Our favourite online shopping stores in Singapore and beyond
Fashion
1. Zerrin
If you love support local brands in Singapore, then you are probably already well aware of our love affair with Zerrin, founded by Susannah Jaffer. Showcasing multiple brands on this online platform, choose from a range of fashion and accessories from local and sustainable brands that treat their creators with the respect they deserve. Not a sweat shop in sight on this site.
2. Rawbought
Soft linen blends, washable silks, and the comfiest, chicest loungewear on the market. You’ll find all of this and more online at Rawbought, a homegrown brand created by three beautiful sisters right here in Singapore. We love dressing the whole family in matching pyjamas, and these are hands-down our favourites – it’s not often you hear the kids complaining just because it’s washing day for their pj’s (true story!)
3. Maisha Concept
Maisha means ‘giving life’ in Swahili, and Maisha Concept is certainly doing that to our wardrobes! This gorgeous, slow fashion label is meticulously handcrafted by artisans and showcases African and Indian inspired designs. The fabrics are block printed by hand, and have become a popular choice among the fashionable set in Singapore not only for their beauty but also for their light-weight, breathable comfort. Think airy, whimsical yet practical dresses, wrap pants, and stylish linen short and shirt sets.
4. Closet Lover
The Closet Lover, also affectionately known as TCL, is a fashion brand founded in Singapore by sister duo Brianna and Bertilla Wong. Chic, cute, and effortlessly stylish, the brand offers timeless silhouettes in a beautiful fusion of practicality and on-trend fashion. Keep a look out for seasonal sales, and fun collabs with other labels like Mongabong.
5. Summery the Label
Ethically made, breathable fabrics perfect for our Singapore climate, without compromising on timeless style. Local brand Summery The Label’s chic, modern designs are ‘inspired by the natural world and the freedom of travel.’ This is our go-to online store for wardrobe essentials in simple, comfortable yet chic silhouettes perfect for every day (and no stretchy activewear in sight!). We are huge fans of the Classic Linen Knit Tees, and have one in every colour. Everything on the site is made from luxurious, medium-weight linen which softens with each wash. Best bit: All of Summery the Label’s garments are designed to be trans-seasonal, and can easily be worn from day to night.
6. Maison Q
Gorgeous local brand Maison Q has been our go-to for Chinese New Year matching family fits for years, but the adorable prints can be worn all year round. Founder and Creative Director Su intends to create beautiful yet practical clothes that kids can play easily in, while also looking adorable. Best bit: Many of the items at Maison Q are reversible, meaning you get two outfits in one with each shirt or dress you buy!
7. Next
Staples that wash well and won’t break the bank? Head online to Next. This favoured British retailer rarely lets us down, and carries their own homebrand as well as other brands like Converse, Boden, Reiss (a fave of Princess Catherine!) and more. Pssst… This is also one of our faves for Christmas matching family shopping, and home decor!
8. Zalora
As one of our go-to’s for online shopping in Singapore, Zalora is always worth a virtual window shop. Take a timeout to browse threads from brands like the Gap, Mango, Roses and Rhinos and more. They’ve even got kids’ apparel at really reasonable prices… best get to it!
9. Uniqlo
When we need to get affordable basics or the kids’ T-shirts with Marvel prints, we always check out Uniqlo! And although there’s physical stores aplenty dotted around the island, if you don’t fancy venturing off the couch, you don’t need to. Peruse at your leisure online and choose to self-collect at a POPStation near you!
10. Zara
Looking for new sweatpants to lounge in while working at home or new threads for the rest of the family? Check out Zara’s range of must-have essentials and comfortable clothing!
