The Artist and Visionary
At just 27, Mutiara Sayoon stands as a rare creative force — an Indonesian artist, storyteller, and multidimensional woman who blurs the lines between luxury fashion, corporate leadership, and narrative art. Her journey is a living canvas where identity, artistry, and ambition converge into something truly timeless.
La Parelen: Storytelling in Fabric
As the founder and creative director of La Parelen, a slow fashion brand inspired by the refined spirit of Luxembourg, Mutiara channels exclusivity, craftsmanship, and cultural storytelling into each creation. The brand is not only a reflection of her artistic vision but also a platform where fashion becomes narrative — weaving heritage, place, and identity into wearable art. Her milestone of being the first Indonesian influencer featured on three digital covers of MOVER Magazine (June 2025 issue) cements her role as a trailblazer representing Indonesia on the global stage.
Corporate Leadership to Global Influence
Parallel to her artistic journey, Mutiara built an impressive corporate career. As Assistant Manager at Tradeasia International, she spearheaded the Food Chemicals SBU and played a decisive role in expanding into the Fast-Moving Consumer Goods sector. Armed with academic foundations from the University of Indonesia and the University of Queensland, she mastered the balance between strategy and creativity. Now, as she prepares for her MBA in Luxury Brand Management at Glasgow Caledonian University London, she has stepped back from her corporate role — choosing to embrace a period of exploration, travel, and global collaborations with brands such as Calvin Klein and Frank & Co.
The Storyteller’s Soul
Beyond boardrooms and runways, Mutiara is a storyteller at heart. Her writing is steeped in love, longing, and identity — narratives that mirror the same emotional depth seen in her fashion and leadership. Whether through words, fabrics, or strategy, she translates yearning and intimacy into experiences that resonate deeply.
The Trinity of Identity: Pearl, Mutiara, Sayoon
Mutiara has redefined self-expression through three intertwined identities. Pearl — her iconic, public-facing self. Mutiara— her personal, intimate identity. SAYOON — her stage name in modeling, a persona that will one day extend into acting and music. Together, these dimensions form a complete portrait: a woman unafraid to embrace complexity, ambition, and reinvention.
Looking Beyond the Horizon
For Mutiara Sayoon, the journey is only beginning. To her, the sky is not the limit — it is merely the view. With artistry, leadership, and vision at her core, she is determined not only to create and inspire but also to remain useful to the world for as long as she lives.
