To the uninitiated, the Singaporean fashion brand An Asylum seemingly remains an enigma. Esoteric and understated in approach, the label prides itself on producing contemporary designs that reimagine traditional archetypes, seamlessly melding together a wide array of disciplines that include fashion, fine art, literature and even psychology. Best known for its considered approach and meticulous detailing, the brand’s debut collection was showcased at Stamford Arts Centre during Singapore Art Week 2021, placing its stamp on the local scene.
