Here are the standout accessories we're coveting from Hermes' spring/summer 2025 collection
Hermès has always had a flair for turning the ordinary into the utterly whimsical. A true master in the art of storytelling, the maison continues to prove that the magic is never just in the object itself—it's nestled in the subtle, often overlooked details. For spring/summer 2025, Hermès invites us to indulge in a refreshing assortment of accessories that balance heritage with a cheeky wink.
This season's runways served up a feast of sartorial play, with a noticeable shift toward lighter, breezier dressing. While the luxury brand's ready-to-wear leaned towards serene, tonal hues, the accessories came alive—bold, expressive, and impossible to ignore. After all, what's a summer look without its crowning touch?
For bags, the spotlight shines on textures and reinterpretations. Woven and raffia styles are undoubtedly having a major moment, with silhouettes inspired by traditional basketry making a modish return. A standout is the Birkin à l'envers—a playful twist on the iconic design. Flipped inside out, the signature hardware now peeks from the interior, subverting expectations while still staying true to the brand's DNA. There's also carryalls crafted from the classic denim, with structured pieces like the Birkin Cargo rendered in blue-jean charm. Accessories take the lead this season, completing every ensemble with a hit of colour and edge. Courtesy of Hermès
On foot, the offering spans from feminine to sporty chic. Think sculptural wedges crafted from supple nappa and smooth calfskin, dainty ballet flats in softer shades like pink, and even a laidback sneaker silhouette lush suede goatskin. This medley of styles also spans a range of heel heights—from grounded flats to heels—adding yet another layer of adaptability to the offering.
The delight doesn't stop there—headwear makes a cheery entrance with straw hats vibrantly hand-painted, while jewellery ranges from printed enamel paired with golden metal to rings, earrings, and cuffs in aluminium. Of course, no Hermès collection would be complete without its silk scarves—this time arriving in a kaleidoscope of illustrations, some finished with fringed leather edges evoking the brand's quintessential cowboy spirit.
In true Hermès fashion, this collection is yet another blend of thoughtful craftsmanship fused with a splash of imagination. So why not sprinkle a little magic onto your warm-weather wardrobe? Whether you're slipping on a striking pair of wedges or sporting a timeless carryall, these pieces are here to make summer feel like a storybook come to life.

K-pop and breakdance power South Korea's high-stakes presidential race
South Koreans head to the polls on June 3 after six months of political turmoil. PHOTO: AFP SEOUL – In South Korea's high-stakes presidential campaign, K-pop isn't just a cultural backdrop – it's a political strategy. Both major parties are leaning on Korean pop hits to energise voters, blending choreography and catchy lyrics with political messaging. Among the favorites at campaign rallies: Kim Jong-kook's Lovable and Young Tak's Next Door Oppa, are now fixtures in events across the country. But unlike the last US presidential election, where former vice-president Kamala Harris secured endorsements from Beyoncé and Taylor Swift, South Korean artists have shied away from direct campaigning, which risks alienating fans. The opposition Democratic Party has deployed a 48-member 'Shouting Korea' team, which travels nationwide in mobile units designed to create festive, street-level rallies. Their goal is to produce crowd-friendly events using choreography and classic Korean pop songs before and after the party nominee Lee Jae-myung takes the stage. The conservative People Power Party has taken a similar approach, with candidate Kim Moon-soo's campaign team choosing retro hits like Lovable, over songs by current idols. 'Kim's frequent use of heart gestures inspired us to highlight a 'lovable' image, playing on the song's message to enhance his public appeal,' Mr Kim Dong-hwan, a PPP campaign official, said. South Koreans head to the polls on June 3 after six months of political turmoil, hoping a new leader can begin to heal a fractured nation. The snap vote comes after impeached former President Yoon Suk Yeol was removed by the Constitutional Court in April for his abrupt decision to declare martial law. The state of the economy and fighting US President Donald Trump's tariffs are among the hot topics for voters, according to recent opinion surveys. Mr Lee had 49 per cent support while Mr Kim trailed with 36 per cent in a survey of 1,005 people commissioned by local media News 1 and released this week. 'This election follows a period of martial law and impeachment,' said Mr Kim Dae-young, a Democratic Party official. 'There were debates about including strong political messages, but we decided instead to build a space where people could gather naturally – through music, dance, and video.' The campaign's setlist draws heavily on late-1990s and early-2000s pop acts chosen for their energy and broad appeal. They include Koyote's Pure Love, from 1999, diva Uhm Jung-hwa's Festival from the same year. Professional dancer Yim Young-hwan, who was hired by the liberal party to join the campaign, has choreographed several of the performances. The dance routines are deliberately simple, with occasional flourishes to grab attention, and to make it easy for people to follow. 'We wanted people to say, 'Wow,' when they saw us,' Mr Yim said. Lyrics are often adapted to highlight the candidate's character or policy goals. And choosing older tracks instead of licensing new idol music from the big K-pop companies such as SM Entertainment and Hybe reduces costs, according to Mr Kim, the PPP campaign official. Licensing fees per song could reach around 3 million won (S$2,810) to tens of million won, depending on its popularity. While TV and radio still play a role, Mr Kim noted that digital content now dominates political engagement. Candidate Kim has appeared on major YouTube shows and launched a dedicated channel featuring a 13-song playlist to court online audiences. Yet despite the digital pivot, the energy of in-person street performances still resonates with many voters. 'When young people perform like this, it lifts the older generation's spirits,' said Seoul resident Lee Soo-young, who joined Mr Lee's campaign.

Suni Lee on battling kidney disease, finding balance and being a lululemon girl Beauty, Wellness
Last year, the world watched on as the women's team from USA took home gold at the 2024 Olympics in Paris. Amongst the athletes, Suni Lee was a clear standout and fan favourite, not just for being the first Hmong American to compete at the Olympics but for her triumphant performance that led to a bronze medal for uneven bars. It was a moving win like no other, especially given how a year prior to the sporting event, Lee was battling a rare kidney disease. One that was devastatingly crippling, where she couldn't even put on pair of grips, let alone feel like she could ever compete again. Of course, Lee would go on to defy every odd, whilst openly advocating for her rare disease. 'Looking back, that time was really scary and uncertain. Being diagnosed with rare kidney diseases and having to step away from gymnastics was tough, I wasn't sure if I'd compete again. But with the support of my family, doctors, and coaches, I took it day by day and focused on my health. Making it to Paris and competing again showed me the power of resilience—sometimes it's about adapting and trusting the process, even when things don't go as planned,' says the 22-year-old. Courtesy of lululemon This year, post-Olympics, Lee is enjoying life to the fullest, just like any vivacious twenty-something. She's been glowing courtside at a few NBA games, reigning as a beauty queen on TikTok and has recently been named a lululemon ambassador with an Align campaign in tow. Like many women, Lee is not immune to the charms of the American athleisure brand, which makes this partnership a natural fit. 'Even before this ambassadorship, I have every single product in every single colour. A s an athlete, I've always appreciated how their gear supports performance without sacrificing comfort or style. But what really drew me in is their commitment to wellness as a whole—not just physical fitness, but also mental health and self-expression.' Below, the six-time Olympic medalist speaks to Vogue Singapore on her favourite Lululemon pieces, wellness practices and what her definition of strength looks like. Congratulations on your new Align campaign with lululemon that marks the product line's 10th anniversary. Tell us about your experience on set that day. Shooting the Align campaign was such a fun and empowering experience. The energy on set was so positive, everyone really made me feel comfortable and confident, which I think comes through in the photos. What I loved most was how true to me everything felt. The Align collection is all about softness and movement, so it didn't feel like I was 'posing'. It felt natural, like I was just being myself. It was a day full of laughter, good vibes, and a reminder of how powerful it is to feel comfortable in your own skin. What goes into your training as an athlete and gymnast and how does lululemon come in? Training as a gymnast is incredibly demanding as it is a mix of strength and flexibility, coupled with endurance and precision. I'm a huge fan of cross-training too, so I like to do things outside of the gym. Every day looks a little different, but there's always a focus on pushing my limits while also listening to my body. That balance is really important to me, and it's something lululemon supports in such a real way. Their gear moves with me through every part of my day, from high-intensity training to recovery and even rest. I rely on pieces like those from the Align collection when I need something soft and breathable during stretching or lighter workouts, and the brand's performance wear when I'm going full out. But more than that, I love that lululemon encourages a holistic approach to wellness, reminding me that taking care of my mental health and finding moments of stillness are just as important as the physical side of training. Courtesy of lululemon As a gymnast, athlete and public figure, how has it been like coping with stressors from a young age? What is your mindset when it comes to that? It hasn't always been easy, especially growing up in the spotlight while competing at the highest levels. As a gymnast and public figure, there's pressure from expectations, from social media, even from myself. But over the years, I've learned how important it is to give myself grace and protect my mental space. I've really worked on shifting my mindset from perfection to progress. It's okay to have hard days, and it's okay to step back when you need to. Surrounding myself with the right support system like family, coaches, and friends, and practising things like mindfulness and journaling have helped me stay grounded. I've also learned that strength isn't just about what you do in the gym, it's how you care for your whole self. How do you unwind? What gives you comfort during the strenuous times of rigorous training? I find comfort in simple things like spending time with my family and close friends who help me stay grounded. I also love journaling and practising mindfulness to clear my mind and reset. Sometimes, just putting on some music and moving at my own pace, whether it's stretching or Pilates, helps me recharge. It's those little moments of calm that keep me balanced and ready to take on whatever comes next. Courtesy of lululemon What is next for Suni? What's next for me is all about growth, both as an athlete and as a person. I want to keep pushing my limits, but also focus on using my platform to create a positive impact and spreading goodness. Being part of the lululemon community has been incredible because it's filled with like-minded people who believe in wellness, mindfulness, and supporting each other's journeys. You can expect to see me continuing to advocate for holistic health, inspiring others to find balance in their lives, and further collaborating with lululemon on projects that empower people to move, breathe, and be their best selves every day.

6 of Gemma Chan's most captivating beauty looks
You don't have to be a regular on the film or fashion circuit to have heard about Gemma Chan. For some, the English actress first made an impression as the fabulous Astrid Leong-Teo in Crazy Rich Asians . While others might recognise her from her ongoing ventures in Hollywood's biggest franchises, including the Eternals and Captain Marvel , Chan is easily one of the most sought after and versatile actors we have today. Beyond the silver screen, Chan has been a quiet red carpet fixture—shutting down the carpet with her signature brand of elegance and beauty. And as a UNICEF UK ambassador, she sure knows how to be a hero off-screen too, using her platform to champion important causes with the same passion she brings to every role. Her ambassadorships with sartorial heavyweights like Louis Vuitton and L'Oréal Paris have made her a global icon for fashion and beauty alike. With her rapidly growing resume, there is no doubt that Chan has surely made her mark. And by the looks of it, she's only just getting started. As of 2025, this includes being named the latest global ambassador for Cartier and stepping into the role of a producer, with projects such as Rise of the Empress and the upcoming adaption of Pim Wangtechawat's novel The Moon Represents My Heart . Whether she's busy captivating our screens or reinventing herself on the red carpet, Chan has proved that she's a woman full of grace, limitless talent and a multi-faceted beauty—both inside and out. From her signature red lip to a multidimensional smokey eye, Vogue Singapore presents a curation of Gemma Chan's best beauty looks. Peter Ash Lee 1 / 6 Party ready Nothing screams party ready quite like a smouldering smokey cat eye. One that works its way down to the eye-line—for extra drama. Pair it with a nude lip like Chan did for Vogue Singapore's June cover shoot, and let your eyes do all the talking. Getty 2 / 6 Power pout When it comes to a red lip, no one wears it quite like Chan. At the red carpet of the movie ' Eternals' during the 16th Rome Film Fest in 2021, she stunned in a bold cherry hue that perfectly complemented her look. A classic red lip after all, can be the ultimate head turner. Getty 3 / 6 Pink and green At 2021 Met Gala, Chan ensured all attention fell on her lids by pairing this pistachio green eyeshadow with an understated pink lipstick—the perfect pout to let those 'green with envy' eyes do all the talking. David M. Benett 4 / 6 Peach perfection At the 2023 Elle Style Awards, Chan gave a fresh take to the 2016 peachy make-up trend with her flushed apricot cheeks, warm tone lids, and a pale pink gloss. Courtesy of Cartier 5 / 6 Keeping it classy Channeling her inner Audrey Hepburn at the opening of the 2025 V&A Cartier exhibition, Chan's sleek old Hollywood-esque bun stole the show, with a loose hanging tendril to soften the look. Getty 6 / 6 All that glitters At the 2019 Met Gala, Chan went full ice queen with this Elizabeth Taylor inspired headgear; a fitting finish to her Tom Ford gown, might we add.
