A Uniform Look

Launching with a capsule collection inspired by uniforms, Singapore label Vetyver is taking the overlooked to the fore.

Singapore designer Firdaus Aris wants to put the focus on things that are so vital, yet taken for granted. And he’s doing just that with Vetyver’s first collection, starting with: the uniform.

Titled “Un-form”, the local label’s debut capsule launches December 2019 in a pop-up at Grafunkt’s Funan Mall store. The collection features structured silhouettes and a monochromatic palette – a nod to the uniforms that played a big part in Firdaus’ life, including his own ones from school and the jumpsuit that his engineer father wore to work every day.

He says: “They are commonly overlooked objects that hold quality and function in one.”
