Gift of Andrew Gn
This mini dress features an oversized collar in guipure lace and buttons hand-made from jewels. It comes from Andrew Gn’s Spring 2021 ‘May There Be Light’ collection with which he hoped to channel joy, pleasure, and optimism during the Covid-19 lockdown. 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.
