📀 ABOUT SMALL FRY
DJ Small FRY is the host of Mooncake on Triple R which celebrates diverse sounds from Asia and artists of the Asian-diaspora.

🖤 ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Pairing two of the most influential fashion designers in recent history, Vivienne Westwood and Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons, Westwood | Kawakubo showcases over 140 designs that explore the commonalities and differences between the two designers’ work.
Today, their critically acclaimed collections are celebrated globally for questioning conventions of taste, gender and beauty, as well as challenging the very form and function of clothing.
