OBSESSIONS
1. Leather shoulder bag, $960, Kenzo
“A small yet roomy cross-body in a shade that’s spot on the new season’s highlighter hue trend is exactly my kind of thing to chase away the Monday blues.” HISYAM A RAHMAN, graphic designer
2. Leather boots, $2,990, Givenchy
“Clare Waight Keller’s slick rework of ’80s-style slouch boots will lend an arty edge to everything from over-the-knee skirts to my stash of skinny jeans.” SOFIA KIM, writer
3. Jersey bustier top, $2,250, and crepe twill pants, $1,390, Balenciaga
“My new inspiration for day-to-night dressing: this utterly modern pairing of a draped bustier in slime green and fluid, comfort-guaranteed tailoring.”
NOELLE LOH, editor-in-chief
4. Verpan for Prada plastic stool, $1,180, Prada “If you ask me, the most collectable items from the brand’s S/S ’19 show are the bubble chairs that the guests sat on – all re-editions of Danish design guru Verner Panton’s Inflatable Stool from the ’60s, and now ready for pre-order.”
IMRAN JALAL, fashion editor
5. Wild Monogram canvas and metal earrings, Louis Vuitton
“Logomania in discreet doses can channel anything from street to classic, while letting you put your own stamp on it.”
ANDREA SIM, digital content producer
6. Sesco, Korea (1953-1954) by Dave Heath, www.bulgergallery.com
“Heath was an underrated American photographer who served in the Korean War and had the knack of capturing its little, in-between moments succinctly. His latest retrospective – at Paris’ Le Bal gallery – closed recently, which only makes me want his print of a nameless soldier and his pensive mien even more.” KENG YANG SHUEN, fashion writer
