SHENTONISTA

We’re halfway there—here are our top 50 Shentonistas of 2018.

“I have to dress professionally most of the time, but that works out for me because I’m not actually very adventurous style-wise.”

“I’m Thai, and my boyfriend’s Japanese—getting to know each other was a little difficult at first because he was super polite and reserved, but we got along fine.”

“A food that describes me is pizza—you can pick any toppings you want and it usually works, and I’m quite easygoing as a person.”

“I've made many silly mistakes along the way while starting up my own label, but I'm glad I made all the mistakes I did because I learnt so much from them.”

It’s all about feeling and looking good.


“I have a sweet tooth, and one food I really miss from home is halo-halo, which is essentially a Filipino version of ice kachang!”

“If I could time travel, I’d tell my younger self to grow some guts, stand up for myself, and live my own life unapologetically!”

Here they are: the top 100 candidates for our Shentonistas of the year.

“I hope our world in the future will be really inclusive and embracing of all differences.”

“Working for an organic skincare brand has made me much more aware of the chemicals that exist in our everyday products, and I’ve also cut down on the plastic products that I use in my daily life.”

"If I could only eat one thing for the rest of my life, it'd be traditional Cantonese soups—whether I’m hungover, having a bad day, or under the weather, I find that soup helps to purify and revive my soul."
