Have you heard? Keepers: Singapore Designer Collective has opened a pop-up shop at the departure hall of Changi Airport Terminal 1.
Now you can get decent and souvenirs from Singapore that's not a refrigerator magnet, a Merlion-shaped chocolate or, for heaven's sake, a "Singapore Is A Fine City" T-shirt.
Keepers is a collective of tasteful Singaporean designers has been on a rise since it first had a pop-up show at the Georgetown Festival in Penang a few years ago, where it dressed up a shophouse and turned it into a chic and buzz-worthy fashion stopover.
A pop-up boutique along Orchard Road quicky followed after that (and is still around).
So what's there to buy?
For those who still have space inside their carry-on luggages, we recommend these.
– Jewellery pieces from Carrie K’s “Nut & Bolt” collection, Marilyn Tan’s “Infinity Knot” collection, and by Saught
– Leather goods by Lingwu (they're hot in Korea), Extreme Exotic and Gnome & Bow
– Scented candles hand-poured by A Dose of Something
– Porcelain plates in blue and white by Supermama
