A familiar face. A continued journey. A lasting presence. ✨

Representing a rich blend of Thai and Vietnamese heritage, her presence embodies the cross-cultural narrative at the heart of FOMA.

Her continued commitment this year is more than participation — it is a testament to growth, loyalty, and belief in a platform that champions creative evolution. As both an ambassador and collaborator, Éclair continues to carry forward the values of FOMA and Gandhi Creations with authenticity and grace.

This is what continuity looks like.
This is what building together feels like.

Fashion serves as a vehicle for storytelling and collective memory.
MY PALOMA is a slow fashion house defined by the intersection of Latin heritage and Australian design sensibilities. Rooted in the belief that garments should hold memory rather than momentum, each piece is an exploration of cultural craft and contemporary refinement. By connecting Latin American artistry to a global stage, the brand sustains traditions that are often overlooked, transforming heritage into emotional architecture. This is luxury that does not compete but endures.
