Remember the chic dino pouch Ho Ching carried to a White House dinner with U.S. President Barack Obama?
It was designed by Pathlight student Seetoh Sheng Jie, whose expresses his love for dinosaurs through his artwork, in which he recreates their silhouettes without using any form of reference material at all.
Halimah's Dino Pouch
Now, even President Halimah has lent her support to Pathlight, sporting her very own dinosaur-themed fashion accessory.
During the Internal Security Department's 70th anniversary event on Wednesday, Oct. 3, she was spotted, in a photo uploaded by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Thursday, carrying a silver pouch with silhouettes of dinosaurs.
