Terangkan serba sedikit tentang diri anda.
Nama saya Fatimah Muhsin. Saya berasal dari Singapura. I’ve been in this bridal business for the past 18 years. I run a bridal gallery in Singapore. I started off as a celebrity makeup artist and kalau di Singapura tu, Alhamdulillah semua orang kenal siapa Fatimah Muhsin. I do a lot of makeup, a lot of celebrity’s weddings. My team don’t just focus on bridal, but also on styling for television program, wedding planning services in Singapore, we have a lot of subsidiary business tapi di Malaysia ini, saya masih mula bertapak. So, I’m still very new in this market in Malaysia. So, my passion for really focusing on designing started 10 years ago, Initial, macam 18 years ago, tu because I run a bridal gallery, citizen in Singapore is not into custom trend, simpan baju pengantin lepas pakai. It’s just that apa yang kita ketengahkan, apa collection kita ada, they rent it from there. So, only ten years ago, yang I betul-betul tiap-taip baju tu kalau I buat I put in a lot of effort. We can come out with a collection within one to two months. But in Malaysia, rata-rata semua orang beli baju pengantin custom tetapi in Singapore masih belum banyak lagi yang beli dan simpan. Now, I’m educating the Singapore clients to just appreciate baju pengantin kerana we only wear it once, so how much you spend Is your life time. Kita juga ada koleksi busana pengantin yang mampu milik for the brides to choose from. My client came from different sizes therefore, I also design dresses in different size.
Inspirasi disebalik koleksi debut ini?
It’s more feminine and sexy. My last travel is winter holiday, I like all the white snow and if you see all my design ad macam akar yang menjalar naik and sometimes, my anak cakap, duduk dalam tren, “wah, cantiknya this snow jatuh.” Walaupun I macam tomboi macam ini I still like the princess theme. I want the bride feel like a princess. Tiap-tiap pengantin tu pada I nak kena manis. Actually, I took about two months to complete the collection for this show. Ini hasil kerja keras selama dua bulan. I dapat invitation to this show bukan pada enam bulan yang lalu. So, memang I fikir sama ada nak join or not tapi bila dah decide untuk join the show, we worked hard nonstop to complete the collection. In Singapore, we had limited resources therefore I will go to business trip to sort out the materials. Satu rekaan baju telah melalui pelbagai proses because the design requires a lot of workmanship. So, one dress will travel from one country to the other for completion. The reason that I want to base in Malaysia is because in Singapore, the manpower cost and overheads is super high. I ada seamstress yang I import dari China. I interviewed them via online. I’ve got variety of manpower from different country to help me in completing the collection.
Koleksi anda ini 100% buatan tangan atau mesin?
Hand sewn. Jahit pakai mesinlah tapi the details semua jahit pakai pakai tangan. Dua minggu sebelum show saya ada fitting and that is my first and last fitting with the models. Model ini ada yang saiz dia kecil, kecil sangat dan ada yang besar sikit. At the time, koleksi I baru siap 10 sahaja. So, bila I balik, I need to do adjustment on the dress. So, it’s quite busy month for me and my team. But it is all worth it.
Material yang digunakan untuk koleksi kali ini?
As you can see a lot of my collection use a plain tulle, kita em braided on the fabric and some of the laces, kita do 3D design on the laces and after that I try to blend semua fabrik like songket and brocade so that the collection looks perfect for this show.
Apa yang anda harapkan dari pasaran fesyen pengantin di Malaysia?
Definitely to have all the support that I can have and I think we need to work extra hard sebab dekat sini competition pun boleh tahan. So, I will try my best in this market.
