MEN 'S FOLIO Singapore Magazine - September 2024

In this issue

September is not really a time to “Begin Again”, given the period of the year the month falls in, but that has not stopped us from naming the month’s theme as such. The reasoning behind this is obviously from a fashion standpoint, given Men’s Folio’s DNA; September marks the new fashion season, hence a very apt name for the issue. Of course, there are two sides of the coin to interpret “Begin Again” — optimistically or poignantly. To go again takes great effort, mentally, emotionally, creatively and even physically. If there is any consolation, the end of the year is just about in sight on the horizon, where almost everyone begins afresh again.

Freshen Up!

What exactly does \"clean\" smell like? Is it the scent of a new set of linen, or the herbaceous wafts of cut grass that lingers in the air? The answer lies in one's open interpretations of freshness. Anything goes: from from blossoming floral accords to an aquatic airiness that reads like a breath of fresh air.

Heavy Lidded

In the masculine world of grooming, the sport (or art) of decorating one's lids with darkened kohl has been practised amongst niche circles, reserved for only a few brave men willing to go - or draw - the lengths of a sharp winged liner. Given the past decade's adoration of the bare-is-best routines, the notion of lined eyes has been mostly cast away. However, as the return of the Indie Sleaze movement returns, confronting the pressing question cannot be put off any longer. Should the world be opening its eyes and waking up for the return of \"guyliner\"?
