(Video) Rizman Ruzaini Makes Cannes Film Festival Debut With Stunning Pink Ensemble

Hype Malaysia20-05-2025
Malaysia's very own Rizman Ruzaini continues to make a name for itself in the global market! The homegrown fashion label recently made a jaw-dropping appearance at the Cannes Film Festival with Norwegian-Somali model Rawdah Mohamed!
Last weekend, Rawdah walked the red carpet at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival for the movie 'Die, My Love', starring Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson. The model turned heads with her pink ensemble, complete with a matching hijab. Rawdah kept the jewellery simple, sporting a necklace from the French luxury jewellery house Boucheron. Netizens and fashion magazines praised the look for being modern and modest, with many praising the hijab.
As it turns out, the dress was a custom design by Malaysian designer duo Rizman Ruzaini. Through its Instagram account, the fashion house described the custom look, 'A sculptural study in silhouette and silk, the rose pink ensemble featured a svelte buttoned-back bodice flowing into a dramatic flared skirt, masterfully gathered at the hips for graceful movement and form.' Meanwhile, the matching heels were from the Indonesian brand Buttonscarves.
Many Malaysians have reacted to Maison Rizman Ruzaini's Cannes debut, congratulating the designers on their recent milestone. Stars like Malaysian actress Siti Saleha and Indonesian actress Raline Shah also send their praises and love to the homegrown fashion label. Rawdah also loved the custom piece, writing on her Instagram, 'What an honour to wear custom Rizman Ruzaini. Thank you for making me feel one of a kind.'
The model also shared more photos of herself in the dress, taken at her hotel before walking down the Cannes red carpet. Renowned fashion and lifestyle magazine Marie Claire also highlighted Rawdah's look in an Instagram video for their Marie Claire Arabia edition. Fans also praised the 34-year-old and her dress, saying she looked like a princess and a ballerina in the pink custom piece.
While this was Rizman Ruzaini's first appearance at the Cannes Film Festival, the fashion house has appeared at other film festivals. We hope this opens up more opportunities for the brand to appear at international events and red carpets!

The 64-year-old music legend sang 30 songs and kept 15,000 fans singing and swaying along to his beat from the word 'go' in his 60+ Concert Tour which started on the dot at 8pm. As in all of Cheung's concerts, he also entertained fans with spectacular, state-of-the-art props, themes and costumes which had fans asking for more. "I'm so happy to be back in Kuala Lumpur. I love my Malaysian fans, for they are very sporting and friendly," said Cheung who is marking four decades in music this year.

Local Alt-Rock Band Servants Takes 'Love Shouldn't Hurt This Much' Tour Across Malaysia

Malaysian alternative rock band Servants has officially launched their debut album tour, marking a significant milestone in their eight-year journey as a band. The 'Love Shouldn't Hurt This Much' tour successfully opened on 9th August 2025, at RUAS in Penang, bringing the emotional depth of their debut full-length album to live audiences for the first time. A Long-Awaited Live Experience For Servants – comprising vocalist Amirul Nazreen, guitarists Imran Khoo and Afif Jaafar, bassist Muhd Ridzuan, and drummer Rohaizad Rahmat – this tour represents more than just promotional dates. It's the realisation of plans that were derailed during their 2019 EP era when the COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of their intended touring schedule. 'This is our first tour ever,' the band explains. 'When we released our EP 'Holding On While Letting Go,' we had planned a tour that couldn't happen due to the pandemic. Now we want to gain new experiences by managing this tour ourselves.' Strategic Route Planning The three-city tour was carefully planned based on direct fan engagement. Rather than following traditional touring routes, Servants conducted their own survey among followers and listeners, identifying the locations with the highest demand for live performances. 'We conducted a small survey among our followers and listeners, and from many states, these three locations received the highest number of requests for us to perform,' the band reveals. This data-driven approach to touring reflects a modern band's direct relationship with their audience, bypassing traditional industry gatekeepers. Remaining Tour Dates: Ipoh – 17th September 2025 at Ladyboss – 17th September 2025 at Ladyboss Johor Bahru – 4th October 2025 at Embrace Hall DIY Ethos & Community Building Servants is managing this tour completely independently, using it as a learning experience. 'We want to find new experiences by managing this tour ourselves. It's a starting point to see the potential and challenges in managing a tour, before we plan something bigger and more organised in the future,' they explain. At each stop, they're featuring 2-3 local bands as opening acts. 'We believe there are many great talents in these states that lack exposure,' the band states. 'We hope that with this opportunity, more people can discover and appreciate their work.' This approach turns each show into a celebration of local music scenes, perfectly matching the independent spirit that has defined Servants since 2016. Taking Their Music To New Territories The challenge for any band touring behind a deeply personal album is translating intimate, emotional material to live settings. 'Love Shouldn't Hurt This Much,' released 15th November 2024, deals with heavy themes including mental health struggles, addiction, loss, and trauma across its nine tracks and 31-minute runtime. Songs like 'Contrast,' which tackles addiction through complex time signatures, and 'Past Midnight,' featuring collaboration with Dean from Kids on the Move about battling overthinking, present unique challenges for live interpretation. The album's centerpiece, 'Selamanya Bukan Milik Kita,' originally features keys, strings, and poetry that require creative solutions for live performance. Beyond these artistic challenges, the tour serves strategic purposes for geographical expansion. 'We want to bring our music to states we've never visited for live performances,' they explain. This expansion into new markets is crucial for building a sustainable touring career and developing the fanbase necessary for future, larger-scale tours. Join The Movement With two dates remaining, Servants is using this tour as a stepping stone for future plans. 'Our main objective is to expand our reach and introduce our music to new listeners,' they explain. The DIY approach has taught them valuable lessons about managing everything from logistics to promotion. The tour proves independent Malaysian bands can thrive while lifting others up. Don't miss Servants' final shows in Ipoh (27th September) or Johor Bahru (4th October) for a true celebration of local alternative music.

KUALA LUMPUR: Actress Ruhainies, 33, has captured attention after claiming her monthly income as an artiste can reach up to RM100,000. The claim was made during a recent interview, where she openly discussed her earnings, drawing various reactions from netizens. In a Berita Harian report today, Ruhainies, whose full name is Nur Ruhainies Farehah Zainul Ilyas, said that throughout her nearly decade-long career in the entertainment industry, she has successfully built multiple income streams. These include acting, brand ambassadorships, affiliate marketing, and various brand collaborations. "My income is around RM50,000 to RM100,000 a month," she said. "On Instagram, I have 1.7 million followers, while on TikTok I have over 700,000 followers." When commenting on her lifestyle, the star of the TV series Sayang Tak Dikenang emphasised that she prioritises quality over price. "With such a high income, I spend a lot on personal care, living expenses, and operating costs, which are quite high," she said. "When selecting products, I focus more on quality. If a product is suitable, of course, I will buy it." A subsequent review found that the original interview video had been taken down. However, it was subsequently re-uploaded on social media by another user.
