Giving a TED Talk: From a Dream to Reality. When you strive to be a little better every day, amazing things happen—and this TED Talk is proof of that. I’m so grateful that my work isn’t just about creating designs that empower, but about inspiring others to dream big and break barriers in life 🦾
SS26 was magic.
To everyone who showed up, supported, and stood by DL, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
From long nights to last-minute changes, this collection wasn’t easy. But your love reminded me why I do what I do.
DL has never just been about fashion. It’s about turning dreams into reality.
To the Mercedes team, my models, my supporters, and my friends, you made this moment possible.
To the younger me, and to anyone chasing something bigger than themselves, this moment is ours.
This is DICKSON LIM “Lumière Bleeds” Collection.
Thank you @degemdiamond for completing our looks with your iconic fine diamond pieces.
Special thanks to @mercedesbenzmalaysia and @adrianchee for making this show possible and unforgettable.

In the true spirit of "Malaysia Boleh", Sarawak-based designer @thedicksonlim recently made headlines as the first Malaysian menswear designer to have his work featured at the 2026 Met Gala.
#LifestyleAsiaKL spoke to the designer about landing this monumental opportunity, the inspirations behind the look, and what’s next for his brand, DICKSON LIM.

Beyoncé’s stylist TY turned down other designers just to wear DICKSON LIM at the Met Gala! ✨🤯
Here’s how my designs ended up at the Met Gala & Wall Street Journal - featuring Beyoncé.

#FMTLifestyle At eight years old, Kuching-born Dickson Lim was already surrounded by clothes.
Both tailors, his parents spent their days cutting fabric, drafting patterns, and hunched over sewing machines. Like many children of craftsmen, he helped out too, but he hated it.
“I always felt it was very boring,” Lim revealed. “I couldn’t imagine doing this for the rest of my life.”
Yet years later, the same world he once resisted prepared him for a moment few Malaysian designers ever experience: seeing one of his suits worn by a stylist standing beside Beyoncé at the Met Gala in New York City, and appearing on the front page of The Wall Street Journal.
The suit was worn by celebrity stylist Ty Hunter, a longtime fashion figure best known for his work with Beyoncé. According to Lim, Hunter personally requested to wear one of his designs for fashion’s biggest night.
“He told me Beyoncé was returning to the Met Gala after 10 years and that it would be a very special moment,” Lim, 26, shared with FMT Lifestyle.
“A lot of designers reached out to style him for the event, but he only wanted to wear Dickson Lim.”

I genuinely thought this was fake for a second.
My designs on the front cover of The Wall Street Journal… alongside Beyoncé.
Surreal. 🖤
Thank you Ty, for helping realise a dream I never thought was possible.
