According to Dato' Farah Khan, the idea of combining chocolate with art interpreting into fashion pieces is a brilliant collaboration. It has given her great pleasure to be part of this collaboration. Regarded as a style icon and known for creating inspiring fashion pieces, Dato’ Farah Khan created The Pleasure Seekers Collection. The special capsule collection inspired by MAGNUM Ice Cream’s 5 iconic and unique flavours – the MAGNUM Gold, MAGNUM Classic, MAGNUM Almond, MAGNUM Chocolate Brownie and MAGNUM Chocolate & Strawberry. The one-of-a-kind collection infuses MAGNUM Ice Cream’s decadent richness with FARAH KHAN’S distinctive design vision. Effortlessly glamorous, the exclusive pieces were brought to life by FARAH KHAN’s signature delicate beads and embellishments that were hand-sewn, bead-by-bead to ensure each piece is as beautiful as its craftsmanship. 

The collection was debuted with a grand entrance of Precious Gold, a stunning creation inspired by MAGNUM Gold. The dress was designed with hand-embroidered antique gold beads in swirling light and dark hues. The exquisite detailing of the design amplifies the attitude of MAGNUM Gold - delightful and utterly divine. 

The next FARAH KHAN piece - Luscious Chocolate & Strawberry was inspired by the luscious flavour of the MAGNUM Chocolate & Strawberry, swirls of hand-sewn adornments in golden brown compliments the stunning piece with a glamorous allure. The sumptuous sparkle replicates the sheer delight of the MAGNUM indulgence. 

The rich taste of the MAGNUM Chocolate Brownie inspired FARAH KHAN’s creative team to invent Luxurious Chocolate Brownie, the third look which is a delicious piece, delicately crafted and drenched with glorious matte and shiny rich brown beads and embroidery. 

The fashion show continued with Heavenly Almond, a FARAH KHAN number that is inspired by the texture symphony of the MAGNUM Almond. Carefully hand-beaded by artisans around South East Asia, a mixture of matte and shiny brown chocolate beads and specks of frosted bronze embellishments adorn this inimitable piece. 

For the fifth look, FARAH KHAN wowed the crowd with Irresistibly Classic. Inspired by the all-time-favourite MAGNUM Classic featuring shades of opulent bronze were used by the FARAH KHAN creative team to mirror the smooth and silky Belgian Chocolate coating of this iconic favourite.
