Another week, another whirlwind of totally EXTRA events! We were here, there and everywhere!
We played foot(s)ie with the iconic David Beckham, got our foot in the door at Christian Louboutin’s new boutique, popped up at shu uemura’s CNY pop-up and MUCH, MUCH more. We were on the scene, and vibing like a boss! Just check out our social diary for this past week (don’t be jelly!):
David Beckham @ The Exchange TRX
After much anticipation, we – and local fans – finally got the chance to meet football legend David Beckham in the flesh during his appearance at The Exchange TRX.
The visit was in conjunction with the World of Predator tour, and Malaysia happened to be David’s last stop. adidas Creators, the media and select adiClub members not only enjoyed a preview of the World of Predator, but also experienced a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet and greet the icon himself.
“It’s been a few years since I’ve been here, so It’s really nice to be back for adidas and to celebrate the 30th year anniversary of the Predator. It was a big part of my career and my life, so I’m proud to be here and I’m excited to see you all,” the 48-year-old Brit said.
The World of Predator will showcase 30 years of the boot’s legacy and history through an archive walk featuring each boot’s unique technology. Dedicated to the franchise’s impact on the game over three monumental decades, the exhibition will detail every boot since the franchise’s inception in 1994. Here’s what went down during the meet and greet:

UNIQLO’s Fresh & Vibrant S/S24 Collection
UNIQLO Malaysia held a captivating exhibition at the Garden Canopy in The Exchange TRX. Attendees were transported into a setting that mirrored the daily routine of a commuter by including a train, while featuring the latest Spring/Summer LifeWear collection that blends functionality with contemporary style for everyday living.
“Lightness” is a big theme for UNIQLO’s SS24 collection. Seeing as how Malaysia is usually subjected to scorching heat and unpredictable weather, the blend of natural, flexible fabrics with a subdued colour palette not only meets the practical needs of daily life, but also adds a touch of vibrancy and style to each moment. In addition to Sports Utility Wear and stylish utilitarian bottoms, the lineup also incorporates UV protection (serving as a shield against harmful rays) in some of its garments.
