With over 6 million followers on Instagram, she also became the first Malaysian celebrity to attend the Salvatore Ferragamo Spring/Summer 2020 show during Milan Fashion Week
Entrepreneur Noor Neelofa Mohd Noor, who was one of the honourees on Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia in 2017, recently attended the Salvatore Ferragamo Spring/Summer 2020 show in Milan. Upon her return to Malaysia, we caught up with her about her experience.
What was the highlight of your Milan Fashion Week trip?
Noor Neelofa Mohd Noor The entire trip was an absolute dream, since I got to attend all these fashion shows, meet people, and wear pieces from these luxury brands. But I would say meeting Halima, an American-Muslim hijab model was one of my highlights because I adore her so much.
What was the most memorable moment you’ve had with the brand?
NNMN There are a few. I love the look that the whole team created for me in Milan. A woman in the US even got excited to see how modest fashion can be contemporary and stylish. The other one would be meeting creative director Paul Andrew backstage after the show. I was surprised to find that he actually follows me on Instagram.
