Kuala Lumpur Fashion Week (KLFW) is making its much-anticipated return this August, promising a grander and more dynamic showcase of Malaysian fashion. In collaboration with Suria KLCC and KLCC (Holdings) Sdn Bhd, KLFW 2025 will once again transform the iconic PETRONAS Twin Towers Esplanade into the city’s most stylish stage from 4 to 10 August 2025.

Now in its 13th season, the fashion week is ramping up the energy with its largest roster yet—over 55 designers and brands, including runway veterans, fresh faces, and established mainstays. For the second consecutive year, the event will unfold in a custom-built, monochrome show space extending across KLCC Park’s Esplanade. The venue features a main show hall, runway, and interactive activation zones, along with a new dedicated arrivals hall to streamline the guest experience.

Fashion For All

While each runway show hosts 500 invited guests, fashion fans can catch the spectacle via a livestream broadcast on the venue’s large LED panel, bringing the glamour to a broader audience.

Creative collaborations are taking the spotlight this year. Textile artisans Muni and Sofia Iman will transform heritage crafts—natural dyes and traditional songket—into contemporary runway statements. A standout partnership between Larney and designer Afiq M adds edge to elegance, marking the latter’s long-awaited return to KLFW’s signature all-black runway.

KLFW 2025 will also welcome back top names such as Ezzati Amira, Hatta Dolmat, Maarimaia, Mimpikita, Neonate, and Private Stitch, whose collections are expected to continue shaping Malaysia’s fashion narrative.

Style Maestros

Newcomers making their KLFW debut include rising labels Akmal Hakim, ShazNash, Ugly Pretty, HUNTILANAK, and MOKJY, alongside returning circuit regulars Outdwell and Doubleback. Also stepping into the spotlight are acclaimed couturier Radzuan Radziwill and bespoke designer Teh Firdaus, known for dressing celebrities and royalty alike.

KLFW 2025 will further highlight sustainability through its “Design To Sustain” segment, featuring up-and-coming talents Raja Irfan, Mei Mei, and Salahuddinhilmi, winners of the KLFW Designer Search 2024.

“After an iconic KLFW 2024, where we hosted 7 impactful days in our own purpose-built show space, we knew we had to return for another year,” said Andrew Tan, Founder of Kuala Lumpur Fashion Week. “KLFW 2025 marks an amplified comeback—with bigger ambitions, a head-turning line-up, bolder styles, trends, and world-class fashion. At its core, Kuala Lumpur Fashion Week remains a community-driven movement powered by the passion and dedication of designers, sponsors, partners, and the fashion-savvy community.”
