Graduated in 1998, Raffles Designer Alfie Leong launched his own label “MU”. While studying with Raffles Design Institute he won many awards for his designs such as Winner of Singapore Fashion Designer Contest in 1995, Winner of Smirnoff International Contest in 1997, and Winner of Home furnishing Fabric Fashion Design in 1998. In addition to these awards, Alfie also represented Singapore at various international fashion events like Smirnoff International Contest and Beijing Fashion Week. “Practicality and creativity are both important in my opinion of designing a fashion collection. A creative person must not feel that they have reached their highest level of achievement and be contented with what they have created as they will remain stagnant, never improve and will never be able to CREATE something new again.”
