Tatler Malaysia

Marion Caunter

The thing about Marion Caunter is that she takes things in stride and in newly minted representatives of ‘The New Asia.’ “Style isn’t just about what you wear, but how you choose to wear it,” the fashion icon shares. Her Studio54-inspired outfit gleams underneath the strobing lights of our relaunch party: a glittery, sequinned jumpsuit from Halpern, a London-based ready-to-wear womenswear brand. “And I believe that sentiment applies to The New Asia as well,” she continues. “We have so many remarkable Asian talents hailing from all kinds of cultures, and we see them not only sharing that talent across international waters, but their values as Asians as well. We’re everywhere, and that’s an exciting thing to witness and to be a part of.”
