Feature: The CURRENCY

Academic pursuers in Singapore are more often than not distracted by the syllabus and workload bestowed upon them, so they tend to leave other aspects with a minor portion of attention. When we're in primary and secondary schools, we didn't have to bother ourselves with our school attire and hairstyle as school rules governed it. After foundation studies, most of us were pretty excited about gaining the precious liberty of wardrobe display in tertiary institutions. After all, every student is able to make his or her own fashion statement by their choice of outfit. It may render strong (or faint) hints of an idea of what the person is about, purely basing upon dress sense. Fashion instills a sense of identity that is unique to each of us.

Let's face it, campus life will be dull and uninspiring if everybody selects to dress with no sense. Ever held a vivid conversation with your clique peers over some passing person with a loud fashion style? With everyone performing distinct wardrobe decisions, you'll be assured of a dynamic and vibrant environment where people don, converse and breathe fashion.

So unless you're really solely interested in inscribing your name permanently on the Dean's List, there's actually another fun side to school life. Don't be backed down by peer pressure in class for there's a glamorous reason for you to do so now without worrying about your surrounding incessant mockery. There's a fashion squad on the prowl around tertiary institutions for interesting fashion and unique style!

Starting this year, The CURRENCY has successfully established an online presence with their official website showcasing the results of their fashion hunt around schools such as NTU, SMU and NUS. Keeping affairs simple and clean, the team seeks to offer nothing but pure inspiring lookbooks featuring students modelling their favourite fashion concepts. What this translates to is this: You may well be the next person featured to publicly impress your personal style definition. Give it a shot, your style might be one that others will desire and pick up.

Keep a look out for The CURRENCY. You may be the next tertiary fashion icon!
