Last-minute shopping can be quite a headache when there are so many options around and yet, you’re still clueless on what to get. If you’re looking for sustainable pieces which you can wear even long after CNY is over, then we’ve got you covered. Here are eight new collections you can consider getting your hands on, depending on your taste and style.

MODERN TRADITIONS

1. Innai Red’s ‘Rú Yì’ Collection

‘Ru’ Top in Purple, RM850 & ‘Shi’ Skirt in Turquoise/Pink, RM1,000

If you can’t escape wearing something traditional on chor yat aka the first day of CNY, why not opt for these pieces that come with a modern twist? Innai Red’s ‘Rú Yì’ collection this year features the brand’s iconic styles, elements and silhouettes that are reintroduced and reinterpreted through refreshing designs. Featuring vibrant colours filled with floral patterns, the collection is suitable for the fashionista who wants to spice up her festive look!

2. Melinda Looi’s ‘My Tropical Mars’ Collection

Reversible Bolero Jacket, RM888

Inspired by tigers aka guardians of our planet, Melinda Looi’s collection is made up of colourful silhouettes that take after blooming plants on Earth. If you’re looking for something that’s leaning more towards our Malaysian identity, we’d recommend the reversible jacket that’s made from cotton Indonesian batik and comes in a few designs, which you can wear as it is with the prints or flip over for a simpler look. The best part is that you can wear it on two different occasions and style it with a pair of jeans, harem pants or even a mini skirt and no one would be able to guess that you’re wearing the same piece!

3. Wynka ‘Gem by Wynka’ Collection

‘Rubalite’ dress, RM2,343

Not sure if you should get a dress or a skirt and blouse for this CNY? Why not go for a two-in-one design? ‘Gem by Wynka’ is a collection that takes us all back in time to the ’60s, inspired by the brand’s Creative Director, Karen Lau’s mother’s closet. It narrates the story of how Karen’s mum moved from a village to the city but maintained her heritage in a modern, feminist way. Featuring a handful of colonial Shanghainese influences, we love the East-meets-West elements – from the lush brocade to the laser-cut lace-cut features – on each piece. Our pick is this ‘Rubalite’ dress that looks like a skirt and top but is, in fact, one piece. The combination of a bright pink high-neck top and floral skirt makes this piece suitable to be worn all day long. Tie your hair up in a high bun and style it with a pair of stilettos to elongate your figure and you’re done!

For CNY, the brand collaborated with legendary Japanese illustrator, designer and model maker, Yasushi Nirasawa to come up with this OnitsukaTiger Man series in blue and red, with patterns inspired by a tiger’s stripes. While you can style the tees with work pants or a jumpsuit for a formal look, you can also style the sweaters with a pair of jeans for a casual and comfy look!

Featuring pieces that are bold and on-point – from bucket hats to hoodies, leggings, cashmere jackets and boots, the series is suitable for those who like to bring out the spontaneous and happy-go-lucky side of them. Bonus: you’ll stand out especially in group pictures that are taken during CNY!
