L'OFFICIEL Malaysia - November 2023

في هذه القضية

In today’s fast-paced digital world, it is easy to assume that traditional modes of self-expression have become obsolete, overshadowed by the allure of social media and the like. Although it’s true that technology has improved our ability to communicate, it has, in the process, rekindled interest in conventional approaches that confer a sense of connection that taps into wisdom and experiences between generations. Moreover, they are also favourable since they instil the values of patience, discipline and craftsmanship. After all, the only way to truly comprehend something is to embrace its heritage.

One person who would know about self-expression well is none-other-than our cover star, Lisha Ho. “I see myself aligning with the ever-changing nature of fashion. Just as fashion transforms over time, I too embrace a constant process of exploration, learning and pushing my boundaries. This approach allows me to let the passage of time craft the remarkable milestones of my journey,” she told us during the interview. Turn to p132 for the full interview.

Moreover, as you flip through the pages, you will find plenty of riveting feature stories, such as Artistic Licence (154), which profiles six gifted Malaysian artists who are crafting their very own visual languages; Ride the Wave (p28), which examines the Hallyu movement in the realm of luxury fashion; and our exclusive interview with Volcán De Mi Tierra’s CEO, Santiago Cortina Gallardo (p166), just to list a few.
