Fashion<br />
It all started in a shared university accommodation numbered<br />
27 in Kuala Lumpur with an initial capital of RM200 each from<br />
five ordinary Malaysian teenagers, four years ago.<br />
Today, the team sells customised tie-dye t-shirts and football<br />
jerseys to the entire nation and collections are often sold out.<br />
The fab five are Rashdan Nasarruddin, Rezuan Rahmat, Hafiiz<br />
Yusoff, Hidzir Azizan and Hakim Hasan. Together, they are<br />
known as – 27 Legacy Tie-Dye.<br />
Rashdan, who handles marketing matters within the company,<br />
said, "Our sales figures are amazing and I can safely say<br />
Malaysians are proud to tell the world that they are Malaysians<br />
(by wearing our clothing). Each year, our clothing with the<br />
Malaysian flag design grows and we have a steady number<br />
of customers from all races purchasing and wearing the Jalur<br />
Gemilang tie-dye t-shirt."<br />
He said the collection showcasing the Malaysian flag was<br />
named the Jalur Gemilang collection as Jalur Gemilang is the<br />
second name for the nation's flag.<br />
In this era, Rashdan said people often forget to show their<br />
love and appreciation to their home country.<br />
"We forget the struggles the people of the past took in order<br />
to create the Malaysia we live in today. The struggles to achieve<br />
balance within a multiracial community in such a beautiful<br />
country. For us at 27 Legacy Tie-Dye, by producing these<br />
clothing, this is how we show our love and appreciation to<br />
our nation."<br />
