It’s a season of individuality on the Spring/Summer ’19 runways, of empowered choices and pure unadulterated fashion. Play up eccentric style with BDSM leathers that power up muted suede skirts, work a sci-fi metallic dress for day, or have a ball of time—literally—with Chanel’s volleyball bags. Bold statement lips were also brought to the fore, challenging the status quo and redefining strength in feminism. Carine Roitfeld paints a similar picture as well, through current fashion-week favourites that take up discrete roles as ’50s Hollywood icons. And in a BAZAAR special for International Women’s Day this March, we showcase the 10 women shaping and shifting the Malaysian landscape, with courage and strength, in their own terms. Join us, as we celebrate the freedom that comes from being bold.
