bedlamite is a new local menswear label founded by designer Terry Yeo, of ForInSaneHuman.
Whilst a plethora of typically safe generic menswear floods the market with basic shirts, trousers, t-shirts and jeans, the more fashion geared brands are higly priced and unattainable for most. Terry spotted a gap for unique and unusual pieces, at a time where Singaporean men are more willing to explore fashion options. With bedlamite, Terry hopes to bridge this divide and bring fashion geared pieces to everyone out there.
This label will create a grey line between what is normal and what is considered “freak-ish” to all of us. Bedlamite will explore the traditional concept of clothing and experiment how to reform it, pushing each seam to its limits. Making what is otherwise a normal cutting to something twisted, could in its way expose the abnormalities of the world for all to see and judge, thus making us question; what is normal for all of us?
Check out the fun s/s10 collection from bedlamite @ Next Next Parco Millenia Walk Level 2!
Look out for Zouk Presents WARDROBE 2010 with bedlamite and amuse!

I chanced by this great local design house sometime back when I first visited Parco Millenia Walk.
I was impressed by the unconventional designs they carry.
And they have friendly sales people.
Then I fell in love with their stuffs..
My only grouch is, they should have bigger sizes for their bottoms.. I truly dig those!
Maybe they should offer custom fit for me! Haha!
I bought an interesting top the first time i was there. I was blown away! And yes, I did stun people in school. But i though this was very me! Yay!
Check out Depression at its stores at Parco Millenia, Far East Plaza, as well as at Percentile!!

In case you forgot, the uber worthy Uniqlo +J collection has arrived on our shores and are being snapped up before you can say “What?”
Yes! The lush, pretty simple yet elegant designs that suits ever closet and style, easy to match, simple yet elegant luxe wear from Jil Sanders + Uniqlo collaboration is finally on our shores, at Uniqlo’s third branch in Singapore, and also known to be its largest flagship store here.
While I was there yesterday, the queues were maddening and confusing and irritatingly long, and I can’t help but almost shouted at people. But hey, the staff are nice and friendly, but the customers (read loud and arrogant, alright, AUNTIES), were horrible, snatching and flipping things like it was the market.. Bleah!
The 42.195km (comparatively la huh, incredibly long) long queue to the fitting rooms and cashiers were.. omg! and as with all Singaporeans who do not know what treasure is, all were flocking towards the cheap discounted jeans (which I also wanted but could find it in the right size, sadly) and sweaters.. (grab so many for what, this is Singapore leh, “winter” will be over soon lo.). But, also, like most typical Singaporeans with no taste not much of a fashion sense to speak of, the entire section of +J collection was almost left barren. What a pity. But all the better for me!!!
Posh, designer class blazers, sweatshirts, work tops and bottoms were all on display, with an air of elegance. These beautifully simple pieces in basic raw colours were going for less than S$200!! Wow wow wow!
But being a poor student, as much as I wish I can afford, but unfortunately, not at the moment. My bad debts are chasing me… Nono.. So, I shall wait.
Here I am sharing with you this awesome find, please do go take a look, but, don’t buy all ok! Leave a few pieces for me:)
On a sidenote, on the pre-opening night (after the Uniqlo From Tokyo to Singapore fashion show), truckloads of guest and journalists and VIPs were transported in buses from Ritz Carlton Millenia to 313@Somerset, and upon arrival, they all made a beeline for the +J Collection. (And guests and media were each given a $100 voucher.)
Damn! I was meant to be there. I just plain forgot. Thanks to my heavy workload. Alright. Gotta go do my assignment and continue dreaming about owning the gorgeous suit from +J!
(To take a peak at the collection, look at my previous post about the +J Collection, all pieces are available now!)
All the buzz going on with the two new shopping places opening up at our very own somerset front, I can’t help but give a full report on it.
With the mega Uniqlo making waves at 313@Somerset, and Y-3 and Bread and Butter making people coo at the revived, hip and happening Mandarin Gallery, I will just have to make my way down to check out what other great finds there are, any must buy or places that are must visit by cool dudes, and what things are new and worth checking out!
Next Monday, join me as we go uncover the brand new somerset stretch and what it has to offer.
