Our Beginning
If the name "AMOI" resonates with you, it's because it's a heartfelt tribute to my Teochew mother, who has inspired my love for fabrics and clothes. I named this brand after her as a way of honouring her love and encouragement for me.
I've always had a deep appreciation for supporting local businesses and the unique, personal touch that small boutiques offer. The idea of starting my own business had been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember. However, fear and self-doubt often held me back. I was comfortable in my routine and questioned whether I had the courage and capability to take on something as significant as starting my own business. Growing up, I often felt average, and I wondered if I could ever achieve something truly special. These doubts weighed heavily on my heart, and I pushed the idea of starting my own business to the back of my mind.
But the desire to create something that I could call my own never faded. It grew stronger. When the opportunity finally presented itself, I knew it was time to take a leap of faith. I took a deep breath and dove in headfirst. And AMOI was born.
I hope you find joy, inspiration, and a sense of connection in our collections, just as I have found creating them. And as you explore our offerings, remember that AMOI is more than just a brand—it's a tribute to the love and encouragement of a remarkable woman who inspired it all.

The Brand
AMOI
- Awaken Moments of Inspiration -
I grew tired of seeing fashion forced into two extremes—cheap, disposable clothing or luxury labels with impossible price tags. There had to be a middle ground: pieces designed to last, with thoughtful craftsmanship, that didn’t ask you to sacrifice your values or your budget.
And so, I created AMOI for the person who believes what you wear should mean something. Every stitch, fabric, and cut is chosen to make you feel seen—not just by others, but by yourself. Because when your clothes fit right, respect your time, and align with your conscience, you stand taller.
This isn’t just about style. It’s about the quiet confidence of knowing your choices matter. No logos shouting for attention, no trends to chase—just you, perfectly at home in your own skin.
