Lewré’s 20th Anniversary at The Gardens

Hello readerss ..

Lewré’ Bespoke recently celebrated its 20th Anniversary with a grand celebration held at The Gardens Mall, Kuala Lumpur and Misz-ella.blogspot.com was invited to be part of the glorious ceremony.

I was there together with my bestfriend, the lovely Puan Sri Shariffa Sabrina Syed Akil who was among the esteemed guests.

Lewré’s 20th Anniversary Celebration was officiated by the Royal Patron, Her Royal Highness Sultanah of Pahang, Sultanah Hajjah Kalsom on 25 September 2017 at The Gardens Mall, Kuala Lumpur. Former Minister of International Trade and Industry, Tan Sri Rafidah Aziz, who played a role in encouraging Dato’ Lewre Lew, the founder of Lewré in moving the Lewré brand to where it is today, also graced the event. 

During the 20th Anniversary Celebration, Dato’ Lew also launched his first coffee table book, ‘Luminous Ray’, which highlights the journey of Lewré to its success in becoming an award winning shoe couturier. Dato’ Lew stresses “The big goal in Lewré is to continue pushing the boundaries in shoe design. From the very beginning, our company’s goal is to push the boundaries of shoe design.” 

In conjunction with the 20th Anniversary, Lewré Galleria are currently happening until 29 September 2017 at The Gardens Mall, showcasing Lewré’s creations for the public to see and appreciate the 20 years of diligence and milestones achieved by the brand.

Dato’ Lew then accompanied Her Royal Highness, Sultanah Hajjah Kalsom, Tan Sri Rafidah Aziz and esteemed guests on a tour around the Galleria.

Dato’ Lew hopes to inspire the younger generation and to remain a homegrown international market leader in the art of shoe design and bespoke creation. The brand first started in 1997 when Dato’ Lew ventured into creating his own designs and brand. Lewré first started as an OEM and then ODM manufacturer under the Roondy Trading Sdn. Bhd (RTSB) trade name in 1987. Since then, the humble company soon enticed businesses from 40 other countries from multiple continents. After achieving worldwide recognition with RTSB, he decided to venture into creating his own brand. Lewré is now a personalised shoe couture that creates shoes on a much more personal level.

These displays highlight the values of Lewré that focuses on pushing the boundaries of shoe design and to be on the forefront of using advanced technology in shoe manufacturing and design. The works displayed includes a brief write-up of its idea and inspiration of each artwork when creating the pair of shoe. It also highlights the 3 main elements from the conception of idea to visualization from the artwork and lastly, production and the pair of Lewré shoes. Among the other displays are a craftsmen’s booth where tools of the trade are displayed as well. This includes the hand tools and shoe lasts that are used in the actual process of making a shoe. 

Galleria also displayed Dato’ Lew’s paintings of friends who have in one way or another inspired him and positively contributed to his life and brand. The art that is painted by Dato’ Lew is a token of appreciation to the person for their kindness and generosity. 

Amongst those paintings that on display that of Puan Sri Shariffa Sabrina, Dato’ Siti Nurhaliza, Dato’ Sheila Majid, Datin Winnie Loo and Chui Ling. The Inspiration Dato’ Lew credits much of his success and inspirations to his mentors and friends who have in one way contributed to the success of Lewré. 

Being an artist himself who paints and draws, a big part of his inspiration comes in the form of artistic expressions. He sees with his eyes and his heart appreciates what he sees. This is subsequently translated to his hands illustrating and painting the art. Most of the shoe designs in Lewré are influenced by art in one way or another. A big part of Lewré’s vision is also to ‘constantly push boundaries’.

Puan Sri Shariffa Sabrina with her painting and wearing  Lewré's bespoke shoe made specially for herself. The Wedge booties named Ray Of Light were made personally to suit Puan Sri Shariffa Sabrina who has a bold personality and edgy in style.

The modern and structural design made the shoe and her stand out. Puan Sri Shariffa Sabrina has been a loyal customer of Lewré for three years. When asked ~ Which is your favourite design Puan Sri? I can't comment much as all shoes made by Lewré are special and carry its own characters to suits my daily wear needs.
