KUALA LUMPUR, May 11 — Generation Z sometimes gets a bad rep for being vain, lazy and feeling entitled to success.Lee is the founder of Outdwell a fashion brand of unique clothing pieces focused on giving artists the image they want.Using Asian hip hop artists from China and Taiwan as an influence, Outdwell sets its target for the young and vibrant rule-breakers such as himself.

“So when I discovered fashion I got excited at how fun the process was with drawing and sewing my own clothes.” “I just keep watching music videos and listening to music. Imagining what would I do if I was the rapper on stage. How would I want my clothes to stand out?” he said.Taking cues from Asian style as opposed to Western trends, Lee always finds something interesting or unexpected in Chinese or Taiwanese artists.

“Actually, all the pants at our first show did not fit the models. So I was panicking for a few good minutes,” recalled Lee."The good thing that came from all the mishaps was that I now recognise the type of people that I’m dealing with and who to avoid,” Lee added.

But then again it's all about motivation because when I started, the motivation for me was Mercedes-Benz.
