Maje

This season, Maje reminisces Le Palace of the 1980s—the golden era of the night club which played host to Grace Jones singing La vie en rose, Prince's first concert in France and more. Fun and whimsical, the collection features many party-ready pieces that will have you set for the holidays, like this Rileta sequin mini wrap dress.

The Rileta sequin mini dress is perfect for a count down party—it's glittery enough to shine through a Zoom party!

The leather pyramid bag, on the other hand, is a versatile accessory that can either complement a glamorous outfit or dress up a classic look as a statement piece.

"It'll complete my go-to black suit with a pair of ruby earrings," Tina said.

Available at Maje, 01-26, Raffles City.

Sandro

Sandro's fall-winter 2020 collection evokes the nostalgia of college days, mixing up preppy staples like patched blazers and V-neck cable knits with a grown-up wardrobe of classics like tweed blazers, pantsuits and men's shirts. This slouchy checked cardigan is given an unexpected glam factor with sequins that glisten as you move, while the mini bag makes for an understated yet trendy accessory.

I'm always on the lookout for versatile and timeless pieces like this checked cardigan and mini bag.

Above Quilted Velvet Vest with Braided Tassel Belt and Bamboo Silk Lining

Shanghai Tang

Bamboos are a key motif in Shanghai Tang's fall-winter 2020 collection, Time to Bloom. Created during these unusual times, the bamboo was selected for its resilience, blooming and thriving despite its harsh environment. The motifs are subtly emblazoned on the silk maxi wrap dress, gently shifting under the light with every movement. A shawl collar and rouleau loop buttons along the waist add to its regal charm—perfect for a formal dinner party.

For cooler days, the quilted velvet vest in royal blue can be styled both as a wrap dress or as a gilet over a lighter dress. The bamboo motifs adorn a bright fuchsia stretch silk lining, for a playful and unexpected pop of colour.

Available at Shanghai Tang, 01-27A, Raffles City.

Above Black Opium Eau de Parfum 50ml Limited Edition

YSL Beauty

Yves Saint Laurent’s most iconic fragrance comes boldly dressed in a glittering leopard print this holiday season. The cult oriental gourmand infuses the aroma of black coffee with the intoxicating scent of jasmine sambac and orange blossom absolute, with a creamy base of vanilla, patchouli, cedar and cashmere wood—a signature scent for the urban heroine that's hard to miss.

Every Christmas, Clinton picks a scent that he likes as a gift to me, and that scent will be my 'signature' scent for the rest of the year. I keep the bottles on display beside my dresser—looking at them makes me feel loved.

Above Gucci Flora Jewellery collection

Gucci

Originally conceived by Italian artist Vittorio Accornero and presented on a silk scarf for Princess Grace of Monaco in the 1960s, the Flora print remains one of Gucci's most mythic creations today. Presented on fine jewellery, the Flora's fleeting beauty is captured in the collection's dainty accessories. Diamond encrusted flowers are set on delicate gold or silver chains and rings, and accentuated with the House's GG logo in select pieces. The collection adds a touch of feminity to any look.

Available at Gucci, 01-37, Raffles City.
