Grazia Singapore Magazine - May 2026

In this issue

There’s a first time for everything. Ours, this issue, is a solo male cover—and our cover star is “Apo” Nattawin Wattanagitiphat. Beneath the charm and wit is someone who is, in the best possible way, completely serious about his work. “When we understand ourselves, we can understand the character. I really want to understand myself deeply. And that’s why I became an actor,” he tells Associate Editor Cheryl Lai-Lim.
This issue is devoted to Art & Design. Fashion Writer Anika Deshmukh dives into why this is India’s defining moment in fashion. She also speaks to Chinese designer Liwen Liang, who has done something remarkable: taken the centuries-old craft of porcelain-making from his hometown of Jingdezhen and turned it into work that moves—literally and figuratively—on the body.
In jewellery, the conversation kept returning to art as well. The new Bvlgari high jewellery collection, Eclettica—Lucia Silvestri’s answer to Rome itself, all layered histories and unruly abundance, rendered in stone and gold. Editor-in-Chief Pakkee Tan spoke with Alexa Abitbol, Cartier’s Head of High Jewellery Workshops, about the weight of being the person who ensures that high jewellery—as an art, not merely a craft—doesn’t just survive, but deepens.
To close the issue, we turn our attention closer to home: a new generation of female artists who are redrawing what the visual landscape of this region looks like. What does it mean to really look at something? Not to glance, not to consume, but to sit with it long enough that it changes you slightly.
