🌸 VariAsians 2025: In Bloom 🌸

We’re blossoming into a new year with In Bloom, our celebration of culture, creativity, and community! 🌺

This year’s theme draws inspiration from the beauty of nature! Think florals, growth, and renewal 🌷. Our dress code reflects this vision: a floral-inspired color palette and attire that celebrates heritage and modern style alike — from traditional Asian silhouettes to chic Western looks. Whether it’s hanbok hues, sari blossoms, qipao florals, or soft pastel suits and dresses — let your outfit tell your story 🌼✨

🌸 Theme: In Bloom
🎨 Dress Code: Florals Galore
👗 Style: Traditional x Western Fusion

Come through and show how you bloom 🌿💮
