An ultimate form of collaboration was achieved by top fashion designers from Kuala Lumpur and Indonesia, Melinda Looi, Syaiful Baharim, Tom Abang Saufi and Milo Migliavaccca.\u00a0 They were joined by their Philippine counterparts, JC Buendia and Jun Escario.\u00a0 Veejay Hughes, flew in from London to render musical numbers, much to the delight of the audience.\u00a0 On hand to welcome the guests were H.E.
