One designer’s journey that started with a win at the Mercedes-Benz Stylo Fashion Awards.

STANDING at a height of 148cm, she might be considered small in size – but there is no doubting her big talent for fashion design. Although only 22 years old, Phuna Boon Yi has already had the honour of being named the Mercedes-Benz Stylo Emerging Designer of the Year 2013.
