Singapore

We're in Singapore at the moment for a short break, catch up with friends and a little inspiration time.

The fabric shopping is just amazing all along Arab street, the most beautiful fabrics from around the world.

Today we went to the national museum of Singapore which is an incredible epic space using the original colonial style building bridged with an ultra modern space housing the history of Singapore.



The exhibition design rivals the V&A and New York galleries just a little smaller with maybe not such exquisite examples but equal in style.

This was the fashion section documenting the Western fashion trends Dior to Andy Warhol from the 1950s and the influence on the multi cultured women's fashion in Singapore.
