FLAG

The first Malaysian LVMH Prize finalist, Moto Guo, opens up about his experience and getting the seal of approval from Karl Lagerfeld. Your reaction when you first found out you were chosen? Over the moon (and at first, we thought it was a scam e-mail!). The experience? Inspiring, intense, and overwhelming. Highlight of the event? When Karl Lagerfeld gave my colour combinations and bubble pleatings his seal of approval. Best advice received? Julie Gilhart and Katherine Ross told me to keep up the energy and humour in our work because the industry needs them! Perak-born Moto Guo
