Sharminidevi, known worldwide as Sharwita, has returned from her second appearance on the 78th Cannes Film Festival 2025 Red Carpet with a mission bigger than herself. After walking one of the world’s most iconic carpets once again, she is more determined than ever to position Malaysia as a rising global hub for fashion, film, and sustainability.
Sharwita’s journey began on the runway, but she never stayed in one lane. After years of modelling, she shifted her focus in 2016 toward fashion entrepreneurship and women’s empowerment. With two decades of experience and more than 200 fashion shows under her belt, both locally and internationally, she now stands as one of Malaysia’s strongest voices in fashion leadership. Today, she serves as a consultant and strategic partner to brands, designers, and industry players who value her insight and vision.
As the Founder and Managing Director of Le Fashion Secret, Sharwita has built an ecosystem that goes far beyond modelling. Her work spans model development, talent management, strategic fashion consulting, and professional runway coaching. She also leads Le Fashion Secret Models & Talent Agency, shaping the next generation of Malaysian models with the standards and discipline of the global stage.

Her vision is clear:
"My aim is to create an ecosystem that links Malaysian talent with global designers, media, and fashion houses. Education, exposure, and access are key."
Through every runway, partnership, and program she leads, Sharwita continues to prove that Malaysia has a place on the world stage—and she is determined to help the next generation claim it.
