Rogue-ish hosted a special weekend presentation by Flowerdrum Bags founder Rina Matsui-Houghton on Dec 11th at No. 19 Jalan Berangan. This exhibition of one-off pieces was inspired by 6-word memoirs of 30-something Malaysian women written by Suhana Dewi Selamat. Rina interpreted the essays in visual and textural form on everyday things that women see and touch, wear and use in the home.<\/p>\n

Inspired by the nostalgic whimsy of Rina\u2019s vintage materials and the charming furniture borrowed from our neighbour, The Curiousity Shop<\/a>,<\/a> we decided to host a retro afternoon tea party resplendent with cupcakes, shortbread fingers, chiffon cakes, cocktail sausages and pineapples on sticks, iced lemon tea and good ol\u2019 Pimms No. 1. The weekend would not have been complete without a small sale of Flowerdrum Bags with vintage prints and designs that made the ladies go weak.<\/p>\n

We were so chuffed with the set up the show that we thought we\u2019d share a few pictures of the afternoon with you. (It\u2019s may not be Betty Drabble\u2019s perfectly put together home but it is good enough for some of us to live the fantasy for a minute or two.)<\/p>\n
