You can also up your game with the second edition of the signature Sarong Kebaya leggings, now styled with a figure-flattering mesh twist. Made with soft, anti-odour miSkin fabric, it’s a perfect piece of athleisure wear. Complete the look with the Enchanted X Sports Bra.

Approachable Couture
Fendi’s latest spring/ summer couture collection maintains the intricate beauty of couture traditions while remaining approachable and accessible. The pieces are light, lucid and easy to wear. There’s a move away from “costume”, which can feel confining, to embrace a softer, more yielding feeling in the clothing, allowing for more physical enjoyment for the wearer. Detachable winged sleeves feature in the collection, along with lingerie that’s designed as part of the overall style. Other highlights include reversible coats and versatile “apron” wrap skirts that can also be worn as stoles.
It’s All in the Details
August Berg has partnered with Morris & Co to exclusively launch the Strawberry Thief Petite collection. The release features five refined styles for women with distinctive details, from the watch dial to the strap. The highlight is the 26mm timepiece dial that comes in a silver and rose-gold colour palette for a subtle and delicate look. The classic Strawberry Thief motif, dating to 1883, features in three different colours. Available online and at select stores in Singapore.
