Oxygen Coverstory – DKNY x Petaling Street

By admin

The always fashion-forward Malaysian mag Oxygen asked me to take part in their shoot for their coverstory while I was in KL. This time we were gonna try something a little different and let the story + clothes do the talking. Petaling Street has been in the news as of late because of its iconic location being challenged by talk about new developments coming in vs. refurbishing the historical area.


Up until the shoot, I had never scoured Petaling Street the way I had before. We found lots of great streets, nooks and crannies and places that had been there for decades. One of the shopkeepers told us how astoundingly high his rent was for a small half unit. But that’s the price for prime location. Aside from the main street crowded by tourists and foreign workers posing as local Malaysians (its true, most are from Pakistan or Myanmar), there are side streets that sell stolen goods early in the morning or even restaurants that are some of the best kept secrets in town. I had such a fab time.

Its always a little funny to me when I’m wearing Fall/Winter collections in Asia because we don’t really have the weather to support wool, turtlenecks or even boots, but the combination of clothes worn for the shoot were incredibly comfortable. I absolutely love the fringe dress. They are all from DKNY!! Hope you guys like this one! 😉

    📣 New Workshop Announcement📣 As someone who 📣 New Workshop Announcement📣

As someone who still derives a lot of happiness externally, the journey of going inward helps me synthesise my thoughts, feelings and emotions. I’ve been working non-stop over the past couple of months and in my quiet moments I start to creep into a dark space. Knowing that I have the tools has kept me afloat and I know there are many others who are also in my shoes. 

If you’re feeling stuck or need to feel grounded in a practice, please join me for latest workshop where we get to journey inward and find some answers we are searching for. Always safe, always welcome, we are better together. 

🗓️: Wed, 12 Jul 8-10pm
📍: @wondrouscurations studio
🎟️: RM129 

Limited spots available, both men and women welcomed.

I haven’t had bangs since I was a kid and it’s always fun to see what their plans are each day. My blonde is starting to show, will need to pop by for a colour touch up again at @shawncutlergroup!

While I’m going through my ebbs and flows of life, I’m incredibly grateful to connect with so many people and playing a part in their journey of self-discovery and healing. It always reminds me of what I need to work on as I sit through this experience.

Thank you everyone for coming. 🙏🏻
