Hong Kong Tatler's Fashion Editor, Justine Lee, has hand-picked the standout items that will help you shine at the art event

Art Basel is more than just an opportunity for art appreciation — it's a time to see and be seen as well. In order to stand out amongst all the innovative art that will be on display this year, your attire has to toe the fine line between eye-catching and polished. With a bit of help from The OUTNET, we've hand-picked four outfits for every occasion that will arise during Art Basel weekend.
