Kashieca, Vero Moda, Sassa Jimenez Starts Fierce Bench Fashion Week Day1

It's been a while since we've seen Bench do a shown on the runway. They've also grown their other brands over the years and have built partnerships with talented Filipino designers because they believe in our innate talent. This weekend, they're holding a 3 day BENCH FASHION WEEK and is featuring Kashieca, Vero Moda and the works of Sassa Jimenez. I lt was young, fresh, and elegant. I couldn't find more words to describe the show so I'll make you be the judge. I took photos of all the clothes in the runway and I hope you enjoy this! I barely slept editing photos last night so I hope you like this!

Oh and before the show, we saw real life sweethearts Daniel Padilla and Kathryn Bernardo. They were welcomed by the big man Ben Chan himself before they got to their seats. There were a couple of beauty queens, artists, models too but I was so excited to share these shots and got them all here for you to see. Follow me @kumagcow on IG and Twitter to say thanks, I'd appreciate that! :)

Philippine Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2015: Kashieca Forges Anew Your "Little Black Dress"

When Suyen Corporation (people behind bench too) holds a show, it'll surely be talked about for seasons. This is my first bite of Philippine Fashion Week (this Spring Summer 2015 season) because I missed Forever21 last Friday. Anyway, this is going to be fun because I liked what I saw the moment I entered Hall 4 of SMX. This is Kashieca's "Little Black Dress" homage to probably countless ladies who have it in their closet. They want you to be a little more adventurous, fix your dress up in many ways and enjoy it. I might have to break this post up and get HUMAN for another article because I think it's that special. Let's get right into the show shall we?

The stage was simple, they had white fabric running from top to bottom. They had the models stand behind these and come out in a group first. Then they take on the ramp one by one. 

They had striped skirts and tops. They didn't delve into the full "Little Black Dress" theme yet that time but of course I think this is what they had in mind, a direction.

I also saw one of my favorite models on the runway Nikita McElroy. I would love to do a portrait of her someday. I've seen her like my instagram posts and I hope I get to do that soon. It's in my bucketlist as a fashion photographer. Do you see the little black dress somehow in the mix? It's going on top, and sometimes on the bottom, the full dress isn't showing yet but I think that's exactly how the designers ultimately want you to understand how the little black dress can be worn in many ways!
