Leonardo Salinas Show in Photos

Last week in Makati Shangri-La Hotel was the Leonardo Salinas Show put together by Nokia Philippines and Inquirer Lifestyle, first of the Lifestyle Series which will launch the Nokia 6700 Classic.

Beautiful juxtaposition, they said. Minimal but stylish, they said. Salinas style against the Nokia 6700 Classic.
Just like Salinas’ stunning fashions, the Nokia 6700 classic speaks of fluidity, sensuality, and sheer elegance. The device is the latest style essential that is beholden with both beauty and brawn - a 5-megapixel camera that allows you to capture your fashionable flights …

Philippine Fashion Week Holiday 2009, Michelle Lim

Sometimes, the reason why I’m not all too excited about checking out collections from local designers is, it can be expected that I’ll just be seeing gowns with elaborate and intricate designs, accents and embellishments. Don’t get me wrong. It’s not that I find them bland or poorly made, in fact, it’s the opposite. Most works are enchanting and wonderful. It’s something to be admired and be proud of.
However, Philippine fashion isn’t all about cocktail parties, heck, folks in Manila hardly dress formal. Gowns are saved for debutantes, brides, Reyna …

PROMOD SS09 Show Samplers

Last Wednesday, I had the pleasure of seeing the PROMOD French Street Style for Spring-Summer 2009 in full motion via a Fashion Show held at the Fashion Walk in Greenbelt 5, Makati City.

With adrenaline pulsing through my veins, a common reaction whenever I watch fashion on the catwalk, I went and claimed my seat and proceeded taking snaps of what’s left of the show. I arrived late you see (darn coding, heh). I’m delightfully surprised that a seat was reserved for me, which enabled me to take snaps of the …

Rags2Riches Designer Line, RIIR by ARANAZ Launch

I came across this event over at Facebook early this evening and it definitely caught my attention. Through it I learned that premier bag designer Amina Alunan-Aranaz had worked together with the empowered women of Payatas in her latest bag collection. Working her magic, the collection will showcase the fusing of scrap materials with her signature mother of pearl components and handcrafted techniques to bring into life an ultra stylish yet sustainable set.
Witness the unveiling of eco-ethical style as Rags2Riches presents its 2009 designer line: RIIR by ARANAZ. An exhibit …

The Ramp Dishes Out Top 10 Trends for Summer 2009 at Fashion Day

Fashion Day at The Ramp in Glorietta 3, Makati City last night had started out slow for me. Had I felt like shopping, I would’ve browsed through the racks and racks of stylish goodies that are within my reach but my mind was already programmed that I was there to work and that’s it. Silly me. How can one possibly be so un-interested even just to window shop esp since she’s surrounded by all that fashion? Gah. I guess I was just too parched, too tired, and too early for …

The creations of Patrick Galang were showcased during Day 2 of the 2008 Philippine Fashion Week the New Generation Collection last Tuesday, 27 May 2008.

I found this video clip of a portion of his show on YouTube. Its quality isn’t so great but I guess it’s a way for us to see what went on, yea? Better than nothing, I’d reckon. Still working on getting permission to publish some photos, hopefully that pushes through so that you guys will be able to see them properly.

The creations of Anna Leah Salvador were showcased during Day 2 of the 2008 Philippine Fashion Week the New Generation Collection last Tuesday, 27 May 2008.

A very black and white set. Lots of LBD ideas. There were a couple of repeats, though. That’s a no-no in doing a show. I wish they kept the top hat on all the models, seemingly like the signature look. Love that bit.
Thoughts?
