This Week in Style: Korean fashion, fair trade jewelry and new denim hitting the shelves
Whether you need to update your wardrobe or add a bit more bling to your wrists, we've got your style inspiration sorted.
Fashion with Seoul
We know you’ve been secretly shopping for Korean stylings online. Now you can save on the shipping fees. Fast-fashion Korean label Headline Seoul is launching an e-commerce site in Singapore this month where you can pick up their premium Fall Holiday 2014 Collection full of aquatic-inspired patterns, wave-like swishes and lots of blue and monochrome color palettes. Prices start from $109 on their website.
Sustainable Style
A super-neat new Singapore online store stocks fair-trade jewelry made by artisans in the developing world. Anchora Collective is a multi-label boutique with items like the Tribal Lucite Necklace, a bold statement necklace made with recycled brass panels ($89) from Cambodia, and the Fangua Cuff, a hammered gold-toned chunky bracelet ($55) made in Kenya. Each item also comes with a short profile of the fair-trade artisan who made your piece. Shop online on their website.
Selvedge Your Wardrobe
We’re digging all the flannel and especially denim in UNIQLO‘s new Autumn/Winter styles. For men there’s selvedge denim which distresses over time to give an individual look and the Wind Proof Slim Fit cut made in partnership with Japanese brand Kaihara. For women there are new Ultra Stretch jeans designed to keep tight all day without sagging (allegedly!). All jeans are priced from $49.90-$59.90, available from UNIQLO stores islandwide or thorugh their website.
