Spice Up Your Accessory Game With New Malaysian Brand pokédots!
Malaysian shoppers looking to add a dose of fun and self-expression to their daily routines now have a new brand to discover. Enter pokédots, a fresh lifestyle label that's all about bold energy, creativity, and customisation. Officially launched in 1 Utama, pokédots. offers a playful approach to accessories and fashion with its unique concept: users can 'poke' interchangeable patches, pins, and charms into specially designed holes—or 'dots'—on their bags and accessories, creating endlessly personalised looks. At the centre of the brand's debut is the Carry All bag, made from durable, water-resistant EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate), a material that's lightweight, easy to clean, and certified under the Global Recycled Standard 4.0. Designed for versatility, the spacious bag transitions effortlessly from office companion to gym tote or even a stylish diaper bag for busy parents. Adding to the fun, pokédots. introduces the Café de Pokédots pin collection, a whimsical capsule of food-themed charms ranging from breakfast favourites to fast food delights, with charming nods to Japanese cuisine and patisseries. Customers can choose from statement singles or curated 6-piece sets. Matching accessories include notebook purses, coin pouches, and phone cases, all crafted in the brand's signature style. The pokédots experience extends to fashion with a range of fluid-sized apparel for both men and women. The T-shirt collection comes in slim and oversized fits, with colourways including classic black, navy, and white, alongside soft pastels like blush pink and sky blue. Made for Malaysia's tropical heat, the shirts are crafted from high-performance Sorona® fabric, offering antibacterial properties, cooling technology, and UV protection. To celebrate its launch, pokédots. is offering an in-store exclusive promotion throughout its first month: with every purchase, customers can spin the gashapon machine for a chance to win a carabiner or pin. Those who purchase a Carry All bag will also receive a complimentary 6-piece pin set. Shoppers can explore pokédots. at its physical store in 1 Utama (Second Floor, SK3D), online at or via Shopee (POKEDOTS.). Follow them on Instagram (@ and Facebook (@Pokédots.) for the latest updates and collection drops. Alyssa Gabrielle contributed to this article

Louis Vuitton Has Bumped Up Handbag Prices in the U.S.
Amid the upheaval of the Trump administration's tariffs, Louis Vuitton handbags just became more expensive in the U.S. Luxury analysts at Bernstein and Barclays flagged that the French luxury brand has bumped up prices by roughly 4 percent on More from WWD Kering Shares Fall 6% After Weak Q1 Results Fashion Expected to Star in NFL Draft as Players Prepare to Shine Hermès Continues to Increase Handbag Production Amid Rising Demand 'This price increase likely comes as a response to the recent introduction of a 10 percent tariff in the U.S. The price increased ranged from +7 percent for some bags like the NeoNoe to 1 percent for products like the Twist or Keepall,' Barclays analyst Carole Madjo wrote in a research note Thursday. However, it is understood Vuitton typically institutes price increases around this time of the year. Madjo noted her team also detected price bumps of 3 percent in Japan and 2 percent in France. Luca Solca, analyst at Bernstein, noted that prices were unchanged for CarryAll, Biker, All In and Graceful handbag ranges, suggesting these products may be produced in the U.S., where Vuitton operates three leather goods production sites in Texas and California. In his view, Vuitton's average price increase of 3.6 percent 'seems more than enough to cover even the worst-case scenario of 20 percent tariffs on EU exports from the U.S.' What's more, 'these price increases provide a case in point: the first level impact of tariffs will be negligible,' according to Solca, arguing that megabrands like Vuitton in particular 'remain highly desirable and command clear pricing power.' In addition, given that tariffs are also applied to 'industrial first cost,' Bernstein expects price increases on luxury goods to be 'well below the 10 percent headline number, falling within the 5 to 7 percent like-for-like price inflation the industry has seen over the past 50 years.' Analysts are more concerned about the wider impact of tariffs on consumer sentiment, financial markets and currencies. Last week, Hermès International said it would increase prices across various product lines in the U.S. effective May 1 to offset the tariff impact, as reported.
