New York, I figure they’re trying to reenact the glitz and glamour of the fashion shows there.

Stylo Fashion Cube, Pavilion
It’s to have a 20-metre runway in the middle with a seating capacity of 400 people. And not just typical seats, but tiered ones. (read: no more cursing and craning of necks only to get 3-second glimpses)

The cube’s to be completed in time for Stylo KL Fashion Festival (15-23 March 2008), which is also in conjunction with the 10th F1 celebration in KL.

Reported earlier this month in the NST, they stated Datuk Nancy Yeoh proclaiming that this will not be an ordinary show.

From the NST (link) – “There will be no traders, buyers or the latest collections paraded on the runways. Instead, there will be entertainment, celebrities and the who’s-who of the city’s social circuit having the time of their lives. Fashion is just another excuse to party.”

Yeah we’ve heard it all before, but we have to give it to her for simply declaring that fashion’s just another excuse to party. You can’t hate her for being honest.

The Star also did a write-up on it today *here*

The slew of fashion shows kick off this Saturday with a collaboration between L’Oréal Professionnel, Shu Uemura, and quirky designer Melinda Looi.

A week straight of fashion shows.
Day and night.
Involving brands and designers the likes of Michael Ong, Tom Abang Saufi, Jendela Batik, Edric Ong, Rizalman Ibrahim, Ben di Lisi, Mercedes-Benz, MasterCard Worldwide, Pernod Ricard, Corum Swiss Timepieces, Hilton Kuala Lumpur, BritishIndia and others.

I was trying to have an air of nonchalance concerning it, then others have been asking/msning me online whether i’m going, making me excited as well >.<

******************

Went to the Anya Hindmarch fashion show at Pavilion just now.
Everyone was in pretty subdued and safe colours… except for SluttyShah.

The boy popped in (welcoming) colour like a jellybean *munch*
