S Lady is a prominent fashion retail concept brand operating in Singapore and China, specializing in an O2O (Online-to-Offline) retail model. The brand has established retail outlets in prestigious business and financial districts, such as One Raffles Place and Raffles City, while leveraging livestreaming to engage a global audience. Founded in 2015 by Serene Sun, who holds a Master of Science in Technopreneurship & Innovation from Nanyang Technological University, S Lady has achieved remarkable growth in recent years. Co-founder Ivy, a fashionista, complements Serene’s vision and expertise, helping to propel the brand’s development of the O2O business model over the past five years.
S Lady faced the challenge of enhancing its brand visibility within a competitive fashion landscape, particularly in the Chinese market. The brand aimed to expand its reach and engage effectively with Chinese consumers, especially through social media platforms. Additionally, it sought to create a robust connection between online and offline shopping experiences, ensuring that customers could engage seamlessly with the brand in both environments.

This comprehensive strategy significantly boosted sales and improved customer satisfaction, while also fostering brand loyalty.
