Augustman Malaysia - February 2024

Bu konuda

The dragon has been a central figure in Chinese culture since time immemorial. This year, the Spring Festival prompted a wide range of luxury brands from fashion, horology, liquor, motoring, and more to collaborate with more ethnic Chinese and oriental artists than ever before for their festive collections, the best of which have been thoughtfully curated in our February 2024 issue, with the aim of immersing you in the spirit of the Dragon year.

In search of an ideal ethnic East Asian male figure to lead our Lunar New Year celebration this February, Augustman Malaysia turned to Puma for an exclusive cover story featuring the brand’s celebrity spokesman - mixed martial artist of Korean descent and star of the hit reality show Physical 100, Yoshihiro Akiyama a.k.a. Choo Sung-hoon, or more fondly known as Sexyama. In addition to the success of his mixed martial art career, the man of the hour inspires us not just with his unwavering mettle to both compete and lead, but also with his impeccable taste in luxury and characteristically dandy style.
