Marc Jacobs's with Waterford
Jacob’s first collection of crystal wine glasses and fine bone china were flying off the shelves right after their launch at Selfridges in London. The highly-positive reaction came as no surprise, as the crystal stemware, giftware and fine china are crafted in the finest and most luxurious materials. Designs within the collection are named after Jacob’s closest friends, bringing special meaning to each exquisitely-designed piece.
Prices start at S$43 for a wine glass, and can be ordered online at www.amazon.com. Shipping to Singapore is available.
Jean-Paul Gaultier with Furniture House Roche Bobois
The individual pieces in Gaultier’s interior design collection maintain the consistent themes of his well-recognized trademark blue and white sailor stripes and blue and white check mariner patterns. One of the most popular pieces in the collection is the Mah Jong Couture modular sofa, with unique hand-made padded cushions and straight and corner backrests, priced at S$40,000 for nine elements.
