From the flamboyant Kardashians to the classy Aimee Song, these fashionista influencers have proved themselves worthy of their social status given their trendsetting abilities and instant style appeal. Remember Kylie’s penchant for ripped back jeans? Once she has stepped foot onto the streets in those fashionable rags, suddenly everyone wants to take a pair of scissors and flaunt off that sexy behind.

Well….maybe that’s not very feasible given that we’re in Malaysia (hehe) but if you’re seeking for alternative styles leaning towards an edgier persona, we highly recommend these local fashionistas!
1. Alicia Amin
The word is out – this lanky Johorian lass has beaten the odds into making her way as one of the 14 finalists in Asia’s Next Top Model (Cycle 5). An impressive feat given that she’s only 22 (gasp!), Alicia exhibits the very quality of an urban fashionista given that she’s a self-proclaimed coffee junkie and pole dance enthusiast!
Sporting tattoo and a recent cheeky pixie cut, she’s the typical image of a good-girl-gone-bad persona. Best not to mess with this tough gal!
2. Ain Edruce
The perfect mesh of tomboy femininity, Ain’s the kind of person who stays true to her fashion sense. And that means dressing down whenever she likes! Occasionally sporting the quintessential band tee ensemble, she makes a great fitting pair of jeans as her style muse whenever it beckons.
3. Rubini Sambathan
Channeling a kind of pin-up girl persona through her shots, Rubini simply mesmerises with her now ashy blonde locks and exotic features. Disregarding the regular stereotype of being fair and lovely, she epitomises the complete opposite with her honey brown complexion and Asian lineage. A fashion chameleon when it comes to it, she ain’t afraid to bend conventional wardrobe rules by incorporating a generous dose of feminine and avant-garde elements to her ensembles.
4. Joeyee Tan
Scrolling through her Instagram feed can be such a gratifying visual experience, capturing your attention through pretty pastels and minimalist arrangements. A taste for the whimsical, Joeyee infuses a dash of fairytale delight into each and every shot to exhibit a taste for daydreamers and style musers alike. How delightful indeed!
