Last Wednesday, Jaspal, the clothing brand from Thailand launched their third flagship store in Mid Valley with a bang. Jaspal is a brand which brings us trendy clothes with affordable prices. They already are huge in Thailand and has a growing fan base in Malaysia with this third store opening. In conjuction with Mid Valley Fashion Week 2009, Jaspal threw a big bash with their Spring/Summer 2009 collection being shown on stage.

There to officially launch the third store were: Ms. Nannatee Wiboonchutikula, Minister Counselor (Commercial), from the Thai Embassy in Malaysia together with Mr. Charan Singsachathet , Deputy Managing Director of JASPAL Thailand Mr. Viseth Singhsachathet, Assistant Managing Director of JASPAL Thailand, Ms Annie Wang, Marketing & Retail Sales Manager of JASPAL Malaysia, Gillian Hung, Malaysian fashion icon and President of MODA, Mr. Daniel Yong, Executive Director of Mid Valley and Ms. Rennie Lee, General Manager of Mid Valley.

The event was graced by many local celebrities like Daphne Iking, Chelsia Ng, Henry Golding, Jehan Miskin and Owen Yap who were all dressed by Jaspal. We were glad to also see the ever so busy bee, Peter Lum there with his friends who were Malaysian local designers. Its good to see so many people were there, it was getting a little stuffy as the show started. The event ended with a Q&A session where guests were given the opportunity to answer really simple questions from the host, Bernie Chan. Guests who answered correctly, were given shopping vouchers worth RM300.

This new collection encompasses of a variety of clothes from fun casual outfits to dressy work clothes and even some to be worn at the beach. Jaspal also celebrates Barbie being 50 this year with a line of dresses, tops and bottoms which have the 50 years of Barbie signs on it. There are cartoon prints on clothes, a lot of pink and also some of these prints are a little too childish for my liking, but hey, I guess it goes with the Barbie theme.

This Spring/Summer 2009 collection has a lot of lightweight clothes which are perfect for our weather condition here in Asia. Their clothes featured a lot of nautical influences, animal and jungle inspired prints and 80s neon bright. Take a look at their collection in the few pictures we took from that day’s fashion show.
