The Sleek Avenue is where editorial ideas come to life.
Malaysian-born, Auckland-based Aki Ang believes that fashion photography and videography play important roles to further amplify a designer’s idea and vision. She is passionate about translating fashion pieces into beautiful storytelling. Aki founded her brand in 2016 and has been growing her fashion portfolio on top of her advertising agency art director career ever since.
HER BACKGROUND
With over 10 years’ experience in the creative industry, Aki has worked nearly every angle of advertising, specialising in the visual appeal of brands.
After graduating from The Wanganui School of Design she left New Zealand to take up a creative role in Singapore. This opened the doors to pursue her passion for luxury advertising and she welcomed the opportunity to direct fashion campaigns for respected brands such as The Dubai Mall, Hilton Asia Pacific, BMW and Shiseido.
Nowadays, Aki helps create visual magic at TBWA\ Auckland with a team of dedicated Social Media Gurus while splitting her time providing brand consultancy and creating content between New Zealand, Australia and Europe.
HER STYLE
“This globetrotting Kiwi’s sense of style is so elaborate it hurts. Bringing high-end pieces and bold pairings to the forefront, Aki Ang’s “more is more” philosophy has her follower’s heads spinning as her style and talent provoke nothing more than pure envy”, quoted Fashion Quarterly, leading New Zealand fashion magazine.
