Question: What does Raya mean to you & what makes it special to your family?

Vivy: Raya is a time for forgiveness, for love, for a refreshed start. I love the way Raya brings families together, everyone is in a good mood and wanting to be better versions of themselves.

To my family, it has a close-to-heart familiar family feel. The thrill of waiting for Raya together, preparing the house with food and lights with my mother, listening to life lessons by my dad – it’s a special magical time where families bond. No matter how old I get, the amazing feeling just never gets old.

Question: What is your personal Raya Styling tips/suggestions for all the ladies?

Vivy: To dress comfortably! Especially on the first day, where you have to visit so many houses and stuff yourself with the yummy ketupat and lemang. Loose, always loose! Now that I have to run around after my kids, comfort is even more important for me.

I’m also very particular when it comes to colour coordination. Not only does the colour have to match, I even want the print and fabric to be the same, therefore I need to custom make my children’s outfits to match with my husband and I. That’s why preparing for the family’s Raya outfits is always a big project for me.

Question: What’s the theme behind dUCk’s signature Raya Collection this year?

Vivy: The Unity dUCk Collection. Inspired by the Blue Mosque in Istanbul, a beautiful place where people of different cultures come together to unite as one. This dUCk has a floral tile base, a Turkish inspired border and Eid Mubarak in Arabic calligraphy. This unique scarf design is to commemorate the special time of the year, we Muslims all over the world love.

I even went to Istanbul for the photo shoot, you can see the photos on Suria KLCC’s digital screens at the Ampang & Ramlee Mall sides.
