One of the faces that stood out on the catwalk is this lady. Mira Baino walked the ramp for the PROMOD SS09 Fashion Show and owned it — both clothes and the whole modeling thing. If I were to cast someone for PROMOD, to sell French fashion to the Philippine Market, I would most probably have chosen her. Apart from that touch of the Filipina look in her features and an over-all soft exotic beauty, she has that “je ne se quoi” quality about her and it reflects in her personal style. The stripes is very French and opting for the sort of footwear she’s wearing creates a laidback chic-ness in her outfit.

Thanks for letting me publish your photo, Mira.
