ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE SINGAPORE FASHION AWARDS MEDIA ANNOUNCEMENT PARTY
Celebrating the hard work, dedication and immense creativity of Singapore labels were the hallmark of the recent Singapore Fashion Awards Media Announcement Party. Organized by Taff and supported by DesignSingapore Council, the 6th October event held at the National Design Centre featured 40 finalists from 11 categories, classified under three award segments – namely Design, Marketing and Contributor segments.
Fashion consultant and creative director, Daniel Boey engaged the audience with his charm and wit as he welcomed them and introduced Taff president, Mr Mark Lee who described the event as a way to “encourage designers to strive, press on and scale to greater heights of achievements.”
Stage and television actress Ms Janice Koh presented the Best Marketing Award whereas fashion editor and veteran stylist David Wang did the honour of unveiling the finalists for the Contributors Award.
The event culminated with the announcement of the finalists of the most coveted Emerging Designer of the Year and Designer of the Year Awards by Taff’s CEO Ms Lynette Lee. Models graced the walkway wearing pieces from the finalists.
What is particularly meaningful in this year’s Singapore Fashion Awards is working with a team of local photographers, models and stylists (#supportlocal) and having Jean Yong, the winner of The New Paper New Face 2017 as the model for Singapore Fashion Awards campaign shoot.
Congratulations once again to all the finalists of the Singapore Fashion Awards! Do look forward for the revealing of the winners at the tea gala on 24 November 2017, at W Singapore – Sentosa Cove.
