IN THE SEA

The key to looking good on the beach? Opt for a picture-worthy one-piece or bikini that commands attention. Among our selections from PINKSALT—a boutique label renowned for its modern swimwear with unique digital prints—include the Sophie One Piece Paradise Blue boasting delightful floral prints and a waist cut-out, as well as the Roxy Two Piece Paradise Blue, comprising a chic bandeau top paired with flattering high-waist bottoms. Additionally, the head-turning Holi V-Cross Tie One Piece and Holi Halter Bikini Top and Bottom from KBLU Swim promise stunning photo opportunities against the beach backdrop. KBLU Swim is known for crafting luxury swim, active, and resort wear for women, with each collection embodying elegance, style and superior quality.

 

 

ON THE BEACH

For the scorching heat and humid conditions, a reliable, comfortable, and stylish dress is essential, whether you’re lounging on the beach or hopping between bars. YeoMama Batik, a vibrant batik apparel and lifestyle brand, presents stunning options, such as the eye-catching Heeran and captivating Ariana dresses. Meanwhile, Barehands, a Singapore label renowned for crafting high-quality pieces alongside small-producing communities, offers the perfect babydoll dress, ideal for pairing with open sandals. Alternatively, pick the Eloise Big Dress, featuring a flattering drop-waist silhouette and a feminine curved neckline for a more breezy silhouette.

 

 

THE PIÈCE DE RÉSISTANCE

Finally, to complete your ensemble, the right accessories are essential for tying everything together. Look no further than Binary Style, a print-focused lifestyle brand founded by twin designers Santhi and Sari Tunas, offering exquisite silk scarves inspired by Singapore’s unique history and diverse cultural mix, like the Winged Friends in the Foliage or the Tiong Bahru twill to complement your swimwear. On the other hand—GRAYE, a ready-to-wear unisex clothing brand—presents the most adorable transformable bucket hat made in collaboration with Tiong Bahru bakery, which takes inspiration from the croissant, to shield your head and hair from direct sunlight. Otherwise, opt for the Tsuno Bag—an oversized pick crafted sustainably using a zero-waste fabric cutting technique—that’s ideal for carrying your seaside essentials.
