SIBU: The Fashion & Bridal Fair at Wisma Sanyan last weekend showcased not only garments and accessorie­s for newlyweds, but also items and other materials meant to complement other preparatio­ns for one’s big day.

Hosted by Wisma Sanyan management and jointly organised by designers from Kuching, namely TeeCode, MCN Studio, Style Series, JK Studio and Yacutha, the event also highlighte­d the exclusive ‘Designer-Piece’ from MCN Studio, together with other offerings from cosponsors Tanahmas Hotel, Idees Decorating and ZOSO Music.

“In facing challenges brought by the Covid-19 pandemic and complying with the standard operating procedures (SOP) set by the authoritie­s, there is also a need to enliven our lives with a positive outlook and through cheerful events,” said Wisma Sanyan in a statement.

Sibu Resident Charles Siaw was the event’s guest-of-honour, and he was accompanie­d by Sibu Municipal Council (SMC) chairman Clarence Ting and Pelita Towerview Sdn Bhd executive director Mohammad Yakub Mohammad Tufail.

After hosting the Fashion & Bridal Show, it would move on to its signature culinary event, ‘Pesta Santapan Borneo Sanyan 2020’, set to run from Sept 15 to Oct 18.
