CELO; THE CELOSIA DRESS

Inspired by the kebaya and qibao, this collection combines both cultural and contemporary elements for the 21st century woman. Boasting traditional silhouettes, adapted cultural motifs, old-world elegance and movement-focused fabrics, this line embodies functionality with an air of elegance reminiscent of yesteryear’s women.

The CELO dress was named after the Celosia Plume, plant popular in Chinese culture because of how they look like a phoenix's tail which is a symbol of luck. The sleeveless fitted silhouette drew inspiration from the Kebaya, with a Mandarin collar twist. Intricate laser cut motifs added were inspired by Peranakan tiles.

CELO was designed with -ai. Buttery Skin Fabric, which features four-way stretch, moisture-wicking capabilities, breathable and is machine-washable.
