The never-ending rivalry between Indonesia and Malaysia may be still igniting in other fields of work such as politics, territories, and cultural forms, but the two countries can be united on a common ground, which is fashion. Representing Indonesia is Ageless Galaxy and they teamed up with Kuala Lumpur based brand, Pestle & Mortar Clothing to show when the differences are being forgotten, the alliance can result in an empowering outcome, in this case, a collaboration collection.
‘Don’t Let the Straits Separate’ is the spirit they incorporated into the collection through several symbolisms on the products. This includes the Garuda and Jata Negara graphics, a combination of the two countries’ national emblems. A lot of cultural references are thrown into designs such as the combination of Bir Bintang and Malaysia’s national flower Hibiscus and the Es Kachang and Es Campur union. Contact them through Instagram to get the pieces from this collection and enjoy their trip recap video below.
