Walking the runway for five shows will be renowned androgynous supermodel Andrej Pejic – reportedly his one and only Spring Summer 2013 show this season. The muse of Jean Paul Gaultier allegedly turned down walking for other runway shows due to an “unappealing pay”.

Fashion personality and celebrated stylist Patricia Field will also be one to the VIPs who have been specially invited to attend Digital Fashion Week Singapore.

Big plans are in place for Digital Fashion Week Singapore; which will take place biannually, and will by 2013, branch out to other key cities in Asia.
