Distinguished by its androgynous style and monochrome and earthy palettes, this Malaysian-made unisex label has gone from strength to strength since it was founded in 2012, with runway shows and stockists around the world. Joe Chia, who was born in Malaysia’s Kelantan state and is a graduate of Singapore’s Raffles Design Institute, has a minimalist style that manages to be both classic and avant-garde, with silhouettes that are simultaneously relaxed and severe. The brand is stocked at Isetan The Japan Store, which also sells other local and international urbanwear brands.
