MEN 'S FOLIO Singapore - April 2023

In dieser Angelegenheit

The theme for Men’s Folio April 2023 issue is ‘Duality’; a theme best exemplified by Thai power couple and business partners JJ Krissanapoom and Thanaerng Kanyawee in Bottega Veneta and Bvlgari.

Throughout the pages of this issue, you will find a diverse range of stories that dives into duality’s complex — contradictory yet fascinating qualities. From examining the tension between tradition and modernity in a report on novel timepieces by Managing Editor, Asaph Low, to the intersection of masculinity and femininity with the Fendi Peekaboo ISeeU X Cross for the Spring/Summer '23 season by Associate Fashion Editor, Manfred Lu.

As we move on to the grooming pages, Beauty & Grooming Director, Bryan Goh showcases the art of duality in unorthodox ways of perceiving products — from using bar soaps the same way as one would scent the body with perfume to hair masks that locks in hydration just as skincare would. We have also left no stone unturned in our quest to uncover the various dimensions of duality, even through culture. Associate Digital & Lifestyle Editor, Charmaine Tan investigates the far reaches of design in an interview with the Singaporean participants of Milan Design Week.
