24 Hours with Fashion Designer Melinda Looi

During peak fashion seasons, I’ll be at the office or workshop sewing beads and producing accessories. At times, my kids will camp together with me. – Melinda Looi

The first thing I do before freshening up for the day is to switch on my mobile to check my messages. As a busy designer and a mother of four, I usually spend less than 10 minutes to get ready for work. My wardrobe is mostly a mix of collared shirts and trousers with pops of colour. I have sensitive skin, and so far, La Mer suits me best. I don’t need to blow or comb my hair as I usually never have the time to do so, and that’s one of the reasons why I have curly hair. Fun fact: I don’t have naturally curly hair. I perm it once a year!
