Designers Sean Loh and Sheila Agatha founded their namesake brand, Sean Sheila, in 2012 after meeting at Raffles Design Institute in Singapore. With no formal industry training, they learned by doing, debuting their early collections in Sydney before finding an audience across Asia.
Their collections play with proportion and restraint, exploring how movement and tailoring can express vulnerability and strength all at once. Think draped jackets, kimono silhouettes, and layered skorts. “We always begin with emotion,” Sean says. “The story follows.” Sean Sheila designs reinterpret traditional Asian craft through contemporary tailoring, thoughtful materials and a design mission rooted in inclusion and impact.
From a studio in Sheila’s hometown of Purbalingga, they lead a team of deaf and mute artisans. “We wanted to prove that creativity has no limits,” Sheila says. Sustainability and experimentation guide every detail, from bamboo cotton and recycled triacetate to the meticulous handwork that defines their pieces
Quietly ambitious and deeply collaborative, Sean Sheila showcases fashion with empathy, intention, and purpose. Sean wears the TAG Heuer Carrera Auto Chrono White Dial SS/S 39 mm, and Sheila wears the TAG Heuer Carrera Date Automatic 36 mm.
