Armoire Apparel Goes Brick and Mortar in Malaysia

Armoire Acrylic Dress, purchase now!  
I am so proud of my friend, Evon Tan, whose style and genuine nature makes her one of my favorite people...not to mention she is brilliant!  Her line, Armoire Apparel, exudes "Happiness, Freedom, Love, and Sophistication." These are her words, but it is undeniably true even from an outsider's standpoint.  Her wears are for the woman who is confident in her own skin, holds class in every fiber of her being and awakens her soul when she is ready to get dolled up.

Seventeen Magazine Singapore, May 2011 issue...there's my girl's dress circled!


I met Evon on Fashion Industry Network and I could tell right away that not only does she have a keen sense of what is going on in fashion, but her passion for humanity and what is right (and wrong) in the world plays a key role in the people she chooses to support and connect with.  Case in point...she is one of The Compassion Fashion Project's biggest supporters.  She jumped on board right away by "liking" our Facebook page a regularly commenting on the links and posts we make on there.  For me, this is a huge deal, because it shows me that she is someone that stands up for what she believes in even if it may seem a taboo subject to some.  I am proud to call her my friend and even prouder that she has planned her launch party for the opening of her "brick and mortar" shop in Malaysia.  I wish I could be there, but I am hoping that someone who is able to make it that reads this post will be there on behalf of The Compassion Fashion Project and shop til' they drop!
Armoire has been featured in Liberating Style Magazine – Mini Issue #2
Evon does her own sketches as seen here.

Armoire's tag line is "Engineering the Perfect Dress."  No wonder, because as I got to know Evon I found out that she is an educated chemical engineer.  Go girl!  So, now she uses her knowledge in this field to propel her designs into a well oiled machine for her clients...I love it.

As her website states, "The whimsical idea was inspired from trips ranging from the Far East to Milan. Scouring the vintage markets in Sydney and Melbourne for inspiring pieces. Sinking into the variety of fabric, the collections are coming together to contain show stopping dresses, a selection of daywear, signature dresses, using only exclusive imported fabric."
