The wait is over, Swifties and AUPEN fans alike! Taylor Swift&rsquo;s favourite AUPEN bag has just been restocked, but word on the street is that this may be your last chance to snag one.

After months of whispers and speculation, AUPEN&rsquo;s secretive founder has been revealed&mdash;and let&rsquo;s just say he&rsquo;s no stranger to the spotlight. Nicholas Tan, Singapore&rsquo;s former golden boy in the pool, has gone from swim trunks to sleek leather bags in a transformation that&rsquo;s caught the industry off-guard.

Nicholas isn&rsquo;t just a trailblazer with a proven track record; he&rsquo;s a former Southeast Asian Games champion, a face of Dolce&amp;Gabbana&rsquo;s global campaigns, and the visionary behind AUPEN, the buzzy brand that has charmed Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Olivia Rodrigo, Jennifer Lawrence, and Selena Gomez. Just when we thought AUPEN&rsquo;s mystery factor couldn&rsquo;t be more intriguing, Nicholas is set to announce AUPEN&rsquo;s highly anticipated partnership with LVMH M&eacute;tiers d&rsquo;Art&mdash;a new chapter in AUPEN&rsquo;s ascent that has the industry buzzing.
