Gift of Andrew Gn

This mini dress with sculpted shoulders is embellished with crystals, and pleated at the collar. It is printed with coral motifs in cream and coral colours. As a passionate collector of antiques and modern decorative arts, Andrew Gn’s interest in corals as ornamental art and a traded luxury commodity since the 16th century, is reflected in his fashion. The designer reinterprets his love for corals by partnering the Great Barrier Reef Foundation for his Spring/Summer 2022 collection. 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.
