The location: The collection was shot at Joo Chiat road. For the non-locals, this street is located in the East with multiple pubs, karaokes and hotels (the fourth shot has The Fragrance Hotel as the setting). The ambiance of the street is rather special, and second to none.

The collection: I was inspired by Jasmine Guinness and her love for wearing red lipstick. I wanted to use loads of red for this holiday collection and make dresses that women can wear from parties to parties. And of course, I included my signature umbrella skirt, named ‘the lantern’ right here.

If you are interested in any pieces, simply go to ‘Design Gallery‘ for more information.

Feel free to let me know about your opinions/thoughts, I would love to hear your comments.

    I love the Crimson and Sheer dress! Really pretty cut and the very old school chic. However, I think the Crimson dress should be more fitted in the waist to make the ruffles pop. Very pretty…

    maybe because z’s a size zero the dress was a little loose on her…

    but thanks anyway!
