These days, boutiques, malls and stores are popping up at such an alarming rate that very few manage to stand out. However, this is certainly not the case for Modestarr. This 2 month old addition to Bangsar’s Telawi Street is undoubtedly a shopper’s paradise in more ways than one!

Simply walk through the door of 14-1, Jalan Telawi 5 and you will find yourself transported to a world of high fashion! The highly original decor makes customers feel both comfortable and inspired at the same time.

Loving the miniature runway and sleek shelf of accessories!

Though all items are imported from Japan, Korea, Australia, UK and several other countries, Modestarr has managed to keep prices relatively low- between RM 19.90 and RM 159.90. Much care has been put into pricing to ensure that the price tags match the quality of the items. Believe me when I say that each and every piece in the store is reasonably priced!

At a sweeping glance, they seem to cater to those who are a little more edgy. Indeed, statement pieces grab your attention from their many racks. Expect to see studs, prints, fringe and more. This is certainly the place to find the perfect outfits for those who want to stand out!

However, take a closer look and you will soon realize that between the loud pieces, they have slipped in many classy, sophisticated ones. Look out for their beautiful designer inspired dresses in light chiffon and soft silk, just what we need for formal occasions. The basics have not been neglected either. Everything you need for a complete wardrobe, all under one roof!

Aside from its gorgeous clothes, Modestarr also stands out from the crowd with its keen attention to customer service. The brainchild of a former fashion producer who has worked with many inspirational stylists, artists, models and overseas clients, Modestarr aims to bring customers a large variety of unique and beautiful pieces to help them find their own personal style. I assure you ladies, you would be very impressed with the service you receive upon entering the boutique!

How so? For one thing, you would never feel here, the pressure you often receive from sales people in most other boutiques. Imagine that! Trying on clothes without being pushed to purchase them! You can also count on Modestarr’s staff for their honest opinions and helpful styling advice. Need minor alterations? Modestarr would be happy to help! Looking for particular pieces? Let Modestarr know and they’ll keep an eye out for you on their next buying trip, no obligations! Service like this is undoubtedly one in a million.

This is the sort of boutique one would visit over and over again! I was thrilled to hear that they have plans to venture into self-designed couture as well as men and children wear. They also plan to expand into foreign shores. At the rate they’re going, future ventures are bound to be a success! Good luck Modestarr, I’m sure I’m not the only one looking forward to it!
