The Journey of PLATONIQUE

PLATONIQUE is a brand that proudly showcases the artistry of handmade products crafted in Singapore. The inspiration behind the name stems from the beloved film “Hanya Aku Cinta Kau Seorang,” which holds a special place in the hearts of my sister and me. This connection to our shared experiences ignites a passion that is woven into every creation.

From a young age, I found myself enchanted by the world of arts and crafts. However, my journey was not without its challenges. A pervasive fear of making mistakes often stifled my creativity, preventing me from fully embracing my artistic potential. Yet, after countless hours spent absorbing motivational content, I finally found the courage to pursue my dreams.

Upon graduating from secondary school, I eagerly enrolled in a newly established fashion school at ITE, thrilled to be part of its inaugural cohort. The excitement of learning and creating was palpable; however, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted my aspirations and led me into the logistics sector—a field far removed from fashion.

Despite facing numerous obstacles and setbacks in various business ventures, I learned an invaluable lesson: failure is not a definitive end but rather a necessary stepping stone on the path to success. With renewed determination, I rekindled my passion for sewing—a skill I had cultivated during my time at fashion school. This revival allowed me to create handmade items such as scrunchies and dopp bags, each piece reflecting my imagination and dedication.

PLATONIQUE transcends being merely a brand; it symbolizes resilience and creativity born from personal experiences. Every product is meticulously crafted with love and intention, transforming abstract ideas into tangible creations that narrate our story.

I invite you to join me on this inspiring journey as we celebrate the beauty of handmade artistry and the courage required to pursue one’s dreams. Together, let us embrace creativity and uplift one another in our quests for self-expression and fulfillment.
