2. #SGFASHIONNOW

It's time to embrace local fashion with #SGFASHIONNOW, the Asian Civilisations Museum's first-ever display of contemporary Singapore fashion.

Partnering with LASALLE College of the Arts’ School of Fashion and the Textile and Fashion Federation (TaFF), this exhibition explores creative fashion design in Singapore through the lens of our cross-cultural Asian heritage.

Be wowed by pieces designed by eight practising local designers, including young prodigies from our next generation of fashion creatives, as students from LASALLE’s School of Fashion broaden your perspective on Singapore fashion in their role as curators for this unique exhibition.

Till December 19, 2021. Find out more here.

3. Modern Women of the Republic: Fashion and Change in China and Singapore

Speaking of fashion, here's another exhibition revolving around it: Modern Women of the Republic: Fashion and Change in China and Singapore.

Hosted by Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall, this exhibition uses fashion to explore how women's status, roles and lifestyles have changed since the 19th century.

The exhibition boasts close to 100 artefacts and photographs on display, including garments sourced from private collectors, along with Chinese women's clothing and accessories from both China and Singapore that span almost a hundred years.
