ELLE Singapore Magazine - December 2022

In this issue

We’re celebrating the end of the year with our December issue. Fronted by Chinese singer Lay Zhang, he embarks on the greatest adventure of all — revolutionising modern music with traditional influences. In the Fashion section, we also speak to South Korean actress Mun Ka Young on creative catharsis and being her true self. Also in this issue, see our gift guide for the naughty and nice, and in the event of any last-minute invites, steal the show with amped-up takes on classic makeup looks.
