MUJI Re-inspire Exhibition – Muji Re- Opening at Plaza Singapura

Raffles Designers designs MUJI Re-inspire Exhibition 2023
Muji Re- Opening at Plaza Singapura

Raffles College of Higher Education would like to congratulate MUJI Singapore on the grand opening of the largest global flagship store in Southeast Asia on 22 November 2023.

MUJI Plaza Singapura Global Flagship Store is the biggest MUJI store in Singapore to date and a significant milestone for MUJI Singapore over the 20 years in Singapore. This expansive store, covering 38,000 square feet in the heart of the city, serves as the primary anchor to display the entire comprehensive product range (across concept, scale, and variety).

Within this flagship store, “Open MUJI” is a space for MUJI Singapore to partner with local designers and creators to create exhibition and workshops, enabling MUJI Plaza Singapura to be a place for the community to exchange ideas, and for learning and education. Raffles College of Higher Education is honoured to be the FIRST education institution to present, “RE-Inspire” – the first sustainable exhibition of designs that use MUJI’s ageing and defective items in fashionable collections, jewellery accessories, lights, art installation, etc in a Zen garden.
Inspired by the comma, a mark symbolising a slight pause in the fast-paced lifestyle and representing MUJI’s appreciation of the eco-conscious practice of prolonging the shelf life of products via creative repurposing.
A RE-inspiring sustainable exhibition, and a successful collaboration by Design!

Singapore Fashion Council (SFC) x Earthshot Prize Fashion Exhibition 2023

Raffles Fashion Designer Aurelia CARISSA displays her Sustainable Fashion Design
at Singapore Fashion Council x Earthshot Prize Fashion Exhibition 2023

Raffles College of Higher Education is proud to have Raffles Fashion Designer Aurelia CARISSA showcasing her sustainable fashion design entitled “Protect and Restore Nature” at the Singapore Fashion Council x Earthshot Prize Fashion Exhibition 2023! In collaboration with Singapore Fashion Council (SFC), The Earthshot Prize Green Carpet featured a thought-provoking fashion exhibition that guests could explore.

Protect and Restore Nature
“Football jerseys, adored by fans and athletes, inflict a staggering environmental toll. Their production is an excessive drain on resources, fueling water contamination and energy overuse, intensifying carbon emissions and climate strife. As players and sponsors shift, the cycle of jersey updates ensures, urging countless football enthusiasts to refresh their wardrobe with new editions, relegating old jerseys to obscurity and eventual disposal. In response to this environmental crisis, my design emerges — a resplendent, floor-length gown fashioned exclusively from donated past-season football jerseys. A vivid testament to transformation, it symoolizes fashion’s power to renew and invigorate our commitment to a sustainable future.’ – Raffles Fashion Designer Aurelia CARISSA

The Earthshot Prize is a climate initiative by His Royal Highness, Prince William and this year it is held in Singapore. The Earthshot Prize was launched by Prince William in 2020 to search for and scale the most innovative solutions to the world’s greatest environmental challenges. The challenge to the world is based on five Earthshots and they are Protect and Restore Nature; Clean our Air; Revive our Oceans; Build a Waste-Free World; and Fix our Climate. HRH Prince William was in Singapore to grace the Prize Ceremony and to visit the various eco-initiatives and the Singapore Fashion Council x Earthshot Prize Fashion Exhibition 2023 at Mediacorp. In partnership with Temasek Trust, Temasek, GenZero and Conservation International, The Earthshot Prize will be in Singapore this November for a week-long celebration of innovation and impact.
