Organised at 72-13@Mohd Sultan’s 2 storey warehouse, UT Pop-up Store was a vast an amazing experience that combined music with fashion. UT aims to bring awareness to budding musicians worldwide and have collaborated with NOISE Singapore to bring in the best talents in the scene on their stage such as guitarist Neil Chan.
NOISE Singapore’s various talented band members and vocals from 53A were out in full force to celebrate the event. Uniqlo Tees have upped the ant with collaborations with creative designers, the likes of pop stars such as Madonna, Kiss were portrayed in abstract art forms and printed on tees immortalised in impressive designs to boot. My favourite was Keith Harris’s tee designs with their well placed whimsical comic prints on pockets. The girls were spoilt for choice with a fine selection of Laduree macaroon tees and memorable Disney tshirts.
Standing as the centrepiece, a 3D cube of UT Tee shirts suspended in mid air an organised arrangement for all guests to admire:
NOISE Singapore bands enraptured the audience with their smooth pop renditions:
Japanese label Suit Select premieres its 3rd boutique in Chinatown Point with a tasteful selection of sharp suits. A fashion show allowed guests to admire suit ensembles on the runway with distinguished artistes such as singer Hunz and celebrated Vj Utt strutted down the runway in swagger “Mad Men” style. Suits were tailored to cater for both the silhouette of men and women.
A gathering of local artistes who have debuted in the recent hit movie “Ah Boys to Men” and acclaimed movie director Jack Neo graced the event to lend thier star quotient. The Suit Select Management from Konaka Co., Ltd., celebrities along with Fly Entertainment founder Ms Irene Ang toasted with sake boxes to mark the important occasion.
The boutique had a clean layout with rows of neatly pressed suits identified by their patterns and tagged with prices easily identified by a customer. Service staff were attentive and all ready to dispense some recommendations on which shades of ties would go best with your shirt and jacket. I especially took interest in a subtly checked formal suit in charcoal which looked absolutely impeccable and unique. One could definitely wear a power suit from Suit Select to raise your confidence and presence in a meeting.
