30 years of love as Charles and Ron celebrate their anniversary
Jun 13 2022 Share

Charles and Ron van Maarschalkerweerd Borg, whose names have become an iconic staple for Malta’s fashion world, are celebrating their 30th anniversary, with a new apparel line released in celebration. 

With a romantic photograph portraying them earlier on in their relationship posted to Charles’s Instagram, the two have been through a lot together, touring even international fashion shows with their creative works and designs. 

The Charles&Ron brand has more than once stolen the show at various shows, with the noteworthy Fall/Winter 2020 collection ‘L’Arlogg tal-Lira’ making waves in New York. The brand was even eyed by pop sensation Ariana Grande as she donned gloves during an episode of The Voice. 

Speaking during a 2020 interview with the Sunday Circle’s Iggy Fenech, in celebration of their 28th anniversary during Pride Month, the two articulated some of their relationship’s past. 

Ron explained to Fenech that they had met at a club in Amsterdam in 1992 when he had seen Charles looking a bit tired on the dance floor. Charles was convinced to stay for an extra week and the rest is history.

Fenech said that such relationships remind them of how many could have had this bliss but were denied it by inequality and ignorance. ‘So let us celebrate all that has been achieved, but also work harder at giving others the key to happiness.’

‘And now Gi-hun returns. The Front Man returns. Season 2 is coming’ said Dong-hyuk. The fictional drama from South Korea became the biggest ever series at launch for the company. 

Netflix had informed CNN that it was the platform’s first-ever Korean series to reach No.1 in the United States, attracting 1.65 billion hours of viewing in the 28 days following release. 

In the letter, Hwang said that it took 12 years to bring the first season of Squid Game to life last year. ‘But it took 12 days for Squid Game to become the most popular series ever.’

With the increase in demand and the millions made to be used for season 2, it certainly won’t take another 12 years to bring the show back. Fans are particularly interested in how the plot of the series will continue given its Hunger-Games-esque format.
