RR by Rizman Ruzaini marks 20 years with ‘Rebirth: Vol.1 – Gratitude', reintroducing line with a bold push into affordable luxury
KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 11 — Two decades in, RR by Rizman Ruzaini is hitting refresh with its Fall/Winter 2025 collection, Rebirth: Vol.1 – Gratitude — a sleek new chapter for the label as it steps boldly into the affordable luxury space. Drawing on the symbolism of the lotus flower and grace through adversity the collection blends familiar RR elegance with clean, modern lines. Think structured yet fluid silhouettes, elevated everyday pieces, and a debut appearance by denim in deep navy, paired with a palette of black, white and cream. 'This is not just a seasonal drop. It's a reintroduction of RR by Rizman Ruzaini,' said co-founder Rizman Nordin. 'We're speaking to a new audience — one that values craft, identity and intention.' The RR monogram makes quiet appearances as subtle motifs and graphic details, tying each piece back to the brand's DNA. Metallic accents in silver and gold thread through the looks in embellishments, hardware, footwear and accessories adding light without overpowering the minimal aesthetic.

Co-founder Ruzaini Jamil described the collection's mood as 'calm, dignified, and aware,' adding: 'The lotus is more than a design symbol; it's a philosophy. This collection is our way of saying thank you to the women and men who've made us part of their lives for the last 20 years.' Originally positioned as the entry line to Rizman Ruzaini's couture world, RR now stands on its own alongside international names like Sandro, Maje, Theory and Coach — offering design-forward pieces with accessible price points for Southeast Asia's growing class of style-conscious shoppers.

Three Jakarta outlets are also set to launch later this year.

Couturier Syomirizwa Gupta brings after-party allure to KL Fashion Week with ‘The Sweetest Hangover'
KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 11 — Midnight may signal the end of a formal evening for some, but for local fashion designer Syomirizwa Gupta, it is where the real story begins. His latest bespoke collection, The Sweetest Hangover 2026/27, unveiled on August 8 at Kuala Lumpur Fashion Week, captures the heady, unguarded glamour of the hours after a black-tie affair — when the ties are loosened, the lights dim, and style remains sharp even as the rules fall away. 'It's about that delicious blur between the night you remember and the one you'll never forget,' Syomir told Malay Mail, describing the collection as 'the afterglow, the laughter, the sparkle that lingers long after the music stops.' Designed for both men and women, the pieces channel confidence without effort and seduction without excess. — Picture by Syomirizwa Gupta The 25-look collection blends sleek tuxedo tailoring with fluid silks and playful, provocative touches — from tuxedo shirts paired with sequin underwear to a crisp all-white suit with risqué details only revealed up close. Designed for both men and women, the pieces channel confidence without effort and seduction without excess. Fabrics range from silk satin and chiffon to heavy satin and brocade, while the palette is bold and unapologetic: white, black, fuchsia, magenta, orange, green and yellow — colours chosen to pop under low, late-night lighting. Drawing inspiration from '70s disco sensuality and late-'90s Tom Ford sophistication, the line carries Syomir's signature tropical pulse, making each look feel as ready for the dance floor as it is for the runway. With The Sweetest Hangover, Syomir invited KL Fashion Week guests into his vision of the ultimate after-party — one where the cocktails flow, the confidence soars and the glamour never fades.

From Bombardino Crocodilo to Tung Tung Sahur, Italian Brainrot is the AI meme chaos kids love — and adults just don't get (VIDEO)
TOKYO, Aug 11 — In a Japanese shop selling pocket-money trinkets, there is a rack of toys, stickers and keyrings based on a global crew of AI-generated characters that almost every child knows about — and very few adults. A walking shark in oversized sneakers, an orange with muscular arms and a twirling 'Ballerina Cappuccina' with a mug for a head are among the strange stars of the online phenomenon called Italian Brainrot. 'At first it's not funny at all, but it kind of grows on you,' 16-year-old Yoshi Yamanaka-Nebesney from New York told AFP. 'You might use it to annoy someone and find that funny.' The name nods to the stupefying effect of scrolling through mindless social media posts, especially over-the-top images created with artificial intelligence tools. Shouty, crude and often nonsensical Italian voiceovers feature in many of the clips made by people in various countries that began to spread this year on platforms such as TikTok, embraced by young Gen Z and Gen Alpha members. The dozen-plus cartoonish AI creatures have fast become memes, inspiring a stream of new content such as 'Brainrot Rap', viewed 116 million times on YouTube. A YouTube Short titled 'Learn to Draw 5 Crazy Italian Brainrot Animals' — including a cactus-elephant crossover named 'Lirili Larila' — has also been watched 320 million times. 'There's a whole bunch of phrases that all these characters have,' said Yamanaka-Nebesney, in Tokyo with his mother Chinami, who had no idea what he was talking about. School-age Italian Brainrot fans can be found from Kenya to Spain and South Korea, while some of the most popular videos reference Indonesia's language and culture instead. 'I went on trips with my boys to Mexico' and people would 'crack jokes about it' there too, Yamanaka-Nebesney said. 'Melodic language' Internet trends move fast, and Italian Brainrot 'hit its peak maybe two months ago or a month ago', said Idil Galip, a University of Amsterdam lecturer in new media and digital culture. Italian — a 'melodic language that has opportunities for jokes' — has appeared in other memes before. And 'there are just so many people in Indonesia' sharing posts which have potential for global reach, Galip said. A 'multi-level marketing economy' has even emerged, with AI video-makers targeting Italian Brainrot's huge audience through online ads or merchandise sales, she added. Nurina, a 41-year-old Indonesian NGO worker, said her seven-year-old loves the mashed-up brainrot world. 'Sometimes when I pick him up from school, or when I'm working from home, he shouts, 'Mommy! Bombardino Crocodilo!'' — a bomber plane character with a crocodile head. 'I know it's fun to watch,' said Nurina, who like many Indonesians goes by one name. 'I just need to make him understand that this is not real.' Some videos have been criticised for containing offensive messages that go over young viewers' heads, such as rambling references in Italian to 'Bombardino Crocodilo' bombing children in Gaza. 'The problem is that these characters are put into adult content' and 'many parents are not tech-savvy' enough to spot the dangers, warned Oriza Sativa, a Jakarta-based clinical psychologist. This photo illustration taken on August 7, 2025 shows a small bag of novelty merchandise for the online phenomenon called Italian Brainrot, containing collectable cards and a small figure of Frulli Frulla, purchased from a shop in Tokyo. — AFP pic Tung Tung Tung Sahur The best-known Indonesian brainrot character 'Tung Tung Tung Sahur' resembles a long drum called a kentongan, which is used to wake people up for a pre-dawn meal, or sahur, during Ramadan. Indonesia has a young, digitally active population of around 280 million, and 'Tung Tung Tung Sahur' is not its only viral export. This summer, video footage — not AI-generated — of a sunglass-wearing boy dancing on a rowboat during a race at a western Indonesian festival also became an internet sensation. Noxa, the TikToker behind the original 'Tung Tung Tung Sahur' clip, is now represented by a Paris-based collective of artists, lawyers and researchers called Mementum Lab. 'Noxa is a content creator based in Indonesia. He's under 20,' they told AFP. 'He makes fast, overstimulated, AI-assisted videos.' 'He doesn't call himself a 'contemporary artist', but we think he's already acting like one,' said Mementum Lab, which is focused on complex emerging issues around AI intellectual property, and says it is helping Noxa negotiate deals for his work. Noxa, in comments provided by the collective, said the character was 'inspired by the sound of the sahur drum I used to hear'. 'I didn't want my character to be just another passing joke — I wanted him to have meaning,' he said. Cultural nuances can be lost at a mass scale, however, with one 12-year-old tourist in Tokyo saying he thought 'Tung Tung Tung Sahur' was a baseball bat. And the generation gap looks set to persist. 'What's that?!' laughed a woman as she puzzled at the row of Italian Brainrot dolls. 'It's not cute at all!' — AFP
