Prestige Singapore Magazine - July 2023

In this issue

There is never enough time, which incidentally waits for no one. This Fantasy edition, we challenge you to not just dream big, but act on it. The best role model is our cover personality, Nina Kaginda, who has an F&B pedigree that primed her for her grand entrance into the exciting world of beauty entrepreneurship. But it’s not just her we can learn from; seven society personalities, who are longtime champions of good causes ranging from social to environmental, tell us about what they fantasise about in their perfect world. Serial philanthropist Nizar Shariff, the founder of Free Food For All (FFFA); Ludovic du Plessis of Telmont Champagne; the extremely low-key but highly driven fashion designer Tory Burch; and acclaimed interior designer and lifestyle tastemaker Ken Yuktasevi of Parable Studio are also inspiring us with their brave, unconventional outlook. Whether it’s a new passion or purpose, we hope nothing’s going to stop you now.
