Fashionably Modest Asia (FMA) 2025 will make its debut from 18th to 20th November 2025, as an event dedicated to celebrating the diversity, inclusivity, and quiet strength of modest fashion across ASEAN. Anchored by the belief that true style lies in comfort, confidence, and cultural expression, Fashionably Modest Asia 2025 aims to inspire women of all backgrounds to embrace modest wear that is both contemporary and empowering.
Presented by Wardah as the official makeup and beauty partner, the event will open with a visionary showcase curated by renowned stylist Min Luna. Bringing her distinctive eye for contemporary elegance, Min Luna has collaborated with a line-up of celebrated Malaysian designers — including TACT, Ezzati Amira, Hasz Hisham, Shaz Nash, Afiq M, Bev C, SVG, Huntilanak, and Behati — to present a collection of modest yet fashion-forward looks that seamlessly balance cultural expression with modern style.
This opening curation sets the tone for the event, celebrating diversity, inclusivity, and the quiet power of modest fashion in today’s style landscape. Fashionably Modest Asia 2025 also places strong emphasis on regional collaboration by spotlighting designers from across ASEAN, each bringing their own cultural narratives and design philosophies to the runway.
The showcase features Na Forrér from Brunei, known for her modern interpretations of traditional craftsmanship; Chris Nick from the Philippines, whose bold, contemporary silhouettes capture Manila’s dynamic fashion scene; Khaar from Vietnam, who places sustainability at the forefront of design, reflecting the region’s growing commitment to responsible fashion; and Benang Jarum, the Indonesian fashion label celebrated for its modern modest wear that blends timeless elegance with contemporary design.
Together, these designers embody the spirit of cultural exchange, lifestyle diversity, and cross-border creativity that Fashionably Modest Asia 2025 was built to celebrate. As the presenter as well as official makeup and beauty partner of Fashionably Modest Asia 2025, Wardah brings its vision of empowerment and self-expression to Fashionably Modest Asia 2025, further strengthening its role as a brand that champions confidence and inclusivity. Through this partnership, Wardah will lead all conversations on beauty, makeup artistry, and the evolving role of cosmetics in complementing modest fashion.
