Sayang is a small, up and coming fashion business, that aims big. Through their use of eco friendly fibres and ethical labour, they've already proven their worth as a brand to look out for in the future of Malaysia's sustainable fashion industry. A minimalist by choice, Sayang's founder Dianna Yong channels her experiences and beliefs into a range of jumpsuits and dresses, giving a whole new name to locally made products. She joins us on the show this week, as she shares her vision for the fashion industry, while simultaneously teasing an upcoming collection. After that, Florence Song, style lead at Zalora, shares her thoughts of three patterns straight out of fall, plaid, cheques, and tartan.
