It had to happen - with so many official sponsors and official events, there are also official fringe events, all part of the Singapore Fashion Festival.
Rapunsale, a rooftop bazaar that happens twice a year, is now an official fringe event at the invitation of SFF.
This special SFF08 edition of Rapunsale on April 5 will keep to the usual off-beat & quirky style of previous Rapunsales but features a talk-of-the town fashion showcase cum bazaar with the hottest cult labels this season.
Rapunsale herself will also make an appearance for the very first time in a fairytale-like fashion showcase. Princes
from far & wide will try their best to woo Rapunsale from her ivory tower, offering her an array of stunning apparel to win her heart, mind & soul.
Get to see the fiery Brazilian flavour of Beijaflor, edgy and funky togs from Thailand's flourishing label De Veen, Fred Perry's unique street style, the uncluttered clean lines of Style: Nordic and coveted cult jeans from Bread & Butter.
The runway will be in the billboard opposite Loof, where the models will be traipsing within to give the audience a truly novel runway experience.
Other labels participating in this exclusive invite-only bazaar are celebrated local labels like Hansel & Nicholas, uber chic accessories label L'artichaut and Australian cult make-up brand ModelCo.
Goodie bags will be handed out to customers who spend $100 or more on purchases charged to their Citibank credit cards, limited to 500 bags.
In addition to the already exciting array of activities, winner of the President Young Talent award & Grand Prix award at the 2000 Nagoya International Design Competition - Jienshu - will feature his dreamy outdoor furniture on Loof's "patio".
Rapunsale happens on April 5, 4 - 10pm at LOOF (331 North Bridge Road #03-07 Odeon Towers Extension Rooftop, next to Bras Basah Complex).
Fashion show begins at 7.30pm, while bazaar happens from 4pm - 10pm.
