CNY 2026: What local personalities wore to celebrate the festivities

If we’re completely honest, half the fun of the Lunar New Year festivities comes from OOTD-watching. Every year brings an unspoken challenge to take centuries of cultural heritage and somehow make it look effortlessly modern.

This year, our local celebrities, socialites, and stylish personalities completely understood the assignment. We noticed sharp tailoring, muted palettes with sudden bursts of colour, and beautiful fabrics that do all the talking. Keep scrolling to see some of the festive looks we spotted during this Chinese New Year season.
