Raffles City Singapore ushers in Spring 2020 in the city with a series of Lunar New Year specials including an exciting collaboration with modern Chinese chic fashion label, Shanghai Tang. From today till 9 February, enjoy exclusives and promotions as you prepare for your New Year celebrations with Raffles City Singapore.
Share well-wishes of prosperity with the limited-edition Raffles City Singapore x Shanghai Tang red packets and red packet organiser available exclusively at Raffles City Singapore. Victoria Tang-Owen, Creative Director of Shanghai Tang, reimagines the brand’s iconic Ginger Flower motif in a vivid bouquet of colours this Lunar New Year, inspired by the two Chinese idioms, “花开富贵” and “大红大紫”.
Both idioms are well wishes commonly exchanged over the Lunar New Year and when translated, mean “prosperity comes when the flowers bloom” and “fame and tremendous success” respectively. This brilliant new Shanghai Tang print is featured on the commemorative red packet and red packet organiser designs.
Available from 10 January to 9 February, spend $128 (in a maximum of 3 same-day receipts) and take home a set of eight Raffles City Singapore x Shanghai Tang red packets in two designs, or spend $488 (in a maximum of 3 same-day receipts) and receive a limited-edition Raffles City Singapore x Shanghai Tang Red Packet Organiser designed in collaboration with Shanghai Tang. Terms and conditions apply.
Marking the first stop on its Asian city tour, Shanghai Tang is launching its first pop-up store at Raffles City Singapore, located at Level 1 Water Court, until 5 February. Shanghai Tang will be offering a complimentary embroidery service at the pop-up with each purchase of a polo t-shirt (price ranges between S$160 and S$260). Shoppers can choose from four different fonts and four coloursways as part of the embroidery personalisation service, making for an exquisite gift for themselves and loved ones.
Also making its debut at the Shanghai Tang pop-up is Victoria Tang-Owen’s first “Back to the Roots” collection, representing a new beginning while paying tribute to the origin of the brand as Shanghai Tang celebrates its 25th anniversary this year.
The new collection includes two versatile bags that will be launched at Raffles City Singapore from 10 till 24 January. The Chinoiserie Print two-way Crossbody Clutch ($375) and Chinoiserie Print Shopper Tote ($565) feature the ‘chinoiserie toile’ graphic designed to showcase Shanghai Tang’s heritage and acts as the starting point and key visual for the collection. The warm, earthy brick red and a touch of sumptuous patterned jacquard depicts a majestic and autumnal mood with notes of nostalgia. The versatile bags are also made in water-resistant fabric to keep belongings safe from drizzle and accidental coffee spills.
