It’s always been customary to celebrate the Lunar New Year in new clothes and bright colours as it signifies a fresh start and sets the tone for the year. On top of that, we’d like to think that 2021 is a little more special as we’ve managed to overcome the struggles of the past year and become stronger to face what lies ahead – which gives us all the more reason to look our best this CNY, despite the MCO! With less than two weeks left to plan, we’ve rounded up some of our favourite launches for you to celebrate the festivities in style.
Behati ‘Baju Cina 2021’ Collection
If you’re looking to make a statement, Behati’s ‘Baju Cina 2021’ has got you covered. With a mix of oversized silhouettes and reimagined, modern styles, the collection makes for a perfect choice to stand out in. Our favourite looks from the collection include the PJ Samfu in Jade and the ‘Pantai’ set in Tenun Cina in Navy Blue – looks for Chor Yat and Chor Yee, perhaps?

Timberland ‘#TEAM New Year’ Collection
This CNY marks a special year for Timberland as it’s the fourth full lunar cycle since the original yellow boot was launched, and it falls in the Metal Ox year. With traits like striving for better, authenticity and teamwork, the brand’s new CNY line encapsulates the spirit of the Year of the Ox with a festive camo print that incorporates the Chinese character ‘添’ which means ‘to gain’ and sounds similar to the word ‘team’. The range includes a few ready-to-wear pieces including the ‘Madbury’ side-zip sneaker boots and the signature (and our fave!) ‘Raywood EK+’ boots that have received a lunar update and are made of recycled and eco-conscious materials.
