Androgynous. Bold. Confident. Defying the norm with his fluid fashion is none other than Nazreem Musa, our Prestige 40 Under 40 alum who now graces our September cover and shares his keen sense of style with us. “I think fashion is a self-expression of who you are,” the 33-year-old says. “The way a person dresses is the first impression he or she gives to the world. For me, being able to express myself, it has made me truly happy.”
He names his mother as his icon, having inherited his passion for fashion from her and often accompanied her on after-school shopping trips in his younger days. He states that he learned everything from her, from proper mannerisms to being graceful and dressing well. “She’s very proper. She believes even when you go to sleep, you have to look good. She trains us from young to be proper. Not fashionable, per se, but well-dressed.” Datuk Maziah Musa’s great fashion sense has undoubtedly rubbed off on not only her son, but also daughter Ummi Nazeera. Nazreem says of his actress sister, “Growing up, we both loved the Olsen twins, Mary-Kate and Ashley. I’ve always been ‘the Mary-Kate’, more relaxed. She’s very polished. So, they complemented our respective tastes in fashion.” He adds that as the two of them have a tight relationship, sibling rivalry has never been much of an issue.
