Oh yes. The wait is over. The Singapore Fashion Festival 2008 kicked start yesterday night with Matthew Williamson‘s Spring 2008 ready-to-wear collection. Unfortunately, Fash-E wasn’t there to report you with first-hand photos and scoops or rub shoulders with the who’s who in Singapore’s fashion industry. No worries, we got these photos fresh off AsiaOne.com and we’re totally crediting their hardwork (Lucky for some!). Here we go:
Bohemian MagicErin Conner, face of this year’s SFF strutted down the runway in a relaxed gipsy-like dress. They don’t call Matthew Williamson, “The King of Boho” for nothing. I absolutely dig the idea of tie-dyed scarve tied around the neck for the spring look. Definitely something that you can D-I-Y and make it work for the everyday look.
Ruffles. Ethnic Prints. Combat Shorts.Women’s Wear Daily said that his collection is inspired by “an English rose who’s decided to ramble around the world”. I couldn’t have describe it better. I love the ruffles, Indonesian batik prints and chiffon combat-shorts. And, the laced-up heels! Yum. Doesn’t Emma Pei looks ultra-sexy?
Electic ClashWho would have thought bright pink and brown gold undertone skirt clashes so well? How about stripes and tie-dyed colours? The chiffon top just speaks of spring, and it’s no wonder A-list stars such as Madonna, Keira Knightly, Sienna Miller and Gwyneth Paltrow are fans.
Black is BohemianBlack is Spring’s hottest colour, or so he says. The black maxi-long is ruffle-lovely! If you can notice, the waist of the maxi has African beading to add a lil’ eccentricity to it.
Flirty. Sexy. I heart all his cute flirty dresses! The colours, embroidery, global prints and the revival of cheesecloth are a celebration of feminity and timelessness.
Mysterious Airy FairyFinally. The urban-hippie look doesn’t end. I can’t make out the mysterious prints of feathers, or animal spots or floral. The airy fairy ruffles are exotically gorgeous. You know you want more, because I do.

I’m totally bananas over The Rachel Zoe Project – and yes, Season 2 premiered three weeks ago! I got myself a Season Pass on iTunes store (possibly the best online media store to date). I’ve seen two episodes so far and I’ve to say that I’m still hooked. I feel the adrenaline whenever I see stylish & creative people doing their best at work. I love people who are excellent at their jobs. Plus, you get some style tips here and there. If you want to see the behind-the-scenes of Rachel’s world, please catch this show – because I love it. I may be bias but I want to convert like the entire universe into Zoe fans. Let me tempt you with some stills from this season:
