Do not miss the Wishing Christmas Tree, on which customers are encouraged to put their wish for Christmas or to grant someone else's.

For those who do want to shop, products to look out for include plates with iconic Singaporean recipes, such as those for chicken rice and chilli crab ($16.90); upsized plushies shaped like dango, or sweet Japanese dumplings ($29.90); and playful gameboy- shaped lunchboxes (left, $14.90).

A highlight is homeware label Maison Miaja's new French linen collection, Porcelain (pictured), inspired by one of the most iconic minimalist painters of the 20th century, Piet Mondrian, known for his De Stijl (Dutch for The Style) works - an abstract aesthetic centred on simple visual forms such as geometric shapes and primary colours.
Mr Julian Miaja, Miaja Gallery's communications director, says: "The collection interweaves the classic minimalist lines and varying tones of blue with a twist of the decorative designs found on traditional hand-painted blue and white porcelain."
Each cushion is priced at $78.
Shoppers can also look forward to faux furs from home couture label Evelyne Prelonge, with pom-pom keychains ($45) and elegant throws ($580).
