MiFW 2011

MALAYSIA INTERNATIONAL FASHION WEEK

The Malaysia International Fashion Week (MIFW) is the definitive fashion event in Malaysia. It is a highly visible platform where both established and up-and-coming local designers are invited to showcase their talents.

Started in 2003, MIFW serves to promote Malaysia as a fashion capital. It is an annual week-long event that takes place in November.

To provide more international exposure, foreign designers and models are also invited to participate in MIFW. In recent years, the MIFW has become an avenue for South East Asian and Asian designers to showcase their collections.

MIFW is mainly trade driven and designers are given the opportunity to grow their fashion enterprises overseas via trade meetings with international fashion buyers, industry peers, and international media.

The shows and gala nights of the MIFW attract an A-list group comprising royalties, corporate moguls and personalities, socialites and celebrities.
