An evening at Jovian Mandagie's boutique.



I was at Jovian Mandagie's boutique in Jalan Telawi, Bangsar, when Syed (Erra Fazira's manager) popped by. Syed and I are very good friends. We click.

When managers meet, they almost always gossip exchange information about the latest news, bitch discuss current issues and generally have a good time talking shop. Being in a business where looking immaculate is of the utmost importance, we also inevitably exchange the latest make-up and beauty tips.

Syed: You should try MAC's latest eye cream, Fast Response.

Me: Are you saying I look tired?

Syed: Darling, when are we ever not tired?

Me: When we're sitting in Jovian's comfy office sipping black-currant tea and making ourselves at home.

Half an hour later, Ning and Erra came over. We joined them downstairs and had another boisterous session of gossiping exchanging information about the latest news and bitching discussing current issues.





Jovian is extremely busy these few days. Plenty of dresses and gowns to design and create and deadlines to meet. I would offer to help but I don't think my non-existent sewing skills would be of any use.

If you happen to be in the Bangsar area, just go over to his boutique. It's directly in front of the Jalan Telawi Post Office. Lots of French lace, sumptuous Indonesian batiks, and even ready-to-wear kebayas and tops, and fabulous new materials and fabrics just in. You can also get a close-up look at the masterpieces worn by Ning, Erra, Linda, Anita, Umie, Dato' Sharifah Aini and Dato' Siti. They're all on display. (The dresses, not the people.) Walk-in customers welcome.



I'll probably get murdered for putting this picture of Erra without make-up and Ning without hair-spray but I'll risk it.



And contrary to popular belief, Jovian's prices are reasonably and relatively affordable. So, ladies, what are you waiting for? And you never know who you might just bump into.
