Imagine appreciating art in forms beyond the canvas… that\u2019s exactly what the founders of Ans.ein set out to do. Anseina (Ans) and Erlyn (Ein) have used the best of their design and retail business backgrounds to bring you wearable art. We\u2019re fans of the fabric prints and the iconic brush-stroke designs in the splash and blooms collection which you can find in the form of kimono and maxi dresses, jumpsuits, cardigans, multiway tops and pencil skirts.

There are plenty of menswear stores<\/a> around shelling out the same, heritage-inspired threads. But Benjamin Barker is a cut above the rest.

Okay, we know this isn’t clothing. But we can’t resist adding By Invite Only into this round-up. Its line of minimalist jewellery<\/a> goes perfectly with everything<\/em>, and we’re not exaggerating. If you’re building your capsule wardrobe<\/a>, its earrings and necklaces are must-have essentials. We’ve got the gold wynn ear cuffs on rotation.
\nBy Invite Only<\/a>, multiple locations including Vivocity and Ion Orchard; also available online<\/em><\/p>\n

Finding fashionable menswear in Singapore isn’t the easiest thing to do. If you’re tired of the usual Uniqlo t-shirt and shorts get-up, turn to Duxton for stylish ‘fits. The clothing offerings aren’t only timeless \u2013 they’re lightweight enough to withstand our country’s perennial summer. We’re eyeing that shadow palm shirt!

Yes, batik prints<\/a> can be modern and cool. Thanks to Elnadyah, we’re seeing more of these traditional prints beyond resortwear and travels; they’re paired with everyday casual looks. We\u2019re fans of the wrap-pegged pants that go beyond batik prints and detachable skirts \u2013 you can wear them over a pair of pants. Or add minor touches with batik print chokers and head wraps.

What started out as a menswear label has now expanded to androgynous pieces that scream zen. The homegrown label takes a page out of Japanese minimalist fashion. Think bucket hats (our personal fave!), kimono jackets, as well as cupro and lyocell tees in muted colours like burnt orange, charcoal grey, mocha and sage green.

We love a local label that bucks the trend instead of setting it. Designers Kane Tan and Sven Tan (of alldressedup fame)\u2019s strategy is a clever one. They forgo the typical seasonal dictates of fashion and focus on creating capsule collections of wardrobe essentials that every woman needs. The brand’s aesthetic of sophisticated and classic silhouettes is tailored to Singapore\u2019s weather. We can never resist snagging a creation or two!

\"Rye

Rye is named after a grain, which should give you an idea about the brand\u2019s direction. The up-and-coming local fashion label in Singapore puts out capsule collections of timeless classics. Aesthetics-wise, the designs are best described as comfy chic: almost all the dresses, for instance, are roomy and come with an oversized fit.
\nRye<\/a>, multiple locations including Cluny Court and Joo Chiat; also available online<\/em><\/p>\n

26. Sabrina Goh<\/h3>\n

Minimal, conceptual, structural: it\u2019s easy to whittle down Sabrina Goh to just three little words. But make no mistake, it’s so much more than that. Drawing inspiration from architectural silhouettes, the local fashion label in Singapore offers strong, sensuous designs that constantly push the envelope. Check out the structured slip dresses with asymmetrical hems, boxy overcoats with textural details, and the perfect vermillion two-piece inspired by ancient rock formations in China.

27. Salient Label<\/h3>\n

Vibing modern silhouettes with understated designs and minimal hues? Salient Label is totally your scene. Yes, the collections heavily depend on black, navy and grey (with pops of more colourful hues). But the clever asymmetric cuttings, big-cuff hemlines, two-tone colour panel designs and draped details make all the difference. They’re also totally versatile for styling.
\nSalient Label<\/a>, stocked at Design Orchard; also available online<\/em><\/p>\n
