STYLE SHOW: We Will Rock Your Wardrobe
8:53 PMHad a really, really busy day last Saturday. and i mean really with a capital R. in the afternoon i had to emcee a fashion show at a big boutique mall in town (Ayala Center-Cebu)-- the big tenants in the mall were showcasing their summer collections-slash-outfit options for the fresh graduates (March is usually graduation time). That event was topbilled by the models of AD Models Homme et Femme, and again, hosted by yours truly and Patrick Rizarri, a DJ in town as well.
me holding out my script and bellowing to the crowd in one of the stops of the event-just wanted to show you what i wore, more details and photos later;)
I am still awaiting better photos (I was too busy hosting to snap really good ones), so for now I'm posting the shots from We Will Rock Your Wardrobe, a rock-meets-fashion charity event that I attended right after the first show. Organized by local rock impresarios Harakiri Mosh, the event was topbilled by some of the rock and reggaeton bands in the city, as well as other designers. My good friend Yves' collection served as the finale of the show, becoming the event's highlight.
I caught up with Aoi (new hair and all) before the show in this really interesting cobalt blue gathered top. notice the detail:
she said she got it thrifting. oh where where where?!
the venue was totally cramped inside, so i caught up with the girls outside while waiting for the start of the show:
the girls Jasmine and Carmina in a pale yellow pleated dress and long blue striped skirt, respectively
the two muses Aoi and Mari... loving the colours on this shot
Here are some of the photos during the show proper (photo credits: Pringhouls Matutinao of http://pringhouls.multiply.com)

All in all, its been a really exhausting day, but it's all well worth it. Ran into a lot of friends in fashion, and just had a simply great time. Oh, Earth Hour also happened in our end of the globe--hope you guys also did your part as well.
till the next post, XOXO!

Woah, you seem to have a really intresting life! I've always thought of the radio-DJ profession as a really cool one, like you have to have such a personality to be one.

Wooooow (notably) Jasmine and Carmina . . . The "Goddess-issime" vibrancy of their names sounds as a sensual promise that their pictures majestically confirm, on such a delicate/bewitching way . . .
ReplyDeleteps: Hope You're Well Dear !!!

Yeah, I mean if you have someting that you know you do good, do it and don't just leave it be. Really beautiful models as well. Do you know if they're looking for European models? It'd be so cool living in the Philipines working, haha.
ReplyDeletemuch love
looks like you had a fun time! =)
