Gift of Andrew Gn

This red dress features a high collar, puffy bishop sleeves, and a zipped opening at the chest. On this clean and classic silhouette, the lack of embellishments which Andrew Gn is known for, reveals his skills in tailoring. 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.
