Ex-manager turns passion for fashion into a business FMTNews FMTLifestyle

KUALA LUMPUR: “Either I do or die.” That’s what ran through Nick Tan’s mind one night in 2018. Sleep eluded him, and this wasn’t what Tan envisioned when he left his job as a manager in the pharmaceutical industry six months ago.

But Lim, who ran her own business called “Summer by Aisha” selling mainly swimwear, was convinced her husband could do it. “It’s actually like a casual version of a kimono, and you can wear it as a pullover,” he shared, adding that it’s also unisex. Next, Tan introduced a variety of other tie-dye cotton apparel – dresses for women, unisex T-shirts and pants, as well as T-shirts for children.Besides the ‘yukata’, Tan also sells tie-dye cotton dresses at BinaSinar.

Besides selling apparel here, he started a kiosk called “Secawan Sepiring”, offering a variety of food such as nasi lemak and fried noodles as well as beverages. His kiosk, therefore, was a win-win solution: the men enjoyed a cuppa while the women shopped to their heart’s content!Unfortunately, less than a year later, the pandemic hit. Like many non-essential business owners, Tan had to shut the apparel section of his shop.
