T Singapore: The New York Times Style Magazine - August 2020

In this issue

In our Men's Fashion issue, we explore not just men's style as it has evolved, but look at the figures in our arts scene that have shaped the artistic and cultural landscape in Singapore. Among the group of artists we profile include pioneers like master ceramist Iskandar Jalil, designer Theseus Chan and sculptor Kumari Nahappan as well as a new vanguard of young creatives and artisans who remain committed to their craft despite the difficulties they continually faced. On our cover, nine Singapore-based models wear the Fear of God for Zegna collection that embraces a new gender-free spirit while we examine the changing modelling scene in Singapore.
