My Couture rancang pelbagai segmen pakaian



Pembekal dan pemborong pakaian sedia dipakai keluaran My Couture Sdn Bhd (My Couture) merancang meneroka lebih banyak segmen pakaian dalam bagi mengembangkan sayap perniagaan pada masa hadapan.

Pengarah kreatifnya, Hanim Sahrom berkata, syarikat berhasrat mengeluarkan pakaian dalam dan aksesori tambahan berjenama sendiri.

“Segmen ini bakal menjadi cabang bisnes kedua bergerak seiringan koleksi lain seperti baju kurung tradisional, jubah, kebaya, batik, pareo, kurta, hijab dan skarf,” katanya yang membuka butik pertama di Seksyen 23, Shah Alam pada awal tahun ini.

Menurutnya, pasaran pakaian dalam itu mempunyai potensi dan pengalaman diperoleh ketika terlibat dengan dunia pemasaran pakaian dalam di sebuah syarikat jualan langsung.

“Idea untuk berniaga sendiri timbul setelah lama bekerja, saya yakin perusahaan ini mempunyai masa depan cerah dengan sokongan penuh daripada rakan kongsi, iaitu dramatis terkenal, Rozita Che Wan,” katanya.

Beliau berkata, RM100,000 adalah pelaburan untuk membuka butik.

“Sebelum membangunkan laman web dan berurus niaga dalam talian, kami telah menerima tempahan secara runcit daripada luar negara seperti United Kingdom, Timur Tengah dan Jerman,” katanya bersedia menerima tempahan secara terus di laman sesawangnya yang telah dilawati lebih 49,000 orang sejak dilancarkan Mei lalu.

Setiap rekaan dan koleksi dipasarkan adalah eksklusif kerana diilhamkan sendiri syarikat diinspirasi melalui kehendak wanita yang ingin tampil anggun setiap masa.

WHY CHIFFON? IS THE BEST CHOICE?

Chiffon, French pronunciation: [ʃi.fɔ̃], from the French word for a cloth or rag, is a lightweight, balanced plain-woven sheer fabric woven of alternate S- and Z- twist crepe (high-twist) yarns.

The twist in the crepe yarns puckers the fabric slightly in both directions after weaving, giving it some stretch and a slightly rough feel.

Chiffon is made from cotton, silk or synthetic fibres.

Chiffon can be dyed to almost any shade desired, but if it is made out of polyester it can be difficult to dye. Under a magnifying glass it resembles a fine net or mesh which gives chiffon some see-through properties.

Chiffon is most commonly used in evening wear, especially as an overlay, giving an elegant and floating appearance to the gown.

It is also a popular fabric used in blouses, ribbons, scarves and lingerie. Like other crêpe fabrics, chiffon can be difficult to work with because of its light and slippery textures. Due to this delicate nature, chiffon must be hand washed very gently.

Since chiffon is a light weight fabric that frays very easily, bound or French seams must be used to stop the fabric from fraying. Chiffon is smoother and more lustrous than the similar fabric georgette. 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

NOTES: MM - momme. Momme is the measurement for weight of silk, 16mm is twice as heavy as 8mm, so 8mm is light weight, 16mm is medium weight, 28 mm is heavy weight.
