A fashion hub in its own right, Kuala Lumpur hosts some of the most eclectic collections of designs hardly found in other parts of the world. This is because its rich multiculturalism gives way to uniquely influenced pieces by many artists, each known locally or internationally. Culture Trip is here to provide you with highly popular spots in KL for a complete update of a female fashionista’s wardrobe, from the avant-garde glam to the daily casual.

1. Shoes Shoes Shoes

Showcasing Hollywood-worthy collections of one of the highlights of an outfits’ ensemble, Shoes Shoes Shoes is a one-stop shop for almost every kind of classy classic footwear for any event, be it a day at the beach or a red-carpet stroll.

Teaming up with both local and international suppliers, you’ll be sure to find designs that are the rage of the worldwide market, or as personal as the local culture.

The best place to look for something cultural, something so chic it’s avant-garde, or something that’s both, is Melinda Looi Showroom.
