Justin Yap recalls being around 11 years old when his calling to the world of fashion revealed itself.

The 39-year-old designer of the eponymous label Justin Yap Atelier has always had a love for drawing, but it was only at around this pre-teen age when he discovered his interest in creating clothes.
