SINGAPORE (April 29): These fashion accessories will turn an ordinary ensemble into something special.
Hot chocolate
Already own a Breguet timepiece? Need a special touch to complete the look? Breguet’s Rotor cufflinks in 18-carat pink gold and chocolate enamel with a mesmerising oscillating weight and fluted caseband is your answer.
Sneaker fever
Sneakers are now a familiar sight at red carpet events. Ermenegildo Zegna’s Tiziano low-top sneakers feature the lateral Pelle Tessuta Crociera band on white or dark brown smooth calfskin along with an extra-light white rubber sole and triple hand-stitched design on the heel tab.
Eye-catching design
Cartier’s versatile sunglasses have a golden finish and a removable calfskin lapel located on the bridge. Take a closer look and you will notice that the frame is adorned with the multiple screw elements of the Santos de Cartier watch case.
Fun in the sun
Get ready guys, the holiday season is just around the corner. This June, enjoy the sun, sea and sand in Ermenegildo Zegna swim trunks that feature hand-painted watercolour Italian landscapes and cruise-inspired drawings or fish prints.
Power pack
Brunello Cucinelli’s nylon bag with leather details is ideal for a short business trip or when you need to stash your daily essentials for the gym.
Scent of a man
Ermenegildo Zegna and The Estée Lauder Companies have launched a bespoke fragrance — The Ermenegildo Zegna Essenze Eau de Parfum collection. Take your pick from five special scents: Mediterranean Neroli, Indonesian Oud, Madras Cardamom, Florentine Iris and Italian Bergamot.
Poppy power
Instead of using a pocket square for your suit, try something different. How about a brooch? The Elsa Peretti Amapola (Amapola is Spanish for poppy) brooch by Tiffany & Co in 18k gold with red silk will make a lovely fashion statement.
Warm and comfortable
You may not need a sweater when walking around Singapore, but you will need one when the office airconditioning gets a little too cold.
Forget about old man cardigans and try the trendy ones by Brunello Cucinelli. We love this one with a graphic design at the bottom and on the sleeves. Brown buttons complete the look.
Personalise your style
Belts are often a forgotten accessory. But you would definitely stand out with Tardini’s Royal Tiger belt in satin-finish American alligator with a rectangular buckle that features a diamante tiger jewel. Pair it with everything from formal trousers to jeans. These belts can also be custom-made according to your preferences at Uomo.
Wrist appeal
Chaumet’s Liens Évidence bracelets have been given a playful look. They are in pink or white gold with a hint of colour such as red, green or blue lacquer. Wear it on its own or stack them up.
Travel smart
Find yourself in a different city every other week? You need a reliable companion such as the Montblanc x Pirelli luggage. Montblanc and Pirelli have come together to launch a range of lightweight trolley bags with high-performance ball-bearing wheels and precision handle bars.
