Description:
“Kena”, “Bo Liao”, “Wayang”, “Bo Jio”, “OK Lor”. These terms are an integral part to our local Singlish that we don’t think twice when we use them. These words are easily understood by anyone and everyone in the street, from anyone young or old. As a fashion stylist, I have dressed Mickey using a street fashion concept incorporating elements of the Singlish language that is part of our everyday lives, with a recurring ‘street-style’ fashion motif that constantly recurs over the decades, signifying that using Singlish will never go out of style.
