In this issue

A gentleman who immerses himself in art develops a heightened sensitivity to beauty, proportion and harmony, which extends beyond the confines of galleries and concert halls into all aspects of his life, right down to the accoutrements and garments with which he chooses to adorn himself and this, our first fashion issue for the year, has those in spades.
Louis Vuitton heralds a “new formal” for its Prêt-à-Porter Homme FW24 (p. 26), and our indomitable Kelly Lewi has digested and parsed everything this season in her insightful Trend Report (p. 34). Heritage Italian brand Loro Piana has embraced the culture of the Rising Sun to great aplomb (p. 40) and our SS24 Fashion Spread (p. 46) ties all these elements together in a grand tapestry of aesthetic masculinity. Topping off fashion, we interview Singapore’s very own fashion icon, Desmond Tan (p. 70) — he’s equal parts actor and fashionista, but it appears he might have missed his calling as a connector of the people.
Accessories abound, serving as a conduit for cultural exchange and dialogue, transcending boundaries of language and geography: This season, timepieces and jewellery express facets of their collaborative partners like in the case of Hublot with Depeche Mode (p. 82) or Tissot with Damian Lillard (p. 86), or even as a reflection of its time as with the Piaget Polo 79 (p. 84).
We spoke to Art SG’s Magnus Renfrew (p. 102) and UBS’s Art Advisor Carola Wiese (p. 104) during its second edition, witnessing Singapore’s primacy on the SEA art scene as we begin to supplant Hong Kong.
