j. MANIFESTO
MANIFESTO: 10 responses to ‘Manifesto for a Fashion Revolution’ is a digital zine I edited when I was country coordinator of the Fashion Revolution Singapore team. Published in conjunction with Fashion Revolution Week 2023 and funded by Fashion Revolution and the Laudes Foundation, MANIFESTO solidified a vision for a global fashion industry that conserves and restores the environment and values people over growth and profit. 

MANIFESTO features stories and interpretations of fashion that are atypical on mainstream fashion media platforms. These stories deviate from the conventional ways of perceiving fashion as hype or trendy must-haves; exploring instead how fashion is intertwined and interconnected with the planet and all human and non-human lives with love. This love, easy on some days and elusive on others, birthed thoughtful and fervent observations of the fashion system. It features ten stories of loved clothes, old clothes, new clothes, clothes as means to raise funds for mutual aid, clothes as mass manufactured products, and non-clothes that exist as artistic interpretations of material and tools for storytelling.

As part of Fashion Revolution Week 2023, the zine was launched on April 29 at ZERRIN’s pop-up space with a panel discussion on the making of the publication. The panel was joined by fellow contributors Aditi Shivaramakrishnan, Thammika Songkaeo and Esther Koh.
