Suria KLCC Fashion Flair Contest 2004

Twelve gutsy, young Malaysian fashionistas displayed their stunning flair for fashion in impressive 1950s influenced fashion style at the Suria KLCC Fashion Flair Contest, which took place at the Centre Court, Concourse level of Suria KLCC on 23 April 2004.

Themed the “Riviera 50s”, the twelve ladies, who were the finalists of the Suria KLCC Fashion Flair Contest, were required to come in black pants or black skirts and their glamorous 1950s ensembles.  They were given RM300 a week earlier to shop for their ensembles including the top and accessories only from Suria KLCC’s specialty stores (excluding anchor departmental stores like Isetan and Parkson Grand).  

The five judges, Dayang Nor Camelia, Malaysia’s popular singer, Sharifah Kirana, Fashion Designer, Melvin Lam, Publisher of V-Mag Magazine, Natasha Hashim, last year’s Fashion Flair winner and Rafidah Jalil, Senior Marketing Manager of Suria KLCC and also the Head Judge, selected the three winners with the best Fashion Flair.  

“Femininity and glamour are the key elements, thus paying attention to details and playing mix-and-match with accessories like pretty corsages or bows to add on to the effects of glamour were some of the main basics that we judges were looking for,” said Datin Rafidah Jalil.

“The aim of running these events is to showcase and bring out the distinctive characteristics of fashion at Suria KLCC, which include creativity, diversity, variety and affordability, and to further establish our centre as THE ‘fashion centre’,” added Datin Rafidah.

The winners of the fashion flair were Shariffah Nadia bt. Syed Alwi Alhabshi (1st Prize winner), Ho Pei Shi (2nd prize winner) and Zaiyanis Bt. Mohamad Zin (3rd prize winner).
