"Following my passion is literally like jumping off a cliff", is how Mun Foong, owner and designer of fashion label A.K.A Wayward, describes her transition from graphic to fashion design.

Originally trained as a graphic designer and having worked in advertising for a number of years, Mun Foong's story is one about childhood interests - cutting up living room curtains to make cloths - to switching careers to follow a passion, even if it means having to teach herself all the skills needed, right from scratch.
