The COLLECTORS

GEORGIA LEE

Georgia Lee’s eye for precision is all-encompassing. Over the course of her illustrious medical career, Lee, who is the founder of aesthetic and skincare practice TLC Lifestyle Clinic on Scotts Road, has become equally as lauded for her love for fashion. Reminiscing on the start of her journey, Lee shares: “I blame it on my meticulousness. Even as a young doctor, I made sure I wore something that made me feel and look good under my medical coat.”

Lee recalls making her first serious fashion purchase in the early 2000s after time spent focusing on her practice and family. A thoughtful foray into the world of collecting quickly led her into the realm of couture. Amassing a storied line-up of pieces from brands like Christian Lacroix and Chanel, she quickly became one to watch in the sartorial space and was a fixture at international fashion weeks and street-style platforms. With her statuesque physique, enviably elfin features and sleek, jet black hair, Lee undeniably makes a natural presence in the fashion world. Her wardrobe is all but an organic extension of that. “Couture is about the little details. Behind each piece are special and dedicated teams of artisans who make sure their designs fit my body. Despite my hectic work schedule, the brands ensure I make my fittings and I enjoy the process of watching the best working their craft,” she affirms.
