Modern heroes won’t confine themselves to grand gestures or extraordinary feats. They can be regular folks amongst us who go out of their way to initiate a positive change in their lives and those around them. They inspire others through their actions and serve as role models. These heroes could be anyone from a teacher who makes a difference in the lives of their students to our picks of next-gen digital artists who are putting Malaysia in the artistic realm.

Our cover features Gulf – Kanawut Traipipatpong, a Thai actor and model who recently took up his first-ever role as Gucci Thailand’s brand ambassador. In this very personal conversation, we inquire as to whether or not he has evolved in the wake of his fame. “I don’t think I have changed or lost myself that much. I am kind of an introvert. When I started being famous, I didn’t feel like there was anything wrong or strange about staying home, because that’s how I have been living. So, I don’t think I have changed that much,” he replied. Find the full interview inside.

On the cover, we have IT-model Louis Pierre looking dashing in the latest pieces from Dior Men Spring/Summer 2024 collection. Along with a light-hearted interview with English model, musician, and actor Rafferty Law, we also featured an interview with pioneering Sarawakian designer Dickson Lim, who shared his process for ensuring that each of his creations has a deep narrative and a must-read story that highlights Malaysian artists who  are challenging convention and reshaping our musical scene. Stay inspired!


On the cover, we have Meerqeen, the first Malaysian brand ambassador of YSL Beauty. Within the pages, you will also find interesting reads such as First and Foremost, featuring Ridzman Zidaine of Topboi Citizen who recently became the first Malaysian model to open for Louis Vuitton in Hong Kong, Hello, is it me you’re looking for?, where our senior writer Syazil Rahim examined the role AI plays in today’s dating apps, and Gentlemen First, which argues that there’s no better time than now to be a narcissist.

Firstly, there are our cover guys Mile Phakphum and Apo Nattawin. Having had their big break in the immensely popular drama KinnPorsche: The Series, the actors have dominated the entertainment business ever since. When asked how to navigate disagreements between them, Mile replied, “We have ways to work things out by frankly discussing our opinions or managing our thoughts and emotions. From what I have experienced, even when we disagree on something, it has never escalated into a real argument or conflict.”

In appreciating the ever-changing dynamics of the fashion industry, we find ourselves at a wonderful juncture where the present meets the future. This issue, with its theme of “Future,” is filled with a sense of anticipation, curiosity, and a desire to push boundaries. We’ve curated a compelling collection of articles, interviews, and features that showcase the dynamic fusion of innovation and style. 

Within these pages, you will find I feel… , an engrossing feature story that explore the wide-reaching aesthetic (anti-)trend of #corecore. Through the voices of students, filmmakers and content creators, our senior writer Syazil Rahim examines the claim that it is merely another genuine art of introspective self-reflection with messages that are sometimes not that straightforwardly comprehensible sans any potential risks of stirring social unrest. 

South Korean actor and cast of Squid Games Season 2 Lee Jin-uk graced our cover, carrying one of Montblanc’s most coveted new releases. If anything, Lee doesn’t want to be typecasted into horror roles: “Regardless of genre, I’ve realised that watching and feeling something can help in my performances. So, I don’t specifically choose which genres to watch; I think the story is more important. I prefer movies and dramas that portray complex and subtle emotions between people,” he said.

The latest edition of L’Officiel Hommes has arrived, and we’re turning the coolness dial all the way up. Prepare to be immersed in this season’s most cutting-edge fashion trends that every hip guy should know. We’re all about helping you unleash your inner cool kid, where style effortlessly meets charisma. Whether you’re a trendsetter or a traditionalist, this issue is your go-to for making a statement that says, “I’ve got it going on!”

For the June/July 2023 issue of L’Officiel Hommes, we zoom straight into what truly sparks joy in life. Cover star Vincent Wong is the picture of cool, dressed in all-black Prada, as he ruminates on how he stays the course while enjoying his acting career. The issue also features K-pop artist B.I. and local talent Alvin Chong (wearing Dior Men), alongside the latest fashion news and trends to obsess over. From must-have summer sandals to colourful timepieces and go-to face mists, you have all you need to show up in summertime style. Finally, trailblazers from various industries invoke inspiration by sharing their secrets to success.

L’Officiel Hommes brings you on an inward-bound voyage this May with a refreshing “Mind & Soul” theme. Cover star Ayden Sng sheds light on the things that count, an insight that allows him to thrive in the entertainment world. Get up close and personal with Malaysian gymnast Sharul Aimy, who is poised to dazzle and set new records in the sports world, and multi-hyphenate David Yong on his new single in On Track. Style galore satiates our need for fashion, watchmaking, grooming, travel and living in these stories: Carven Ong on his first MET outing in In Full Flow, the highlights from Watches & Wonders 2023 in Bumper Year, Sputnik Forest Labs’ words of design wisdom in Lush Dreamscape and a shortlist of Malaysia’s most idyllic retreat gems in A Quiet Place.

For April 2023, Korean rising star Kim Mingue fronts the cover of L’Officiel Hommes Malaysia, accessorised in Clash de Cartier jewellery. On local shores, Malaysian actor-model Nadhir Nasar is making waves with his breakthrough performance that is sure to precede a slew to come. In this “Go Green” issue, timepieces echoing the hue spring a fresh appearance in Going Green while For The Children zooms into sustainable watches that prioritise the future of our planet. Even as The Elitist Irony sheds a final sobering light and urges us to ponder on the authenticity and notion of sustainable fashion, we can’t help but revel in all the wondrously cool and stylish looks in this issue to covet and to don for the new season.

The local edition of French magazine L’Officiel Hommes, adapted from L’Officiel, is Malaysia’s leading authority in the men’s fashion universe. The bi-annual title for the modern, affluent and dapper, seeks to constantly break new ground with exclusive local and global content including the season’s hottest trends, who’s who of the style, design, grooming and lifestyle scenes, and the most coveted luxury buys. 

This is not your typical men’s fashion magazine. L’Officiel Hommes is committed to bringing together sharper trend reports, innovative features, witty interviews and local, and international happenings – all in the most creative manner of our editors.

The seven members of the fast-rising K-pop boy group ENHYPHEN - consisting of Jungwon, Heesung, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo and Ni-ki - grace the cover of the L'Officiel Hommes Malaysia S/S 2022 issue. The multi-hyphenate band speaks about their journey in the evergrowing music industry, future plans and goals, the ENGENEs and everything in between. Elsewhere, you will find plenty of riveting reads such as interviews with four successful gentlemen with fierce personal style to boot and headline-making timepieces, as well as L'Officiel Hommes, curated style and grooming trends of the season.

Celebrating our 3rd anniversary and 100 years of fashion at LÓfficiel, we star none other than the award-winning Colombian multi-hyphenate star Maluma on the cover. From a Hollywood debut in Marry Me opposite Jennifer Lopez to become the muse for major fashion houses, fame is in the global sensation’s DNA and he is just getting started. In this issue, you will find useful information and intriguingly heaped in large compilations of stylish visuals, it would mesmerise you and take you longer than usual to flip through the pages and make more effort to look at them so as not to miss out on anything unintentionally.

Victor Perr, an examplar of style and substance, fronts our Spring/Summer 2021 edition of L’Officiel Hommes Malaysia – dressed head-to-toe in Dior. The face of the moment talks about his journey in fashion and modelling, his plans for the near future and everything in between. The testing times have pushed the team to dive deeper into the whole notion of essentiality. Here you will find “back-to-basics” fashion and grooming trends, the ground-breaking releases from the world horology, a conversation with three new-generation light maestros as well as a myriad of fashion editorials that keep you abreast, and more importantly, your creative juices flowing.

Celebrating the second drop, the “Reboot” issue is fronted by two sought-after Malaysian models decked out head-to-toe in Coach from its Autumn/Winter 2020 collection. This issue explores the big ideas about what’s next on the fashion and lifestyle landscape including the season’s fashion and grooming trend report. Elsewhere, you will find plenty of riveting reads such as interviews with six next generation and accessories designers and headline-making timepieces, as well as L’Officiel Hommes compilations of the most intriguing concept cars and international resorts.

We’re celebrating 2020 with the unveiling of the inaugural issue of L’Officiel Hommes Malaysia. Why Syafiq Kyle? The reason is simple: the cover guy possesses parallel determination, optimism and ambition as we do, so we’d like to think that the editorial offers him the platform to break the rules of conventional storytelling. Fashion and grooming trend report aside, you will also find plenty of other riveting reads on topics such as music, food, as well as luxury travel.
