Sonia Chew Gets Into Her Shoe Era With prettyFIT

By Jessica Ye (Jessica Yap)

Sonia Chew clearly knows her shoes.

So when the 987FM radio personality decided to get into footwear design, it actually feels rather fitting.

Sonia has teamed up with local footwear label prettyFIT for her first shoe collection, On Air. Off Air. On Point., which launches today, 17 September, with three pairs inspired by three very different sides of her personality.

There is the Raye Sandals, named after British singer RAYE, with an 8cm heel and delicate straps. Then there are the Charli Flats, a Mary Jane-inspired pair named after Charli XCX. And finally, the Billie Sneakers, named after Billie Eilish, with contrasting laces and little silver charms that can be hooked onto them.

Personally, I already know which one has caught my eye.

The Espresso Martini Raye Sandals are the ones for me. That rich brown shade with an 8cm heel? Give me a fitted black dress, sheer tights, an oversized leather jacket and far too much jewellery.

Yes, I have already styled them in my head.

The Charli Flats are a good option if your wardrobe leans sweeter, while the Billie Sneakers make more sense for anyone who prefers a casual, playful look. The latter come with two sets of contrasting laces and silver charms shaped like stars, microphones and headphones, so there is plenty of room to make them your own.

Three shoes, three very different moods, and rather appropriately, three musicians whose styles are just as distinct.

On Air. Off Air. On Point. launches today, 17 September, from 5pm at prettyFIT stores and online.

As for me, I am still thinking about those Espresso Martini heels.

The leather jacket is already in my wardrobe. The jewellery is not going anywhere.

All I need now is the shoes.
