For most people, RISIS means orchids set in gold.
That has been the brand’s language for decades. This Jubilee Innovation Capsule, titled Nature, Reimagined By Creativity, moves it into wearable fashion.
Released as the second capsule in RISIS’ five-part Jubilee Capsule Series, Innovation, this chapter pushes the orchid into belts, scarves and asymmetrical jewellery.
The Oncidium Orchid Link Belt sits across the waist with gold and silver chain links and an orchid at the centre with a freshwater pearl. It sets the proportion of the look.
The silk scarf comes in soft pastel tones with orchid and butterfly wing motifs. The scarf ring holds a real orchid in 24K Swiss Gold and Palladium. It moves between neck, hair and bag.

The Re:Born pieces sit in asymmetrical forms across earrings, necklaces and brooches. Orchids once considered imperfect are broken into uneven shapes with open detailing.
The Re:Born Mosaic Orchid Necklace in Gold and Palladium is priced at SGD678. The Orchid Silk Scarf with Scarf Ring is SGD468 as a set. The Oncidium Orchid Link Belt comes in at SGD488.
The same materials are still there. Real orchids. 24K Swiss Gold. Hand-finished pieces.
What changes is how they are worn.
Around the waist. Tied at the neck. Worn into everyday dressing instead of occasion dressing.
The Innovation Capsule is available at RISIS ION Orchard, RISIS Takashimaya D.S. and RISIS Wisma Atria, as well as across all four airport terminals and the Singapore Botanic Gardens.
