I’m not really happy about how these pictures don’t express how i feel about Adila Long’s collection as i saw them exhibited on the runway. There is nothing like admiring things with your own eyes. Your REAL eyes. (Not through a camera lens, or through instagram filters even). All i could think about was how majestic some of the outfits looked and which ones i could wear to a majlis should the occasion arise.
For now i guess you just have to be content with these pictures.
FEMME SECRÈTE, a direct translation from French would be Female Secret, defines FIZIWOO’s interpretation of femininity with its Cruise 2015/16 collection.
Fiziwoo is somewhat a new brand to me. I don’t know it very well, yet with the little i’ve seen so far, what i’ve garnered is its strong sense of identity that sets it apart from the rest of the designers in the local scene. I mean, you just have to look at the runway photos yourself and you can see what i mean. The style that is interpreted has certain quirks that push the edge, so close that at some points i’m not even sure i like it. I personally think that’s quite challenging in fashion- when you design something that makes people uncomfortable, and then question, “Can i wear that? Would i wear that? Can i pull it off? Do i want to pull it off?!”
Out of this whole collection, there are maybe two or three outfits that i don’t want to pull off,
but for the rest of it- whatever fantasy world Fiziwoo has created in his head, i want in.
When i was in high school, Eclipse was most of the girls’ first choice to go to for a prom dress. It’s nothing short of respectful that almost two decades on, the label is still standing strong and upbeat in designs that are still on our current wish lists. I just walked into Eclipse a couple of months back with just the intention to ‘look’ and came out with a pair of shoes -_-
Okay fine. I came out with two pairs of shoes.
“This is an exuberant collection, heavy on prints; infused with colour and texture. I call it real fashion, because it’s going to give people something to ‘want’ and something to ‘wear’. Suffice to say, interest in owning pieces from this collection is going to go far beyond the loyal customers. This collection has feel-good, look-good clothes, loaded with an appealing sense of optimistic joie de vivre.”

You really should click to view the whole post, cos the last few dresses on the runway are practically collectibles for life. Not to mention they appeal to the different type of princesses every girl has inside of them (even the dark broody ones).
“Skies were purple with streaks of orange, it was that evening in Paris, as Khoon Hooi took a stroll in the intimate Parc Monceau, framed by beautiful wrought iron fences painted in black and gold with ornate gates. The birds were gliding.
Maple leaves that were scattered on the ground danced to the rhythm of the autumn wind, making a light rustle, like nature’s murmuring whisper.
It was a breathtaking scene.
Khoon Hooi Fall 2015 is the dancing maple leaf.
Inspired by the magnificent autumn scene in Parc Monceau, it is a tribute to the beauty of Khoon Hooi’s favourite season itself – Autumn.
This collection shows a warm and strong feminine palette to illustrate different shades of the changing skies and the reflection of lights on the lake.
The materials were chosen carefully to encapsulate the momentary feeling of marvelling such beauty, like how mongolian fur and delicate ostrich feathers were used to personify the movement, rustle and texture of the autumn leaves.
Khoon Hooi Fall Winter 2015 is the marking of autumn beauty.”
Oh i could so see myself wearing the outfit on the right, splashing about in gold for some weekend play!

Hui Lai Fun 1929-2021 ☁️
As a child, you would take me to Chinatown near Soho and show me off to a different friend every few steps we walked. You seemed to know everyone in the restaurant. And when I couldn’t reply in Cantonese, you’d cluck loudly what a shameful Chinese granddaughter I was for not speaking my mother tongue.
When I was a teen, you’d STILL take to the SAME dim sum restaurant in Chinatown; but we bumped into less people cos more of your friends had passed on.
When I was in my 20s, you’d look so confused every time I told you a different boyfriend’s name 🧐 and call me naughty for changing them too often. 😂
You were outspoken, funny and daring. Once, i took you to the Tate where there was a piece of rope exhibited on the ground, as part of a Dadaism contemporary art show. You said so loudly, “What is this?! I also can do!” not believing it was art, and proceeded to nudge it with your foot much to my horror. 😂
You had ailments towards the end of your life, like walking difficulties and Alzheimer’s, but they could stimes magically disappear. Like when you jumped out of the car in Seremban without your wheelchair when you wanted to eat hakka mee, and gave everyone a heart attack. 🍜 All your 3 children were shouting cos they thought you fell out, but you were already zooming towards the restaurant 🏃🏻♀️😂
So many funny moments with you.
Grateful for them.
Grateful i got to be one of your four granddaughters.
[you also had a grandson and a great grandson. Im sorry the rest of us took / am taking so long.]
Grateful you are at peace and reunited with Yeye.
🤍🤍🤍

We demand:
1) The resignation of Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin.
2) The convening of Parliament
- Malaysia has gone without Parlimen for 181 days since 1st March 2020.
‼️Trigger warning❤️🩹Recap of a bunch of superWTF moments for me:
- the #raisethewhiteflag #benderaputih movement was kickstarted by the rakyat to help those in desperate need of food (ppl eating leaves/stray dogs?! Stealing pet food to feed their kids?!) Then threatened that it’s illegal/political. How liddis
- People are isolated, broke, committing suicide. Disallowing parks to open or hikes in nature (Socially-distanced! Lowers depression!) as part of SOP makes no sense. [5.6.21 lifting in certain states]
- This grand plan to give $ to the people from their own EPF / retirement fund… Daymn, what happened to all that 1MDB mahnay?
- Business-owners being slapped with RM10k fines for tiny misdemeanours of them trying to run business past a certain hour / langgar SOP lain. Dahlah struggling to stay afloat… how pitiful for them!
- That amayzing RM75mil app which we all know coulda cost less than 10% of that
- While the attention is on trying to save the economy, unscrupulous actions in raping our country of its remaining natural resources (and animal poaching!) goes on in the bg💔
The worst is yet to come with the new variants which are more aggressive and subtle, while our hospitals are already packed to the brim.
There is so much to think of and worry about. So many communities with no support or rights - orang asli, foreign workers, refugees, etc.
There is so much potential in younger, smarter, HONEST and more compassionate leaders who can take our country forward.
I have hope.
We all have hope.
We should be able to choose whom we want to lead us.
