Looking to shop Japanese fashion online from Singapore but don’t know where to start?
This guide brings you the top 10 Japanese fashion brands—from global names like UNIQLO and Comme des Garçons, to streetwear cult labels like WTAPS and HUMAN MADE—plus how to buy directly from Japan and ship to Singapore using Buy&Ship’s proxy shopping service.
🇯🇵 Why Japanese Fashion Is a Must-Have in Singapore
Singaporean shoppers are increasingly drawn to Japanese brands for good reason:
- Impeccable craftsmanship and premium materials
- Versatile, climate-friendly designs that suit SG weather
- A perfect blend of minimalism and expression
- KOLs and style communities fueling the J-fashion trend in Singapore
But here’s the catch:
Most Japanese fashion websites don’t ship internationally, or require a Japanese address or payment method.
