Johorian bags gold in international fashion awards


Young and talented: ESMOD KL graduate Tan said that encouragement from family and friends helped her persevere in her creative journey.

WHEN others discouraged her from pursuing a career in fashion design, Tan Wan Yee held on to her father’s advice: “If one is passionate about what one does, one will surely be able to make a living.”

Far from just scraping through, the 27-year-old fashion designer from Johor Baru achieved a new milestone recently by winning the gold award in the A’ Design Award and Competition 2020 – a first for Malaysia.
