Yacht 21
Affordable, nautical inspired cruisewear
200 Victoria Street, #02-34, Bugis Junction, Singapore 188021. Also available online and at various stockists.
This brainchild of founder Jaren Ho was born out of two things: a love for the sea voyaging lifestyle she experienced on a yacht a few years ago, and the increasing popularity of the resortwear style in Singapore. Yacht 21 aims to bring luxurious yet affordable cruisewear apparel to Singapore. And true to its roots from the deck of a yacht, much of Yacht 21’s product offerings are nautical inspired so you’ll look right at home cruising around the world on a yacht (or well, dreaming about it).
