Fashion is a form of self-expression and a reflection of lifestyle, balancing personal values with contemporary style. Modest fashion, in particular, has won popularity among the fashion connoisseurs; it appeals to everyone and thrives on inclusivity.
The School of Hospitality and Creative Arts (SHCA) embraces every opportunity to showcase its wealth of creative work. On November 21, Management and Science University (MSU) witnessed Modest Selangor Runway 2024 in conjunction with MSU Fashion Week.
An overlap between modest fashion and the sustainability movement, emphasising eternal, durable pieces, MSU Modest Selangor Runway stands as a testament to the aspiring designers’ dedication to preserving and reviving Malaysian heritage.
Carrying the theme of Championing Heritage & Cultural Appreciation, the runway featured a unique showcase inspired by the rich heritage of Malaysia’s 14 states, celebrating unity in diversity, artistic skills, and design brilliance of five final-year projects (Bachelor in Fashion Design with Marketing) and Fashion Design Realisation (Diploma in Fashion Design) students.
Twelve designers contributed one garment each to the menswear collection.
Each of the 17 designers in the womenswear collection presented a unique garment.
The runway also included four designers from UEDA College of Fashion, who presented 10 garments as part of the MSU X UEDA Gakuen Collection 2024. The collection embodied the theme of cultural representation in Japan.
Additionally, the runway showcased the MSU HIJAB X MSU Alumni collection. The 10 abayas, designed by alumnus Abdullah Iqbal, were perfectly complemented by hijabs created by nine designers from the School.
Professor Tan Sri Dato’ Wira Dr. Mohd Shukri Ab Yajid, President and Founder of MSU; Professor Puan Sri Dato Dr. Junainah Abdul Hamid, Vice Chancellor of MSU; Dr. Hitoshi Tajima, President of UEDA College of Fashion, Japan; Makoto Morishita, MSU Board of Governors; Professor Dr. Abdul Jalil Ghazali, Senior Vice President for Industry Linkage & Entrepreneurship; and Azizul Jamaludin, the Dean of SHCA.
From the ticket sales revenue of the Modest Selangor Runway, RM5,000 was donated to Yayasan MSU, the University's foundation.
MSU Modest Selangor Runway, along with the Fashion Week, was sponsored by Desa Alam Batik, Nini Marini, Bandoru, Ijan LBJohnson Catering, and ENCORIUM.
The Modest Selangor Runway echoed the United Nations’s Sustainable Development Goals, SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals), by promoting sustainable fashion and fostering collaborative efforts among designers.
On November 13, two students from MSU represented the 10th edition of the Guliacarla Cecchi International Competition, organised by Premio Guliacarla Cecchi in Florence, Italy. Out of nine applicants from MSU, Arina Zahiralmas and Indah Sharas Wati, students of the Bachelor in Fashion with Marketing (Hons) programme, were selected to showcase their collections, exemplifying empowering and practical learning experiences.
Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings by Subject 2024 acknowledged MSU World Top 51-100 for Art and Design and number one in Malaysia.
