If you’ve noticed, the majority of fashion shows take place in shopping centres or other indoor settings, and they feature a catwalk where models pose in outfits created by various fashion designers.

Can you imagine riding the MRT train and then finding yourself surrounded by stunning “passenger models” as a catwalk fashion display is taking place INSIDE the moving train?

That’s exactly what happened when the MRT train left Surian MRT station and travelled to Maluri MRT station, where a larger stage was used to continue the “moving” runway featuring  AEON’s fashion brands and highlighting the latest in trends, styles, colours and textures.

Tri-annual AEON Fashion Preview (AFP) 2022 was held last week on June 30 and was organised by AEON Retail Malaysia. Moving MRT train carriages were filled with media invitees in the row of seats as several models walked in the middle lane while styling clothes from AEON – and tried precariously to maintain their balance while holding a Bluetooth speaker!

Netizens were all in support of AEON’s creative marketing stunt, with many approving the fact that this fashion show appealed to the masses in several ways – from allowing the general public access to view it, to having fashion models of various diverse shapes and nationalities, and featuring extremely affordable yet fashionable clothes that the average Malaysian can afford to buy!

“How did they manage not to fall (during the train ride)?” a netizen commented, to which AEON responded with ‘that’s why they are models!’.
