Spring Shopping: 8 reasons to attend Glamorous Giving 10

One of Singapore's biggest shopping events, Glamorous Giving 10, is coming up next week: in its 10th edition, on September 12 to 13, shoppers will find some of the best bargains of up to 80% off from more than 50 Singapore-based designers and retailers. Every edition, we’re increasingly impressed by new brands that come to showcase their collections as well as the brands that make a regular appearance. In the lead up to this shopping extravaganza, we spoke to a few of the regular brands about why they love being part of #GlamorousGiving and why they think you should attend.

Capsule Collection by Juliette

“Being at GG is always great fun! It is usually the first fair after the summer and it is always very nice to have this opportunity to meet and chat with a lot of people you know. Being at Glamorous Giving is a great honor as I am happy and proud to support UN women. This year, Glamorous Giving will be a fantastic opportunity for us as we will also introduce our new charity project which is a collection of 4 t-shirts in limited edition to support AIDHA, a Singapore based association helping female domestic workers achieve economic independence through financial education. Being at Glamorous Giving is fantastic to find all the brand you love with the best deals!” Juliette Capillaire

Stones That Rock

“As the event organisers, we love Glamorous Giving on so many levels. Firstly we are very proud to support the work of the Singapore Committee for UN Women via fundraising. We are also able to support their work by helping raise their profile and spread the message of their work across Singapore and the region. The event is also a great opportunity to provide an avenue for small businesses to clear stock – something which can be difficult and costly – to make way for new collections. Lastly, Glamorous Giving enables us to interact directly with our customers. We love bringing the community together – shoppers and vendors – to create a fun, highly anticipated event twice per year.” Leah Lambert

Just Gaya’s

“As a brand owner and shopper, I look forward to Glamorous Giving twice a year. As a brand owner, we are able to contribute to the Singapore Committee for UN Women, which ultimately empowers women across the region and as a shopper, I benefit from the great sales offered by each brand. The September edition is a great time to start early Christmas shopping too.” Gaya Subra

Simply Silk

“Glamorous Giving has become the talk of the town. Ladies look forward to it, as it’s by far the most relaxed and fun fair in the calendar. Shoppers come with full purses looking to snap up fantastic bargains and to catch up with their friends. Besides selling past collection pieces, for this edition of Glamorous Giving, I have especially sourced new designs – so my customers are in for a real treat. The opening night is always great fun – lots of bubbles and chatter – definitely looking forward to it!” Dominique Bunn

“I love participating in Glamorous Giving because of its amazing vibe and energy and of course because I know that we’re all supporting a fantastic cause. I’ve been part of the event from the beginning and I’ve loved watching it grow and become more and more popular as shoppers realise that there are genuine bargains to be had. After participating for so many years, I feel like I know so many of the brands and I always enjoy the community atmosphere and the way everyone is there to enjoy themselves.” Desti Saint

Theresa Cotton

“I love participating in Glamorous Giving because of the positive and good atmosphere at the event. It’s also a good opportunity to catch up, support and shop bargains from independent local vendors. I especially enjoy meeting up with customers as it’s a chance to introduce my brand and get people to try on African prints and feel the fabrics. Last but not least Glamorous Giving supports a good cause, Singapore Committee for UN Women, which raises awareness and funding for women and girls who are seeking economic independence, leadership development and a life free from violence and abuse. I always look forward to Glamorous Giving as it’s a fun and enjoyable event for everyone!” Theresa
