Known for her knack of putting unexpected pieces together, Cristina Cu's styling prowess breeds a new kind of cool

It only takes one look at Cristina's fashion choices for one to know that she thinks very carefully about each outfit she pulls together. She loves contemporary pieces that have an interesting twist. Always on the hunt for niche labels with innovative designs, she seeks brands and designers who consistently push the fashion envelope. Her ultimate favourites at the moment include Reformation, Realisation Par, Matter Makers from Thailand, Rachel Comey, Dion Lee, and Singapore brand In Good Company. “I love supporting local fashion as they have so much to offer, I go to Rajo Laurel, Rosanna Ocampo, Martin Bautista, Boom Sason, and Araw/Two Point by Carla Sison.” She considers people who are confident and at ease with themselves to be most stylish.
