Since debuting as part of the now-defunct Taiwanese girl group 4 in Love before embarking on a very successful solo career as a singer, actress and television host, Rainie Yang is likely an unfamiliar name to most of us. After all, tunes like My Intuition (or Ai Mei) and Rain Love (Yu Ai) are karaoke staples. The Taiwanese star is also happily married to Chinese singer-songwriter Li Ronghao and the two had to endure a yearlong separation due to Covid-19 and reunited in 2021. A champion of LGBT rights, Rainie has also caught our eyes with her take on fashion that’s infused with a casual, feminine yet edgy style.
For those who are afraid of styling prints and patterns, follow Rainie and pick a co-ord set. The combo ensures that the look will be cohesive and polished and you get two pieces that you can style separately with your other wardrobe inhabitants.
The bold, brightly coloured geometric patterns on this ensemble are meant to capture the energy of Rio de Janeiro. They are made with linen, which makes the outfit lightweight and breathable perfect for Singapore’s heat and humidity.
Gone are the days when it is considered a faux pas for any part of your bra to show through your clothes. Instead, embrace your sensuality like Rainie and wear your bra like a top and pair it with your favourite work suit.
If the thought of wearing your bra without a top is too much for you to fathom, take baby steps with a bodysuit. Not only does this double as underwear, but you can also pair it with anything from wide-legged jeans to a pencil skirt.
Scroll through Rainie’s Instagram and you’ll realise that she loves to accessorise with earrings. And she’s an equal opportunist to both delicate, dainty styles and chunky, statement ones.
Made with gold-tone brass to mimic the shape of seashell formations, these earrings are the compromise between dainty and chunky and are sophisticated yet casual enough for both black-tie dinners and weekend brunches.
Move over black dresses. While they are undoubtedly great for many occasions, white dresses are the perfect summertime outfits for their clean, ethereal look. And like Rainie here, pick one that comes with unique design elements.
From the puff-sleeves, off-shoulder neckline and asymmetric cutout, this unconventional, intricately detailed guipure lace dress is handmade by Colombian artisans.
ICYDK, Rainie is a petite lady standing at 1.6m. While she’s great at taking photos to fake a taller stature, she still depends on height-boosting footwear. Chunky sneakers with thick soles are Rainie’s shoes of choice on off-days when she doesn’t want to fuss with high heels.
Balenciaga has become known for its chunky sneakers and this pair of Track 2 sneakers are no different. The caged effect is a result of the construction using 176 different pieces of mesh and rubber.
