Gift of Andrew Gn

This two-buttoned suit in floral jacquard has a peak lapel and is worn with a sleeveless silk crepe blouse with lace collar and front panel. The ensemble reflects the designer, Andrew Gn’s savoir faire in textiles, tailoring and appreciation for nature and prints. Andrew Gn is one of Singapore’s most prolific fashion designers in history, achieving high levels of critical acclaim and industry success. He is the only Singaporean to be a constant feature of Paris Fashion Week since 1995. His creations are known for their elegant, feminine, maximalist aesthetics and are finely crafted, cross-cultural, and reflective of innovation in tradition in fashion. This work is part of his major gift back to Singapore.
