Lily&Orkid Blossoms With Fine Elegance at FashFab KL

Who would have thought that from selling Preloved could turn oneself into a homegrown Designer Label for the fashionably chic and stylish trends today! Organized by Sneaky Zombie, in partnership with Carousell, Amber Chia Academy and The Imaginarium, presents FashFab KL, a quarterly fringe fashion night featuring homegrown designer label, Lily&Orkid.

At the event today, we were entertained with a wonderfully mesmerizing fashion show of Lily&Orkid designs. It was just beautiful beyond words, especially the detailing of each piece of fabric and design. It is all HANDSEWN, HANDMADE! It takes up to 1 to 3 days to produce 1 outfit and it's limited 5 piece per design.

A little background of Lily&Orkid an How it all began?

Nuriylia Insyirah began selling preloved clothes on Carousell marketplace. She manage to build her reputation as a top Carouseller with over 100 positive reviews by customers.

Just last year 2017, she teamed up with her friend Nadia Othman, to launch their own fashion line and since then, Lily&Orkid was born! They market limited collections of design and it is selling like hot cakes over at Carousell! Just recently, they sold over 40 pieces (priced at RM499) of one of these designs due to customers demand!

Today, they were given the chance to showcase their designs with the models today from Amber Chia Academy at FashFab KL, an exclusive fashion trunk show on Thursday, 2nd August 2018 at The Imaginarium, New Wing, 1 Utama Shopping Centre.

Why Lily&Orkid?
Lily represents the soft sophisticated and romantic side of every woman, whilst Orkid represents the strong, bold and the unafraid! For those who love style without compromising quality, Lily&Orkid is designed for the love of simplicity with sass and fearlessness as said by Nuriylia.

I personally fell in love with their collection, especially this one below!

Who is FashFab KL?
It's a platform that allows budding designers and new designers to present their pieces directly to the public, media and industry insiders. Just like today's event, guests are given the opportunity to meet the designer in person and preview or purchase the displayed pieces on the spot! In future, look out for more of FashFab KL, as they will promote more local designers such as Nuriylia & Nadia to the public. This is a great effort organized by Sneaky Zombie along with the great support of the partnerships from Carousell, Amber Chia Academy and The Imaginarium, to further uplift and inspire more young Malaysian designers; In hopes that more corporations like them will follow suit to support their initiative.
