What started as a passion project to bring the creativity of the best and upcoming fashion designers from South Asia to Singapore has now grown into a thriving e-commerce platform. Melange is a labour of love, as I carefully curate each collection from various brands.<\/p>\n<p>My career started in hospitality, back in 1999, armed with an MBA in marketing. After experiencing different cultures in India, Bahrain, Dubai, Macao and Singapore, I finally had the opportunity to start this platform in 2014. Unable to access authentic South Asian fashion in Singapore, I realised it was a challenge for the entire South Asian diaspora as well as the local community.<\/p>\n<p>Melange has since grown from strength to strength to become the go-to brand for all South Asian fashion desires in Southeast Asia &#8211; with a goal of expanding to the rest of the world.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_269085\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-269085\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-269085 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/samia-khan-melange-event-900x643.png\" alt=\"samia khan | melange event\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/samia-khan-melange-event-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/samia-khan-melange-event-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/samia-khan-melange-event.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-269085\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Samia Khan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>What has been your biggest challenge so far and how did you overcome it?<\/h3>\n<p>Getting the business off the ground wasn\u2019t easy, but the biggest challenge was when Covid hit us in 2020. Our offline vertical had many limitations. It threw a significant challenge for my business and we had to reinvent ourselves. The priority was to ensure our survival, and being a small business helped. Once we made sure of that, my team and I worked towards setting up our e-commerce platform.<\/p>\n<p>My biggest accomplishment is launching the online store in October 2020 under difficult circumstances, with limited knowledge of online retail. A significant number of sleepless nights, numerous conversations, experimentation and loads of coffee helped us get to that.<\/p>\n<p>But our hard work has paid off now because we have over 50 top and upcoming South Asian designers working with Melange online &#8211; and it continues to grow. The last two years have seen positive growth; we have plans to scale up the e-commerce business and grow it within Southeast Asia and the US.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_269083\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-269083\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-269083 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/samia-khan-melange-founder-900x643.png\" alt=\"samia khan | melange founder\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/samia-khan-melange-founder-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/samia-khan-melange-founder-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/samia-khan-melange-founder.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-269083\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Samia Khan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>How do you stay motivated and energised?<\/h3>\n<p>I exercise regularly which keeps me energised on a daily basis. I&#8217;m a firm believer in being led by the dreams in my heart and not being pushed around by fears in my mind. My motivation comes from the love of what I do and that keeps me going! My passion is the key to my success.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you deal with self-doubt or criticism?<\/h3>\n<p>I use a combination of self-discovery and seeking help. I take time to reflect on my weaknesses and do a \u201cstop\u201d and \u201cstart\u201d assessment. This has proven to be a great intervention to overcome my shortcomings when I&#8217;m in self-doubt. Seeking help and confiding in trusted sources has also helped in growing my confidence and clearing the doubt.<\/p>\n<h3>Favourite place to work?<\/h3>\n<p>My home office!
