he honest truth about how we
derived this month’s theme: we
wanted to be the first publication
in Singapore to showcase and
celebrate the Fall/Winter 2019
Bottega Veneta collection by
Daniel Lee. Considered the
fashion realm’s injection of fresh
air, it was only right to pair the
collection with Thailand’s rising
actress and style star Thanaerng
(that’s @thanaerngnin, 2.3M
followers, on Instagram). So little was known about Lee
last June when Kering declared that the young designer
was taking over as creative director of the house – now,
he’s one of fashion most buzzed about “new” design
stars with his knack for details and intriguing shapes.Carrying the “New Guards” theme through the book
was no mean feat – new generation creative and Palm
Angels founder, Francesco Ragazzi, gives us the
lowdown on his Moncler collection; in Portrait of the
New Artist and Ones to Watch, fashion writer Pameyla
Cambe throws the spotlight on the latest and coolest
designers, visual artists, musicians and photographers
to know now. You’ll also find an exclusive spread
featuring six contemporary artists who were enlisted
to funk up Louis Vuitton’s classic Capucines in totally
unexpected ways (dangling and interchangeable faux
fruits, anyone?). Last but not least, find out who the
hottest stars of now – Ezra Miller and Dua Lipa
included – are tapping for their edgy beauty looks, in
the beauty section’s New Faces story.Ian Lee
