We have carefully selected silhouettes that have proven popular with each season's collection ( of course with new prints) and have added some new ones to the mix!
Let's introduce you to the new Silhouette's first!
1. Ruffle Shuffle Skirt
This playful and feminine skirt is a new design for Nala this season! It's so beautiful and light weight, as is the ENTIRE Spring collection we're carrying! So you can swan around in it, just about anywhere, easily pairing it with a Tank Top and sandals or t-shirt and sneakers. Or get some mileage out of it when you travel to cooler climates by popping on a cream sweater, tights and boots! We have tried to be a bit fancy and paired BOTH Pebble prints with some Barbie movie flavours of PINK!
1. Minkpink Lovita Halter Knit Tank
Other WYLD top options to style this skirt with could include:
** Vine and Branches the Label - Rae Cut Out Tee
** Minkpink Rhea White Halter Top
** Hái White Plunging-V Bandage Bodysuit 
2. Tulip Midi Dress
So this season's Nala Tulip Dress, the designer has made slightly longer, adding a very sexy split right up the back. This silhouette is a clear nod to the 40's and 50's tulip meant to accentuate the waist, showing off the feminine shape of the hips and bust. And let's not forget the easy pocket detail! this Dress is perfect for an office look paired with blazer, cropped jacket or cardigan which can be removed and popped with a strappy heel for a sleek dinner look!
Mandi has been styled with a pair of Le Specs Outta Love in Caramel and Ani is styled with our Baebeeboo Summer Pink Jaedals
3. Ruffle Top
This RUFFLE TOP is the bomb.com! Not only can it be worn 3 different ways, it's light as a feather and can be a tuck-in or left-out situation. Super cute paired with a block colour pant i.e our Minkpink Kehlani belted Pants or jean and would look amaze with a white denim skirt or shorts with sneaks for a more casual look!
The complete off-the shoulder look is great for most body types but would compliment the following :
-
Hourglass Body Shape: Off-shoulder tops can accentuate the shoulders and create a balanced look when paired with a fitted waistline, which is a characteristic of the hourglass body shape.
-
Pear Body Shape: If you have a pear-shaped body (narrower shoulders and wider hips), off-shoulder tops can draw attention to your upper body, creating a more balanced appearance.
-
Rectangle Body Shape: Off-shoulder tops can add curves and definition to the shoulders and chest, which can be especially flattering for those with a straight or rectangular body shape.
-
Inverted Triangle Body Shape: Off-shoulder tops can complement this body shape by emphasizing the shoulders and creating an appealing balance between the upper and lower body.
-
Oval or Apple Body Shape: People with an apple-shaped body may find that off-shoulder tops help to draw attention upward and away from the midsection, creating a more flattering look.
4. Jump IN Suit
The JUMP IN SUIT has been modfied from the previous collection and now is available in a lighter weight fabric and is slightly more of a structured fit. However, this style is not meant to be figure hugging at all but the belt can be used to draw in to cinch in the waistline. It is a very relaxed look and can be easily paired with sneakers as per Mandi's outfit or with a wedge or kitten heel shoe for a sophisticated brunch #ootd! And due to the v-neck line - you can have fun accessorising with cute and colourful necklaces like Mandi's layers from our ENVET Collection or pair with soft and delicate gold / silver pieces from Lilie Sai Wan!
The following are winning styles with stunning new hand-illustrated prints!
5. Classic Ladies Dress
This has always has been a treasured favourite from any NALA Collection and we have been carrying this style for the last 5 years! She is Classic, Feminine and is the perfect nod to the 50's style! This season sees gorgeous embroidered detail as the designer was heavily " Inspired by our worlds endless source of shapes, materials
and the natural elements".
We love this tunic style dress, it's always been a winner for us because of It's versatility. You can wear it from beach to bar and then layer it up with pants or jeans and even when you travel you can easily style with your thermals underneath, warm opaque tights and knee-high boots. A fantastic option is to throw this on over some shorts for school drop off or pickup! And as you can see, Ani has been styled up with a contrasted printed belt from the collection, but a simple white belt would look super cute too!
7. Classic Ladies Shirt
The Nala Classic ladies shirt has certainly been a staple in each collection we have featured. The silhouette has roughly remained the same, with small tweaks each season but what we love about this seasons', is of course the Petals prints in Bitter Sweet and Super Lemon, but the light soft cotton that is so perfect for Singapore's hot and sticky climate. This shirt is perfect for people who still like to wear a sleeve regardless of the heat, but want to feel cool and comfortable! It can be worn super casual with shorts, 3/4 pants and would also look super cute with a denim skirt and sneakers or wedges!
Ani is styled up with the Cindy Windy Skirt in Georgia Red with cute Fruitti Stud earrings from a local label called Threeonetwofive and then with her own beige denim jeans and Envet accessories.
