This jacket is designed by local designer Francis Cheong and was donated by local style connoisseur John De Souza. He also donated several other items to the National Museum of Singapore (NMS) in conjunction with a menswear donation drive organised by NMS and Style Magazine. Some of the items were displayed in the ‘Stylo Mylo: A Selection of Men’s Fashion in Singapore’ exhibition held at the museum in 2006, which showcased three decades of men’s fashion in Singapore.
