May 2011, Singapore – Marie France Bodyline collaborates with one of Singapore’s iconic couture fashion designers, Francis Cheong for his Spring/Summer 2011 Couture Collection show, Club Chinoiserie, on 17 May, 9pm at the Audi Fashion Festival 2011, The Tent, Ngee Ann City.
About Francis Cheong
Francis Cheong stepped into the dazzling limelight of Asian high fashion when he became the youngest finalist in the history of the prestigious Singapore Young Designer’s Contest. Amidst senior designers like Tan Yoong and Thomas Lee, teenager Francis’ talent was promptly noted. Three years later, the 21 year-old bagged an impressive first runner up for the same competition. Undaunted, Francis continued to wow fashionistas world-wide as he was appointed official designer for the Miss Universe pageant in 1987. Since then, his arresting approach to couture—a combination of immaculate French embroidery with extravagant Italian fabrics—has gained worldwide recognition. This included his design for Beyonce during F1 Singapore.
Femininity is a must for Francis. That’s why through his designs, he strives to create a customised, classic wardrobe worthy to compliment any woman’s body. The meticulous crafting that goes into every fluid creation—striking beadwork and intricate embroidery paired with perfect cuts and simple lines—are all finely balanced to portray Francis’s philosophy of sophisticated femininity. This includes consistently exploring the use of new materials, cuts and patterns every season to capture and recapture couture beauty. A firm perfectionist, his creations have become synonymous with the relentless pursuit of beauty. In 2004, Moët & Chandon paid him noteworthy tribute in recognition of his outstanding contributions to Asian high fashion. With his versatile and yet assertively flamboyant style, Francis always rises to the challenge of making his customers feel more than millions with his hallmark of elegant lines, glamorous pieces and priceless creations.
