As fans of online shopping from home (or anywhere, really!), we’re excited about the launch of online marketplace OneOrchard.Store. Get ready for some serious armchair retail therapy…
The fashionable folks at TaFF (Textile and Fashion Federation) are rounding up Singapore’s home-grown contemporary designers and talent, and giving them a suave e-commerce platform to share their wares with us.
We checked out the growing list of designers featured on OneOrchard.Store across womenswear, childrenswear, menswear, accessories, home and lifestyle products, and we were well and truly spoilt for choice. Here’s a handful of Singapore talent that caught our eye!
Designer Fashion – AKOSÉE
We’re loving the free-spirited wearable creations of AKOSÉE – think resort-luxe with ready-to-wear pieces perfect for the Singapore climate. The brand has created a flattering collection, keeping best fit in mind, with pattern-making and sample sewing done locally.
Designer Fashion – Anna Rainn
Thanks to Anna Rainn, we’re sorted for officewear, Zoom calls and sundowners leading to dinner. The range here is curve-friendly, and primarily features classic wrap-dresses and tops in timeless prints. We also love that every dress sold contributes to an NGO that help girls living in slums in India gain access to education. A great way to pay it forward!
Designer Fashion – Bells & Birds
This dreamy nightwear range has us imagining moonlit whimsical gardens, balmy tropical meadows and the sound of nightingales. Be quick to click, though, as their chic and unique pieces – silk loungewear, sultry nightwear, sensual lace and limited-edition printed styles – are only made in small batches.
Designer Fashion – Weekend Sundries
This brand offers simple, classic and well-considered mainstays made for humid summers. The local textile and garment studio focuses on quality and timelessness, with a comfort that caters to a sustainable and conscious living.
Designer Fashion – ANS.EIN
If you’re looking for a conversation-starter, check out the wearable art range by ANS.EIN, founded by two art-loving mumpreneurs. The inspirational brushes of the duo’s favourite artists feature as patterns on pieces that can be worn in different ways.
Designer Fashion – GINLEE Studio
This brand brings us beautiful, thoughtfully designed mainstays for our wardrobe. We love how the 3D elements flatter many body types. Functional while not compromising on aesthetics, the pieces by GINLEE Studio are welcome to a space in our wardrobe any time.
Designer Handbags – Quintessential
This local brand has been around for 16 years and is best loved for its totes and clutches. We can totally imagine one of these gorgeous leather numbers accompanying us to the coffee shop or office. Presented in a range of designs and price points, the pieces are touted as “affordable luxury” – and we couldn’t agree more!
Nenä
Nenä has created an essential oil remedy bar and blending service to introduce its mindfully cultivated concoctions into our daily rituals. You can even customise your own blend and base, making this a perfect potion for self-giving or gifting.
Designer Skincare – Rooki
You are what you eat – and you are what you put on your skin! Skincare brand Rooki aims to bring clean beauty to our beauty regimes by whipping superfoods into products that are rich in antioxidants, vitamins and phytonutrients. This range may just be good enough to eat!
Ethical Designer – Hunter and Boo
Here’s an ethical baby and childrenswear label that weaves fresh nature-inspired prints with hints of Victorian and Japanese art. Stylish kids are well catered for with the softest 100 percent organic cotton with eco dyes, in an easy-to-wear collection.
