SHENTONISTA

Celebrating the winners of the 2019 edition of Shentonista Of The Year—with a perfect day indoors.

“If I could make a lasting change in society, it’d be to narrow the inequality gap in Singapore.”

“I love the creative side of fashion, and my dream has always been to create beautiful silhouettes for women of all body sizes—this has always been my vision.”


“I never drink cold water, since I work in a field where taking care of my voice is such a priority.”

“Life is far less complicated than we make it out to be, so stop and count your blessings.”

Throughout this week, you’ve heard from Grace, Lisa and Sherlin in their own words; today, we’re bringing you a new perspective of our Shentonista Mothers from those who know them the best—their children and loved.

"When I made the decision to become a mum, I told myself that it was going to be the most important thing I was to embark upon, so I had to do it right, in my own way."


“The unknown parts of the parenthood journey can be so daunting, but it’s about realising that even when other people give you advice, you ultimately have to do things your way."


“When you’re young, you want to be like your mother. When you’re a teenager, you avoid trying to become your mother. But when you become older, you realise you are becoming your mother.”

“I’m in recruitment, and it’s always rewarding to help people get their dream jobs.”

“If I had an extra hour every day, I’d spend it writing or sketching.”

“I’m a sum of very different yet equally important identities, and they come out through my accents.”
