It seems like every day brings news of more CNY merch, like the Starbucks Chinese New Year 2021 collection. The festive spirit has reached the fashion industry too. Tory Burch recently launched a Year of the Ox collection, and the American designer brand even created a character, Ozzie the Ox, just for it. The star of the collection, which spans apparel and accessories, is the Tory Burch ox bag, which is literally shaped after an ox.
Ozzie the Ox is no ordinary cattle. Dressed in a tweed Tory Burch cardigan, this one-of-a-kind ox exudes tai tai vibes. Aspiring tai tais can take pointers from the character and wear a matching outfit for CNY. Sling this ox bag across your torso to complete the look.
To spice up her #OOTD, Ozzie is carrying a bright red handbag, which adds an auspicious touch so you’ll huat at the mahjong table. In a meta moment, her handbag is in fact an actual Tory Burch bag, the Lee Radziwill Petite Double Bag (right).
The cherry on top has to be Ozzie’s white, fluffy hair because you get to play with it when you’re bored by your relatives’ same old “Are you planning to go to university?” or “When are you going to get married?” questions.
Tory Burch’s Ozzie the Ox bag is priced at $885.

Aside from the novel ox bag, there are other items in this collection featuring Ozzie the Ox as well.
The Ozzie the Ox Sweater (left) is designed in a lucky red hue with the ox on the front. Made of wool, tweed, silk and shearling, this sweatshirt is perfect for the rainy season. But if you’re afraid of the heat, you can opt for the simple Ozzie the Ox T-shirt (right).
The sweater and t-shirt are retailing for $665 and $330 respectively.
If you’re looking for a more subtle take on the ox theme, the Ozzie the Ox Mini Bag (left) simply features the character printed on it. Measuring 11.5 by 17.5 by 6.8 cm, the bag has enough space to store your phone and multiple ang baos. The Ozzie the Ox Top-Zip Card Case (right) sees the ox graphics on a red leather canvas further adorned with colourful stripes.
You can cop the mini bag for $3,300 and the card case for $265.
This adorable Ox Espadrille sees Ozzie chilling out with a teddy bear. Priced at $420, the shoes are built with recycled canvas, with an appliqué leather upper and rubber sole.
If your Chinese horoscope is the ox, embrace it further by carrying the Tory Burch ox bag everywhere you go. You can shop Tory Burch’s Year of the Ox collection now on Tory Burch Singapore’s website or visit its stores at Wisma Atria and The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands.
