Where to get last-minute Hari Raya fashion
Every year, online and offline stores offer the latest Hari Raya collections featuring modern upgrades to the traditional baju kurung, baju melayu or baju kebaya, appealing to those who prefer bold and unconventional looks.
With less than a week left to Hari Raya, which happens on 25 June, here are some options to help you with some last- minute shopping, especially if you have yet to purchase your outfits.
Once again, Japanese casual wear brand Uniqlo has collaborated with British muslim fashion designer Hana Tajima, offering simple, contemporary and elegant designs for those who like a minimalistic style.
The full collection is available at UNIQLO’s flagship Orchard Central outlet and online. Prices range from S$19.90 for a Bottleneck Long Sleeve T-shirt to S$79.90 for a full-length dress.

Multi-label boutique, En Pointé, stocks a curated assortment of ready-to-wear pieces from popular Malaysian labels like Ezzati Amira, Mimpikita, Fiziwoo, Syomirizwa Gupta, and more.
If you are looking for exclusive pieces, this is one store you should visit as they stock limited pieces per design and it is not as likely that you’ll bump into someone wearing the same thing.
Head over to their boutique located on 735 North Bridge Road (closed on Mondays) to get your last-minute outfits.
