SINGAPORE - Third day at Audi Fashion Festival 2013 brought a lot of exciting shows: Audi Star Creation, ZARDOZE Panthea, Tsumori Chisato, and GISELLABLU and Aurora Wild Showcase.

Our favourite Japanese designer Tsumori Chisato showed an eclectic collection featuring water motifs, bright colours and funky accessories. Another show that caught our attention was Audi Star Creation and its 2012 winners: Soravit Kaewkamon and Ko Youngji. Both young designers presented very distinctive and bold capsule collections. They certainly have a bright future ahead!
