Synopsis: Every Thursday, find out about lifestyle and even stay-home entertainment choices during the Covid-19 period in Singapore.
This week, Money FM's Bernard Lim calls up The Straits Times' senior culture correspondent Ong Sor Fern to talk about Asian Civilisations Museums new galleries.
The Fashion & Textile gallery is opening with a very nice collection of outfits that track the development of womens fashion from the late Qing through to the Republican era. Its quite amazing what womens clothes and shoes can tell you about a society.
The jewellery collection is delightfully surprising as one of the first exhibits you encounter is a crown plaited from grass and headgear with elephants teeth, seeds and feathers.
Find out more by reading Ong's article.
