Vogue’s picks of the best items to shop from your favourite Singaporean fashion brands

In recent years, there has been an increased appreciation for small, homegrown labels. These brands have redefined the local fashion scene through their use of innovative fabrics, unorthodox construction and unique silhouettes—albeit not compromising on craftsmanship and quality.

Thinking beyond the usual fare commonly witnessed in streetwear, many local brands offer a wide array of delectable ready-to-wear suitable for different styles and body types. For those in need of new outerwear, opt for Cherub’s Ariel jacket in a water-resilient nylon shell that will protect you from the temperamental weather here. The concealed side pockets and integrated cord system allows for the utility and convenience, design codes that are reflective of the ever-popular gorpcore trend. Fassbender & Mellon Collie’s use of natural dyes on vintags rags offers a different approach to upcycling used garments; a great way to promote sustainability while remaining stylish. And for everyday essentials, Veblen Supplies and Arcade clothing offer quality basics at a very modest price.

Lastly, on the accessories front, Denise Chong’s new selection of beaded necklaces and handbags offer timeless versatility while tapping into the trend of mermaidcore through aquamarine shades and butterfly pendants. The attention to detail and unparalleled craftsmanship further cements why she is already a favourite among local style mavens.

This national day, show your support for these creatives that are pushing boundaries and paving the way through their innovative designs. Below, Vogue Singapore’s spotlights some of the best items across these brands to shop now.
