trappings cebu's AZUL collection (show review)

one of my absolute favorite pieces from the show. this has fringes all the way to the knees. jawdropping
Show finale with Trappings Creative Director Mabel Paredes. That custom denim dress looked sensational on her!
As promised, here's my follow up post on Trappings Cebu's AZUL presentation at Formo. I suppose the pictures can speak for themselves but like I mentioned prior, Mabel Paredes just blew me away with such an edgy yet still very wearable and pretty collection. In a competitive industry where glitzy and glittery accessories are more commonplace, Mabel just went in and went down the path less travelled by delivering unique pieces rife with attitude and moxie and truly made something unique to her own label. Inspired by art and denim, the designer's creative influences and knowledge of today's hottest accessories trends came together to translate beautifully down the runway, manifesting in one-of-a-kind bib necklaces, earrings, lariats, and fringe pieces. There was definitely something for everyone in the collection, even if you have more classic or street-smart tastes. It was just one showstopping piece after another that me and my friends kind of found ourselves gasping for air already--which is, of course, an indication that we thoroughly loved the presentation.
The great thing about Trappings is that Mabel creates the pieces herself and will only create one copy of each design (unless of course a style is requested in particular). The price points are very affordable and reasonable as well for such incredible one-off pieces.
In Cebu, you can visit Trappings at The Maze in Ayala Center Cebu. Elsewhere, you can add them up on Facebook (Trappings Cebu) or contact them at trappings73@gmail.com.
Mucho thanks to my collaborator Hazel Pax for these beautiful runway shots.:)
