Esprit
Think classic chic - Audrey Hepburn, Jackie O and Grace Kelly - for Esprit's Fall/Winter Collection.
Buck the trend when it comes to proportions - go for narrow bottoms teamed with long tops or tunics and matched with mini-skirts and leggings. Lots of layering and wraparounds for a feminine sillhouette.
Also look for narrow trouser suits, tailored-down dresses, business-style suits and feminine camisoles this season in the Women's Collection as the label reinvents the fashion icons of the 40s and 50s.
What's more, the store Esprit Raffles City has moved to the second floor of the shopping centre, with a bigger store space spread over 1,090sqm!
Liz Claiborne
The designer may have breathed her last, but the name lives on.
Having just opened a spanking new store spanning just over 4,800 sqft at Raffles City, Liz Claiborne is ready to revamp its image as a luxury women's lifestyle brand. The new Fall/Winter 2007 Collection is targeted at a younger and more sophisticated clientele.
However, you can expect the same attention to detail and personal service that the label is known for. Also, check out its new range of leather handbags in purples, greens, grays and black.

In the late summer, two stars can be seen high up in the night's sky. They tell a tale of love between a young cowherd named Niulang and the youngest and most beautiful of seven fairy sisters, Zhinu.
Every day of the lunar calendar, these two lovers are forever separated. Zhinu sits on one bank, weaving sadly on her loom while Niulang sits on the other bank, tending to their young children. Only one fateful day- The seventh day of the seventh month- will a bridge of magpies appear to bring the two lovers back together.
To celebrate this romantic tale of the cowherd and the Weaving Maiden, which also happens to be the Chinese Valentine's Day on August 19 this year, Swiss watchmaker Swatch has launched its new Pair Watches one month earlier than its international release date in Singapore and Asia.
