The countdown to the highly anticipated J Spring Fashion Show on the world’s latest architectural wonder, Gardens by the Bay’s SKYWAY, on 5 March 2014 in Singapore has officially started.
The 128 metre long aerial walkway between two high tech Supertree structures is about to be turned into the most unconventional catwalk yet.
There is no surprise this sky high production is created by model and entrepreneur Jessica Minh Anh, who hosted the world’s highest fashion show on the Grand Canyon Skywalk at 4,000 feet above the Colorado River just a few months ago. J Spring Fashion Show 2014 is set to further redefine modern fashion show standards against the usual catwalks inside hotels, halls, gardens, and tents.
The highly anticipated J Spring Fashion Show will feature an exquisite combination of Haute Couture and Prêt-à-Porter collections from various countries. “You will see a brand new take on modern beauty, with clean cut silhouettes, a mesmerizing fusion of layers and colours, and special detailing” said Jessica Minh Anh. The young director of J Model Management has previously worked with designers such as British fashion leader Paul Costelloe, Japanese power house Yumi Katsura, Dutch celebrity designer Addy van den Krommnacker, and Taiwanese sensation Shiatzy Chen among many others.
Lebanese celebrity designer Ziad Nakad will return to Jessica’s phenomenal catwalk to premier his latest Haute Couture collection. The master of shapes, texture and colours is expected to dazzle the finale with an almost unattainable balance between elegance and boldness in his every design.
Besides the glamorous dresses, Jessica Minh Anh is bringing a menswear collection to her phenomenal catwalk for the very first time with the participation of British designer Mark Marengo. The London-born and Paris-raised talent is known for his signature sharp-cut tailoring and original designs. “The collection I am preparing for J Spring Fashion Show 2014 adds a contemporary twist to classic style. It’s elegant, chic and, fundamentally, wearable” said Mark Marengo.
To compliment Jessica’s extraordinary vision, Singapore’s No 1 Action Salon is designing exclusive architectural hairpieces while Japanese cosmetics brand Shu Uemura promises a flawless makeup look to perfection for the runway.
The models will be walking in front of exclusive guests, which include country ambassadors, ministers, international designers, company directors and the national and international press. The guests will enjoy a complete VIP experience starting with a red carpet entrance and SoloStep photo booth. Guests will then be seated at the Supertree Grove to enjoy a panoramic view of the entire catwalk on the OCBC Skyway before indulging themselves in artistically designed and freshly made cakes by The Patissier at the networking session. At the same time, the press conference will be held at Gardens by the Bay’s spectacular Waterview Room with an expansive view of Marina Bay waterfront.
