New flagship store
316 Joo Chiat Road, Singapore

In Good Company has opened a new flagship in Singapore's Joo Chiat, introducing a restored three-storey shophouse that signals a new chapter for the homegrown label. Conceived as more than a retail destination, the heritage space brings together fashion, hospitality and design through a slower, more community-minded approach to shopping. Anchoring the ground floor is MIURA, a Japanese tea and wagashi concept by the team behind Paaru, while a curated selection of homewares, beauty, design objects and artisanal goods from regional collaborators extends the brand's vision of intentional living.

Pillar Fourth Anniversary
Pillar x Studio Jeje and Christin Wu’s: The First Bloom

Just last month, Indonesian retailer Pillar celebrated its fourth anniversary with The First Bloom, a special collaboration with beloved local brands Studio Jeje and Christin Wu. Inspired by Studio Jeje's reinterpretation of classic Indonesian womenswear silhouettes, the collection translates the label's signature artistry into ready-to-wear pieces, pairing lighter fabrics, softened volumes and a versatile colour palette with the intricate handwork and embellishment the brand is known for. Extending the collaboration beyond apparel, longtime creative partner Christin Wu reimagines her signature square-toe flats through Studio Jeje's delicate beading, available in velvety blush pink and raven black.

New capsule collection

Filipino footwear labels Ro and Alexie collaborated on a four-piece capsule collection unveiled at Formed, a collective pop-up spotlighting the country's independent designers, makers and artists. Infused with a sense of whimsy, the collection reworks familiar silhouettes through playful forms and unexpected proportions—from flat mule sandals with mismatched round and square toes to asymmetrical mules and ballet flats punctuated with polka-dot cut-outs.
