Instagram Special: Singapore fashionistas to follow

These lookers — armed with excellent styling chops, access to the world’s runway capitals and occasionally a DSLR-wielding boyfriend — are the reason why Singapore’s fashion micro-blogging scene is hotter than ever.

The fashion stylist and recent founder of a company producing contemporary hijab styles nails modest fashion in tropical weather and the elaborate dinner date look.

@belluspuera

Co-founder of lobster bar Pince & Pints, Velda Tan has come a long way since her Love, Bonito days. She perpetuates our feed with wanderlust and hunger-inducing snaps, and Outfit of the Day (OOTD) reveals that make you want to go out on a date.

@dreachong

You might recognise this sweet-looking 22-year-old from The Click Network’s That F Word, but she’s a fashion blogger first and foremost. Her Instagram profile is an entirely consumable world of pseudo Parisian chic — both designed and endorsed by the long-legged beauty.

@girlwhocriedwolf

Founder of online label Feist Heist Guan Min, looks set to be the next ‘it girl’ with her tasteful party shots, sleek mugs, and grayscale sartorial and filter choices.

@kenny_depression

Kenny Lim’s Instagram profile is a little more angsty than most, but we expect no less from the co-owner of local streetwear label Depression. Lotsa black, white and irony, if you’re into that sorta thing.

@revasseur

If you’re feeling a little under the weather, 10 minutes on Gilda Su’s Instagram profile will set you right back on track. If we had to give it an abstract description, we’d say it’s like dreaming about playing football with a gang of unicorns. Clearly her rapidly ascending fashion label Revasseur (“daydream” in French) has something to do with it.

@tracyjoyphillips

Besides being your virtual press pass to fashion events islandwide, the club music lover is also an advocate for emerging designers and one of the ‘Asian influencers’ for David Beckham’s whisky label Haig Club. Her signature accessory: a casual topknot, which goes incredibly with all her edgy outfit choices.

@trishnarawr

Lovers of black, hats and structure will do well to follow the ‘chilli padi’ Trishna G., who treats her 5,000-strong fan base with a daily dose of wicked Singapore weather style.

@valerie_wang

This sharp-jawed doll proves you don’t need to fork out exorbitant sums of money to look chic. Wang advocates simple patterns, clean cuts and basic tees — perfect for the girly girl who still values comfort more than anything else.

@willamazing

 

Call her an underaged tai tai all you want — we know we have — but Willabelle Teo’s appeal sells. Don’t believe us? Check the number of followers on her Instagram — we know some Hollywood stars who have much, much less. And don’t tell us that picture doesn’t make you want to try on purple fur, just once.
