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

この問題で

Every year, T Singapore deliberates on the most impactful individuals for The Greats, our annual list of cover subjects who have left their indelible footprint in their respective fields. This year, we looked both at home and abroad for inspiration. Two of our covers feature Singaporean talents. Kumar is a comedian, drag queen and performer extraordinaire who has been entertaining and exciting audiences for nearly 30 years with his uniquely Singaporean brand of humour; while Taiwan-based, Singapore-born Tanya Chua is one of the country’s most well-loved and talented musicians whose career has finally come full circle. Elsewhere on our list, we look to neighbouring Malaysia to learn about entrepreneur and style icon Neelofa. Finally, we look at two Japanese icons who have had a deep and profound impact on our collective aesthetic, whether we realise it or not: Yohji Yamamoto and Tadao Ando.
