TARIK Anak Liar Vol. II

TARIK JEANS (Tarik) is a Malaysian brand that embraces the local identity of diversity. The brand was inspired by Afiq Iskandar, who is also a member of the rock band, Oh Chentaku (OCK). His passion for music and Malaysian culture laid the foundations for Tarik. Since its inception in 2010, Tarik have received a lot of attention especially from those in tune with street fashion, and an interest in denim.

The word 'Tarik' is something all Malaysians understand, and was created along the lines of the brand's philosophy. Locals of all ages are familiar with Malaysia's favourite pastime of going to a "mamak" stall and ordering a 'Teh Tarik'. Tarik's main mascot of a man cooling the tea with the distinctive 'tarik' action resonates very well to its target audience.

What makes it even more apt is 'pull' as its meaning in English - providing the emotional and stylish pull factor for the brand to be known not just locally, but also internationally. Tarik believes in quality and progressive designs while staying true to the local culture.

The 'Anak Liar' or 'Wild Child' collection is an homage to the Malaysian 'rock kapak' era when 'hair bands' ruled the charts and the country's airwaves. Led by the legendary Search, Wings and Lefthanded (who were all founded in the enigmatic zeitgeist of the 80s), came bands like XPDC, Olan, Rusty Blade, Bloodshed, Iklim, Handy Black and many more. The word 'kapak' or the medieval 'axe' here could possibly be attributed to the Malay proverb 'Ambil kapak belahlah dada' which means , 'if you want to know what's in my heart, take an axe and cut it into two' - referring to its mostly melancholy lyrics or in Malay slang 'tangkap jiwang'.

'Rock kapak' came with an unmistakable image and style. Grotesque to some, one must admit that the impact it created serves to further pique to the curiosity it arouses. The jeans are tighter, the hair was bigger and teased to voluminous height, accessories are piled up, and for the more daring, a subtle touch of make-up. It was a period of fashion maximalism and true allegiance to PVCs, leather, lace and band/tour T-shirts - customised to reach a certain 'Gua Caya Sama Lu' fit.

'Anak Liar' is also inspired by the legendary Tan Sri P. Ramlee, Jack Kerouac, skateboard culture and hypermarkets. The collectio is available for purchase on www.tarik.my

A collaboration is also in the works with Malaysia Airlines (MAS) which is due to kickoff during the festive period as well. Apart from flight sponsorship, MAS and FV are working together to bring their customers an incredible deal. Those who shop at FV know that with every purchase, they earn reward points, which they can eventually trade in for products. This collaboration with MAS will enable them to convert those points to Enrich miles, which equates to free flights! Both FV and MAS are anxious to get this up and running!

This is the biggest Raya campaign FV has worked on so far and is one of the most exciting and rewarding times for everyone at FV and their customers as the hustle and bustle of the celebrations creep in and the atmosphere builds as the month of Syawal approaches. The icing on the cake was when FV's first billboard ad was erected in the beginning of April on Federal Highway. Look out for it! What with the new reality TV show on Astro Ria called "Love, Vivy" already airing, this is definitely a time where audiences will want to keep their eyes glued to FV's every move.

Earlier today, my team and I went to the preview at Twenty2 boutique that is located at 22, Jl. Maarof, Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur. This is the first bridal section in the boutique as in before they only carry Ready-To-Wear collection from Malaysian and Indonesian designers. The place is really nice and it has a cozy cafe beside of it so that when you girls want to shop your spouse can just wait at the cafe.
