An Exclusive Preview of 2014 Collection by Galeri Ariani

Assalamualaikum and hello lovelies!

Last Thursday I had an exciting day as I was invited to an exclusive preview of Galeri Ariani 2014 Collection. The exclusive preview was held at DoubleTree Hotel by Hilton on the 6th March to introduce their latest collection to Galeri Ariani's loyal customers and medias. If you are a head-scarf wearer like I am, then you must be familiar with the brand. Galeri Ariani has been in the market since 2008 and it is one of the prestigious brand among Muslim women in Malaysia. Well honey if you haven't heard about Galeri Ariani, then you should do something about it. ;) What makes Galeri Ariani different from any other brand? If you ask me, it is definitely the quality of their products. Every steps of the way are carefully planned, from the designs, fabrics, lace embroidery and swarovski crystal used during production are executed with a certain quality control. Galeri Ariani promised to deliver the best products and the best service to inspire women to be confident and beautiful at the same time.

Opening speech by Puan Norhana Sharkhan, Marketing Director of Ariani Textiles.

The 2014 Collection is divided into 2 segments which are "Chic Casual" and "Glam Exclusive" where they emphasized on creative and sophisticated designs with the usage of fresh and trendy shades but of course in a modest, Muslimah way. All the fabrics used for the shawls and head scarves are from Italian chiffon, Italian lycra and Thai Silk which are all imported to ensure the quality and standard of the products.

The collection of hijabs in "Chic Casual" includes Tudung Zafira Printed, Selendang Embroidery, Selendang Printed, Selendang Printed Stone, Selendang Crumple, and Aleesya Beaded Block Heavy.

The collection of hijabs in "Glam Exclusive" inclusive of Tudung Zafira Lace, Selendang Art Work, Selendang Stone, Selendang Embroidery, Selendang Lace, Tiara Chiffon 2 Layer, Selendang Stone and Selendang Aleesya Lace. These collections are beautiful and it looks so exclusive yet comfortable and easy to use!

Wardina Saffiya was the face for Galeri Ariani for several years already and it is now to pass on her legacy to a new ambassador. Since Wardina Safiyya is migrating to Australia, she has to let go her title because of the distance but of course she said she will keep on supporting Galeri Ariani for their future projects.

So who's the new face of Galeri Ariani?

The new ambassador for Galeri Ariani 2014 is the wonderful Nurul Syuhada, a TV3 personality who won the 2005 Malaysian Top Host and and drew her name through hosting top shows such as Majalah 3 and Malaysia Hari Ini (MHI). She is beautiful, poise and simply elegant. I really feel it is a good choice because she represents the innocent and graceful a Muslimah should be. :)

During the preview, there were also lucky draws for 66 Ariani's loyal customers. The prizes are damn amazing because they walked away with iphone 5s, Exclusive Iranian Carpet and shopping voucher worth of RM1,000. The contest were held during Galeri Ariani 2013's year end sale so girls, if you want to win any of these lucky draws next year, you better join Galeri Ariani's 2014 year end sale. Well, just a heads up. ;) Another interesting slot during the preview was the bidding of 3 exclusive selendang, only one piece for each design in the entire world so it is very exclusive. The first selendang was sold at RM3,000 (if I'm not mistaken), the second selendang was sold at RM5,000 and the third selendang was sold at RM10,000! I was speechless to be honest but, all the money will go to charity so it's not a big deal. Good job to Galeri Ariani for their effort to give back to the community. :)

The event continues with a special appearance by Datuk Siti Nurhaliza who is now Galeri Ariani icon. She is collaborating with Galeri Ariani to create her own collection called Siti Nurhaliza Collection by Galeri Ariani and her collection will be out on 21st March and will be available till the month of Ramadan. So stay tuned for that okay, don't forget to check out Datuk Siti Nurhaliza Collection, they are so pretty! ^_^ She will also come out with her Ready-To-Wear Collection with Jakel, so keep your eyes on the look out! ;)
