TAG TEAM
Local visual artist Rizibe puts his spin on the interior of Rimowa’s latest Singaporeexclusive capsule collection.
TRAVEL IN STYLE
Home-grown label Ong Shunmugam has teamed up with German luggage brand Rimowa in a fashion-forward, Singapore-exclusive capsule collection of cabin cases. Featuring six designs that represent China, Indonesia, India, Japan, Malaysia and Mongolia, the trunks also have an interior lined with matching fabric printed with illustrations by local visual artist Rizibe. To keep the exclusivity, there will be only three cabin cases per design. Available next month. #01-11 Mandarin Gallery. Tel: 6735-2051.
A MARQUE AHEAD
Carmakers have been rolling out travel bags to match their machines for a while now, but French luxury automobile manufacturer Bugatti is taking it one step further by creating a carry-on with Italian fashion house Giorgio Armani. The nifty weekend bag is perfectly sized to hold travel essentials for a quick getaway in the coupe. Available in calfskin and crocodile skin. #B1-29/30 The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands. Tel: 6304-1330.
THE NEXT CHAPTER
Revamping an icon can be a tricky affair, especially when said icon is the beloved Louis Vuitton rolling trunk. Trust Australian industrial designer Marc Newson, one of Time magazine’s most influential people in 2005, to inject a breath of fresh air into the luxury house’s new range. Globetrotters will be pleased to know that the four-wheeled trunks are 15 per cent more spacious than similarly sized trunks. Besides the classic monogrammed and Damier prints, you can also pick from seven colours in Epi leather. #02-14 Ion Orchard. Tel: 6788-3888.
