Puma Motorsport Fashion Runway Unveils Malaysia’s Student Fashion Designers


The PUMA Motorsport Fashion Runway concluded with four students from Selvage of Raffles College of Higher Education Kuala Lumpur taking top honours in the finals held on a stylish catwalk set up at the PUMA Motorsports Red Cube at Pavilion, Kuala Lumpur. 
 

Champion - Team Selvage

 

 

Selvage members Kathryn Lagrosa Rao, Onpimon Chavalitcheevin, Fong May Ee, and So Bu Yeow wowed the judges with their unique and innovative designs, and were the clear favourites to win out of the five teams that took part in the grand finals today, walking away with RM 3,000 worth of PUMA cash vouchers and a PUMA Timepiece for their efforts.

"The reason why the team name is Selvage is because Selvage is the strongest part of the fabric. And together, we were really strong and determined, that's why we adopted this name. The efforts were divided equally, and so will the prizes," Kathyrn Lagrosa Rao Leader of Team Selvage.

Second Place - Team Dulce

 

 
Students Sim Shin Yu, Neng Zhen Yang, Lum Sin Yi and Jasay Garces of Dulce, also from Raffles College of Higher Education Kuala Lumpur emerged close runners-up, taking home RM 2000 in PUMA cash vouchers and a PUMA Timepiece.

Teams were judged on their creations by a panel made up of celebrity Julie Woon, fashion magazine editor Samuel Lee and PUMA Head of Marketing Gabriel Yap.  

“A hearty congratulations from PUMA to the winners of the Fashion Runway competition – they truly deserved it. It is really great to see that Malaysia has so much talent in the fashion industry and PUMA Motorsports is happy to have given them this outlet to express their ideas and talent,” said Gabriel Yap, Head of Marketing for PUMA Malaysia.

 

The competition, which has been running since 25th February, invited design students from top Malaysian institutions of higher education to form teams of four and present their best fashion ideas using the latest PUMA Motorsport apparels and accessories. 

 

The top five selected teams were then given a fixed amount of money each to purchase items from the PUMA Motorsport Red Cube and present one male and two female models decked in their most fun, sassy and creative outfits in line with the theme of ‘motorsports’.
  
The PUMA Motorsport Fashion Runway was held as part of the PUMA Motorsports Red Cube campaign, a regional initiative to promote the thrilling new range of PUMA Motorsport Collection and Accessories, and sees a huge pop-up store constructed at Level 3 of the Pavilion that will remain open until 25 March 2012.

LMFAO Concert Postpone To 9th April 2012

LMFAO ROCKS KL LIL LATER
The much anticipated performance In Kuala Lumpur which is slated for March 29 has now been brought forward to 9th April 2012 at Surf Beach, Sunway Lagoon


Samsung Malaysia Electronics Sdn. Bhd., the official title sponsor of the LMFAO LIVE IN MALAYSIA 2012 concert and concert promoter, JS Concert Productions, wish to advise party rockers, that the Kuala Lumpur concert will now be held on 9th April 2012 at Surf Beach, Sunway Lagoon not March 29 as previously scheduled.

All tickets purchased with the earlier date of March 29 will still be 
valid for the April 9, 2012 show.

The change is due to Sky Blu’s back injury.  Sky was diagnosed with 3 herniated discs and, as a result, Sky Blu is unable to accompany his partner Redfoo on the upcoming Asia tour dates.

Not at all fazed by the change, Redfoo and the LMFAO Party Rock Crew are committed to leading their loyal platoon of party rockers across Asia until Sky Blu can return.

In an official statement issued by the Party Rock Crew, Redfoo said: “LMFAO is super group and our mission since the beginning is to change this world into a party planet, one show one at a time! The LMFAO fans, better known as LMFAO-sters, Baby Babies, Party Rockers, Wigglemiesters and Shufflin Zomb Zombs, have supported us through thick and thin all the way to Number One! It is my duty to carry out LMFAO's Party Planet Mission and keep the Party Rockin' with super friends, The Quest Crew, DJ Air, Q Da Danca, Shuffle Bot, Nate & Furr and Charley Pearl all better known as Redfoo & The Party Rock Crew.”

Eager to return to the stage Sky Blu added, "Injuries like these are tough because you can't see them, you can only feel them. It's been challenging but I'm doing everything necessary to be back at 100%. I can't wait to get back out there. Until then, keep the party going!"

Free tickets are still available from Samsung via the Samsung GORENG Krew - Online Video Submission Contest. The winners stand a chance to win free tickets and get to be a part of LMFAO’s entourage in Kuala Lumpur! Participants are asked to make an online video submission on their interpretation of what they think LMFAO would do if they were Malaysian, and the best 3 submissions stand a chance to be part of LMFAO’s entourage. Details are at: www.samsung.com/my or www.facebook.com/samsungmalaysia.

Tickets are also available online at www.ticketpro.com.my and any Rock Corner, 
The Guitar Store, Victoria Music outlets. For enquiries, 
please contact the hotline: 03-7880 7999. 

Concert tickets are priced at RM398 (JS VIP Zone), RM298 (Samsung Zone), RM198 (Party Zone), and RM138 (Chill Out Zone).
