SINGAPORE — Indonesian couturier Sebastian Gunawan presented a refined Spring 2014 collection full of elaborate embroideries and sequin details that celebrate his modern muse, an everyday woman who loves to display her fashion choices through social media.
“A muse is a woman who always inspires others,” he said, pointing out that some social media stars have become fashion darlings. “These bloggers are not movie stars but they know how to put an ensemble together [and garnder followers] around the world. Fashion no longer belongs to a certain class in society. It belongs to everybody,” he said.

The Spring 2014 collection, titled ModMuse, pays homage to various epoques through plays on silhouettes. For example, dresses inspired by the 1920s use small organza ruffles to create movement; long backless dresses recall the silver screen sirens of the 1940s; pretty bouffant skirts with sequins and feathers have a 1950s new-look vibe; while A-line dresses recall the 1960s.
The collection’s palette revolves around three main colors — royal blue, gold, and silver — and a variety of fabrics, damask, organza, brocade, and hand-beaded sequins.
ModMuse was presented in Singapore as part of Fashion Week 2013 at Marina Bay Sands. We caught up with the designer as he was casting models for the runway show. Watch him talk about his collection in the video.
