Hi, I’m Kay Chow from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Managing Director of Dressing Paula, and I’ve been part of the brand’s journey for the past 16 years, helping shape it into what it is today.
OUR BRAND STORY:
We saw a gap in the market for well-made, dependable pieces. Clothes that you reach for often, and that hold up over time. Dressing Paula was built on creating quality classics designed to last and stay relevant in your wardrobe.
OUR DESIGN INSPIRATION:
We design for real, everyday life — building a wardrobe that moves with you through different moments of the day, with ease and versatility.
OUR PROUDEST MOMENT:
Diverting close to 500kg of plastic waste from landfill and transforming it into in-store furnishings.
OUR VISION:
To create a larger impact — supporting women’s rights and development, while continuing to improve our environmental footprint.
MORE ABOUT DRESSING PAULA:
Proudly Malaysian, Dressing Paula was founded in 2010, built on the belief that clothing should be both beautiful and purposeful, thoughtfully crafted wardrobe essentials that combine refined tailoring, quality materials, and effortless versatility.
From the beginning, our focus has been to create pieces that move naturally with women’s lives. Garments designed not only to be worn, but lived in, accompanying moments of ambition, creativity, and self-expression.
Today, we continue to take an ever-evolving and contemporary approach to apparel and accessories, balancing design innovation with quintessential ready-to-wear styles.
We obsess over small details.
Those that goes unnoticed but creates the strong foundation of the garment. Like a perfectly tailored feeling without going to a tailor.
Our in-house design team brings a distinctive understanding of proportion and fit, particularly for Asian women. Through thoughtful construction and precise tailoring, our collections are designed to flatter, support movement, and offer comfort without compromising elegance.
The result is clothing designed to live in your wardrobe, not just for a season, but for years.
