Each designer presented eight distinct looks, showcasing their unique artistic vision and design philosophy.
Empowering the Fashion Ecosystem
Beyond the runway, the My Gaya Fashion Showcase extended support to the entire fashion ecosystem. It provided a platform for models, makeup artists, hairstylists, and other industry professionals to display their talents and collaborate with designers. My Gaya Month is not just about fashion products but also about nurturing the talents who bring these creations to life.
A Sustainable Approach
Sustainability was a recurring theme at this year’s showcase, with several designers incorporating eco-friendly practices into their collections. My Gaya Month continues to set an example for responsible fashion consumption by promoting designs that are stylish and environmentally conscious.
Accessible High-Quality Malaysian Fashion
Committed to inclusivity, My Gaya Month 2023 ensured that selected pieces from the Fashion Showcase were available for purchase on-site at Fahrenheit88. This approach made high-quality Malaysian fashion accessible to all attendees, further promoting local brands and talents.
Furthermore, throughout the Fashion Showcase, the carefully curated food & beverage offerings, inspired by the concept of Menu Rahmah, not only delighted the taste buds of guests, backstage crew, models, and all attendees but also served as a source of revitalization. These delightful flavours of Malaysia, along with energising M-150 Energy Drinks, provided the essential nourishment and energy to keep the event vibrant and everyone well-fed throughout the day, ensuring an energetic and spirited atmosphere. These culinary creations were expertly curated by SukaSucre Kuala Lumpur & Pasta Panas, elevating the overall experience of the Fashion Showcase.

Join Us Until the End
While the Fashion Showcase was a spectacular highlight, My Gaya Month 2023 continues until the 25th of September, offering a myriad of activities and opportunities to explore Malaysian fashion and lifestyle. We invite everyone to join us in celebrating this month-long extravaganza.
The success of My Gaya Month 2023 and the remarkable journey of the Malaysian Bumiputra Designer Association (MBDA) stand as a testament to the unwavering support and collaborative spirit of the Ministry of Domestic Trade & Cost of Living (KPDN), the Kempen Beli Barangan Malaysia (KBBM) campaign, and the dedicated efforts of MBDA. Without their shared vision and commitment to empowering the Malaysian fashion and lifestyle industry, none of this would have been possible. MBDA extends its heartfelt gratitude to KPDN, KBBM, and all partners for their invaluable contributions, which have played an integral role in making My Gaya Month a resounding success year after year. This enduring partnership continues to fuel the growth and innovation of the fashion and lifestyle sectors in Malaysia.
