Peranakan Kebaya trial ❤️

I find this is not well known even in Singapore

Because I don’t see people wear this and I never seen any of my local friends wear as well 🫢

So after I shared about this even those who married to locals was asking and quite of people were asking where I am traveling now 😂

This is in Singapore 🇸🇬

It was quite fun to try and price was very affordable 🥰

We only paid for the entrance fee of the space+hair+kebaya rental (you can add photographer, makeup, tea/food)

And we take photos of each other so no photographer and we prefer our own makeup, didn’t add makeup as well

But if you don’t usually wear makeup, adding a makeup also a good choice

The hair depends on the style have different price list but me and my friend go for the basic style!

And they have some reference photos with price listed so you can choose well

Me and my friend is around 40kg 158-160cm so the outfit wasn’t fit but mo worries they use the clothespin to shape it well 🥰

And it is very thin fabric, it is quite see through but they also provide camisole!

My recommendations is go for the colour that compliments your skin tone over your favorite colour. Red is not my favorite colour but I only check which colour makes my skin looks the best

They do not have changing room or locker, they also provide shoes. So it is good to wear something easy to take off

And we went 1pm so outside is very hot we didn’t do outdoor, only stayed indoor

... Read moreIf you're exploring the Peranakan culture in Singapore and want a memorable experience, renting a kebaya at the Singapore Peranakan Mansion is an excellent choice. Besides the kebaya and hair styling options that vary by price, they also provide supportive accessories like camisoles since the fabric can be quite sheer. One useful tip I discovered is to pick kebaya colors that complement your skin tone rather than just your favorite colors. Even if red isn't my go-to color, it suited my skin better and enhanced the look overall. The staff are very accommodating, using clothespins to adjust the outfit fit perfectly even if the kebaya isn't your exact size. They don’t have changing rooms or lockers, so it’s best to wear easy-to-remove clothing underneath. Also, considering Singapore’s warm weather, it's a good idea to opt for an indoor photoshoot to avoid heat discomfort. While I chose to skip professional makeup and photography to save costs, those services are available for an extra fee, which might be helpful if you want a polished look. Taking turns to photograph each other made the session fun and more personal. The experience is great for both locals and visitors eager to learn about Peranakan heritage through authentic costumes. Don't hesitate to ask the staff for recommendations based on your preferences and skin tone, as they have helpful reference photos and pricing information. Overall, an affordable and culturally enriching activity worth trying in Singapore!
