MEN 'S FOLIO Singapore - October 2022

En este asunto

This October marks an important milestone as we celebrate our 25th anniversary! For the past 24 years, Men's Folio has been at the forefront of fashion as we left our indelible mark on the Singapore media and fashion scene. We embraced the ebb and flow of fashion since the moment Men's Folio started one fateful day in October and took on a spirit of boldness and verve over the years. That same energy and attitude allowed us to navigate the many years to come as we grew and established ourselves as the oldest homegrown men's fashion magazine.

While it is a joyous occasion, it is incredibly humbling as I reflect on the immeasurable amount of support, help and love Men's Folio has received from many of our advertisers, partners and freelancers over the years. With the rest of the Men's Folio team, namely Bryan Goh, Izwan Abdullah, Manfred Lu, Charmaine Tan and Lance Aeron, and myself, Asaph Low, we would like to extend our deepest appreciation to all of you! We would not have made it this far, and none of these would have been possible if not for the amount of trust and faith shown to us and the renewed vision of Men's Folio since 2018, supporting Asians. Asians became our North Star and continue to be. If we, as a homegrown title, do not lend these people a voice and a platform for their stories to be heard, then who will? It is apparent from the moment you pick up a copy of Men’s Folio and flip through the various sections Celebrities, personalities, creatives and freelancers share a common background and one that we are extremely proud to support.
