  • LOL launches digitally customisable fashion platform Cozmic Lab

    LOL launches digitally customisable fashion platform Cozmic Lab

    Malaysian apparel brand LOL has launched an innovation platform called Cozmic Lab. The concept is a collaboration between LOL and Brother, an international printing and imaging technology brand. “Moving beyond the ready-to-wear apparels, Cozmic Lab offers customers an exciting, cost-efficient and environmentally friendly avenue to co-create or customise their own apparel,” said Joey Chong Yan Kit, CEO of Super Gem Resources, the parent of LOL.

    Using digital technology, customers are able to select the apparel’s design, quality, quantity, types and location to collect the final product. And budding entrepreneurs are invited to create their own fashion products using Cozmic Lab.

    “We are bringing a unique blend of fashion and technology to LOL fans,” said Chong.

    “Blending fashion and technology is a global trend and being a fashion-forward brand, LOL believes that Cosmic Lab is a powerful way for us to connect to our customers and engage them through a distinct, innovative and customisable way to shop and experience our brand.

    “Cozmic Lab is also revolutionising the way fashion retail brands do business; we are inviting other entrepreneurs to use the platform to create their very own range of products,” Chong added.

    Exclusive collaborations

    Cozmic Lab has a series of designer and international brand collaborations to enable customers to create apparel unlike anything currently available at LOL. Iconic characters and brands like Doraemon, Peanuts, Sega’s Sonic and Nasa will be among more than 200 visuals customers can choose from – and people can also upload their own creation.

    The Brother digital garment printer takes just one minute to print one item of apparel. Selected footwear and accessories can be custom printed as well.

    Cozmic Lab is available now at the LOL store in IOI City Mall in Putrajaya, and will be opening at LOL stores in Sunway Pyramid, Sunway Velocity, Berjaya Times Square and Paradigm Mall Johor Bahru, this month.

    Fast-growing LOL was founded in November 2015 as a joint venture between Superb Apparel Supply and Parkson Retail Asia. In June this year, the founders acquired Parkson’s 70 per cent stake in the company.

    Currently, LOL has more than 200 employees and 15 stores across Malaysia, including 10 in the Klang Valley, two in Johor Bahru, two in Sarawak and one in Melaka. It plans to open five more next year, most in the Klang Valley.

  • Snoopy Museum Tokyo

    Snoopy Museum Tokyo

    An American cartoon has taken life in Japan with the opening of Snoopy Museum Tokyo, in the Roppongi district.

    As well as exhibitions, the museum shop Brown’s Store will sell exclusive items, while Cafe Blanket will serve food and beverages with a West Coast twist.

    It is the first satellite museum of the California-based Charles M.Schulz Museum and Research Center, named after the comic-strip cartoonist who created Snoopy the dog in his Peanuts series.

    Snoopy Museum Tokyo

    Once every six months, until September 2018, Snoopy Museum Tokyo will exhibit original comic strips and other artworks from the collection of the Charles M. Schulz Museum. At the opening exhibition, My Favorite Peanuts, there were about 150 items chosen by Schulz’s widow Jean, including original comic strips.

    The Brown’s Store will offer more than 500 original items, ranging from stuffed toys, stationery and homegoods to foodstuffs, all developed specially for the Tokyo museum.

    Cafe Blanket will feature a “Snoopy Dish Component” comprising sandwiches, mini corn dogs, potatoes and peanut butter. Pancakes, pizza and “My Sweet Babboo”, a milkshake that appears in works Mrs Schulz chose for the exhibition, will also be served.

    Like the original, Snoopy Museum Tokyo will show the achievements and personality of Charles Schulz through changing exhibitions, seasonal events and workshops. There will be new original content every six months, curated by the Charles M. Schulz Museum. These will include early comics drawn before Peanuts, such as the Li’l Folks cartoons, animation art, Vince Guaraldi’s jazz music from animated Peanuts cartoons, and rare vintage Peanuts memorabilia. Unpublished sketches and artwork by Schulz will be displayed in a special section.

    Mrs Schulz says Peanuts has been loved by Japanese people for more than 40 years.
