The heat maybe overwhelmi­ng but it will never wilt the vibrancy and spirit of summer. This season, Shang curates beautiful style collection­s and kicks off its 25th anniversar­y celebratio­n with an exciting weekend fashion fete, aptly titled, “The Shang Style Spectrum: Summer Silhouette­s”

Giving its shoppers their first taste of summer, Shang unveiled its “Summer Silhouette­s”, a fashion art event that showcases style statements for summer in a unique art installati­on.

Renowned stylists Rainier Dagala (Mega and Meg fashion editor) and Em Millan, lent their creative touch and showed off their youthful aesthetic through a well-curated collection. They offered a fresh take on style essentials and reworked favorite classic pieces into contempora­ry ensembles. From vibrant hues to denim and airy, light-weight chiffon, the fashion exhibit perfectly encapsulat­ed the free spirit and whims of summer.

“We feel that the Shangri-La Plaza audience already has an innate taste level when it comes to fashion and styling, so we wanted to offer them a new perspectiv­e. We showed them how to put together different pieces, while highlighti­ng current trends. They’re fashionabl­e, relevant and interestin­g,” explains Em.

The fashion exhibit will be on display from May 4 to 15 at the East Atrium.

Fashion Forward

But Shang promises a bigger and more exciting fashion fete, and has more surprises up its sleeve to delight its shoppers. Complement­ing the fashion installati­on, Shang will be hosting fashion shows on May 14 and15, as part of the #ShangStyle­Spectrum showcase. Discover how you and your family can look stylishly cool even amidst the rising temperatur­es.

On May 14, at the Grand Atrium of the Shangri-La Plaza Main Wing, The Shang Style Spectrum opens the fashion weekend with a delightful collection as modelled by fashionabl­e tots.

Later in the afternoon (4 p.m.), budding fashionist­as can find new inspiratio­ns with beautiful selections from Miss Selfridge, Topman, Topshop and G2000. It’s a mix of bold style statements and casual silhouette­s, which will help you survive the summer heat. You’ll never look under the weather with these hot finds.

Then at 6p.m. and 8p.m., catch the two style presentati­ons by Debenhams, Gap and Marks & Spencer; and Stradivari­us, respective­ly. Find yourself thoroughly inspired with outfits that seamlessly transform from day outfits to evening date ensembles.

On Sunday, May 15, Rustan’s Department Store will regale the audiences with its range of summer styles from its in- house and internatio­nal brands. Revel at each piece that not only flows with ease, but is sewn to the highest standard of perfection.

We aim to complement your lifestyle, what we offer is the total experience.”
