When strolling along Orchard Road in search of elevated retail experiences, discerning shoppers often look for craftsmanship that transcends standard rack-ready fashion. Located on the fourth floor of Orchard Central is a sanctuary dedicated to female sartorial empowerment: Accent. As Singapore’s foremost modern tailoring atelier created exclusively for women, Accent is rewriting the rules of tailoring with sharp silhouettes, heritage cheongsams, and bespoke bridal masterworks designed for real bodies and multifaceted lives.

Modern Tailoring Designed for Every Body and Every Story

For decades, traditional bespoke tailoring in Singapore was largely perceived as a male-dominated domain. Co-founded by Ken and Lyn — the visionary team behind menswear tailor Assemble — Accent was born from a clear observation: modern women deserve the exact same uncompromising precision, luxurious hand-feel, and customized fit that men have savoured for generations.

Operating under the guiding philosophy of “For Every Body, Every Story,” the atelier rejects rigid off-the-rack sizing standards. Instead, the design team champions cuts that move fluidly with your silhouette. Whether you are searching for an authoritative corporate power suit, a breathable linen ensemble for weekend gallery hops, or an unforgettable wedding gown that you can wear again as versatile separates, Accent translates your lifestyle into tailored perfection.

Pro-Tip for Busy Shoppers: Because Accent is co-located with sister atelier Assemble at Orchard Central (#04-04/05/06), couples planning weddings, solemnisations, or galas can settle both groom and bridal outfits simultaneously under one stylish roof!

Signature Creations: From Modern Cheongsams to Bridal Mastery

What sets Accent’s Collections apart is the harmonious balance between classical textile heritage and minimalist contemporary aesthetics:

• Reinvented Modern Cheongsams: Forget stiff, restrictive fabrics. Accent’s bespoke and ready-to-wear cheongsams — such as the renowned Hikari, Calla, and AERA series — incorporate breathable linens, premium silks, and ergonomic cuts that honour Eastern heritage while delivering all-day comfort.
• Italian Luxury Fabrics: The atelier frequently curates world-class imported textiles, including rare Italian Loro Piana Summertime wool-silk-linen blends, creating garments that drape cleanly in Singapore’s tropical climate.
• Bespoke Power Suits & Separates: From double-breasted blazers and high-waisted cigarette trousers to pinstriped waistcoats and silk-satin camisoles, each garment is shaped to accentuate posture, proportions, and ease of motion.
• Unconventional Bridal & Evening Wear: For brides seeking alternatives to cookie-cutter gowns, Accent crafts modern pant-suit bridal wear, bespoke two-piece dresses with hidden pockets, and delicate veil pairings designed for modern celebrations.
• 100% Pure Cashmere Scarves: Available in 10 refined seasonal shades, these pre-order cashmere scarves come with optional customized monogramming — making them an exceptional gift for travel and festivities.

Investing in bespoke garments is an intimate journey, and Accent makes stepping into the world of tailoring approachable with attractive perks and offers:

The Bespoke Journey: Step by Step

If you have never commissioned a custom outfit before, Accent’s Tailoring Process is structured to make every fitting transparent, relaxing, and collaborative:

• 1. Style Consultation: Discuss your vision, functional requirements, and personal preferences with a resident stylist over coffee in their Scandinavian-inspired Orchard Central studio.
• 2. Design & Sketching: Review hand-sketched silhouettes, collar profiles, lapel angles, and pocket placements customized to complement your proportions.
• 3. Fabric & Trimmings Selection: Touch and select from hundreds of imported wools, linens, silks, and custom lining fabrics, alongside genuine horn and mother-of-pearl buttons.
• 4. Basting & Fitting Sessions: Try on a preliminary muslin or basted structure so the seamstress can calibrate waist darts, shoulder balance, and sleeve drape with millimeter accuracy.
• 5. Final Handover & Care Guide: Collect your finished masterpiece, complete with care instructions to ensure your garment retains its pristine structure for years to come.
