In a nod to her love for her family, Ms Audrey Fang's brother Benjamin directed the hearse carrying his sister to drive by the floral shop their mother ran in Depot Lane.
Ms Fang kept the business alive after her mother died in 2019. The 39-year-old left her job as a design manager in a construction firm in 2022 to run the place full time.
"It was just something we wanted to do for her," Mr Fang told The Straits Times as he fought back tears.
The hearse left the family home in Petir Road for Mandai Crematorium at about 10.50am on April 29.
It was accompanied by more than 60 friends and relatives of the designer, who was killed while on a solo trip to Spain.
