FASHION OBSESSION
For Jay-Z, it's watches; for Pharrell Williams, it's art; and for Napoleon, it was countries. As long as there have been things to collect, men have sought to do so. Stylish guys are no different. In fact, some of the most impressive collections in the world hang inside (and overflow out of) men's wardrobes. We're thinking of mountains of sneakers and clothings that would tower over a double-decker Us or ties so valuable they could secure a small house. Fashion - in all its forms, may be interesting to collect, but the question that may be of the essence is, why? Every collection of objects has a unique story, and each individual collector has a distinctly personal reason for what brought them to their hobby.

THROUGH THE LENS of Malaysian Artists
There are many varied reasons why art is important to society—a simple definition of art is that ‘art is order’. And as Malaysians, we’re famous for letting raw talent go unnoticed. Nine out of 10 times, we are unaware of our own local talent until that person has made it on the billboards of some foreign land. It’s even more competitive when it comes to something as subjective as visual art, where everyone’s a critic. Many Malaysian artists who work relentlessly are practically unknown, which is a shame considering how awesome their art is. At Augustman, we believe that good art should be valued and shared, so we’ve compiled a list of talented Malaysian artists and their artworks that are currently showcased at ILHAM Art Show in Kuala Lumpur.
