Nic Wong

launched in 2005, nicholas is an eponymous label created for the stylish contemporary professional lady of modern times. nic wong, the creative brainchild behind the label, has always been accredited for his meticulous attention to geometrically quirky details in his understated designs for apparels and accessories. the crisp clean lines of his designs are typical of his sensitivity towards technical construction.

having pursued his studies and dabbling in various design industries such as graphic and interior design, nic has developed design sensibilities with the juxtaposition between contrasting elements flaunted on a highly accessible monochromatic palette augmented with bold and vibrant hues.

in 2001, nic bagged the atelier east design excellence award for fashion design and scored a scholarship to pursue his studies in fashion design with royal melbourne institute of technology (rmit). upon graduation, he was voted as one of singapore’s top ten fashion graduates and was awarded with a merit award under the category of ‘best menswear collection’.
