The ONLINE FASHION SHOW at Philippine Fashion Week Holiday 2018

Monday, May 28, 2018




I was wondering what would comprise the third show on this day with Philippine Fashion Week Holiday 2018 because there were no details on the designers joining this particular event. It just said ONLINE FASHION SHOW which had me interested with it. During the 7:30pm show, founder Joey Espino took the stage and halted what seemed to be a runway show in the beginning. He mentioned the strides that the Philippine Fashion has done in order to get the attention of the world. 

He knows that the people are looking towards ASIA and he understands how Filipino designers will be an intergral part of this growth. He's probably tired about just concentrating his grasp with just the Philippine market and wants designers to start building efforts towards going ONLINE, have their shop available after the show so they could sell as soon as their wares hit the runway. I totally agree with his point of view, we shouldn't be limited with what we can do here, it all should be available for the world stage because the FILIPINO is world class!
 
This is the direction they say would spell good this season,  something of androgyny. Cloth and fabric that can be worn by men and women, style that won't go out of season even if it is. The advantage of selling it out of the country is that, you won't be bound by a single market. Wherever you are in the world as long as the mail gets through, you can shop at the comforts of your own home. He also told us that with the traffic in EDSA, we ought to stay in our homes and shop online so you won't have to go the trouble of fainting in the heat, or stuck in malls because in reality, he's got a point.








Sidney Perez Sio for Philippine Fashion Week Holiday 2018


This isn't the first time that I've covered a Sidney Perez Sio show. With the past collections inspired by New York street life, hip hop, crossed with the famous Barong Tagalog and Maria Clara twisted into his work, he was ruffling feathers already in the Philippines since 2005. Athleisure wasn't a term yet but he probably has done it so many times, he would yawn with what people are coming out with now. He was part of the ASEAN Young Fashion Designers Contest, shows in Manhattan, New York. He also worked with prime designer Inno Sotto and other shows in the PHFW trail.


He's here to impress and yes, we were. I took it upon myself to also shoot the back part of the models so you can take a look at the details of the whole dress/shirt, so please enjoy!




Philippine Fashion Week Holiday 2018 MENSWEAR using OPPO F7




 I had so much fun during the Philippine Fashion Week Holiday 2018 second day. Unfortunately I wasn't able to cover the shows on the first day because of life. The show which happened at 3:30PM Manila time was just something that I was looking forward to see and I was so happy I got the tickets online (very last minute) and I felt I had to shoot again no matter what it takes.

The MENSWEAR Collection was pretty much a combination of the best of the best fashion houses in Manila who make menswear available for those who want designer clothes, that would best represent the Filipino ingenuity. These are only phone shots that I did with the Oppo F7, the brand's flagship phone. Aside from the lowlight condition, the models actually walk fast so I did expect a little blur here and there, but so far the phone has performed quite well under these conditions. I'll be putting out some DSLR shots of the other shows in a bit. For now, enjoy these shots of the Philippine Fashion Week Holiday 2018 MENSWEAR!

Check Out Jurassic World at SM Cinema

Saturday, May 26, 2018




Spent a few hours this morning at SM THE BLOCK in Quezon City. Apparently, there has been a dinosaur sighting inthe mall's event area. It's the real life Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom done from Reel to Real as part of SM Cinema's efforts to promote the movie with the same title.



The displays are incredibly realistic and I thought these things would just jump out and bite us, but it's a good thing they didn't move.



It's also awesome that the event allowed us to play with licensed toys, kids had a chance to also win prizes including toy sets from LEGO (who did not invite me btw LOL) but I like what they allowed us to do. There were sand boxes, play tables, even lego corners filled with buckets upon buckets of bricks and parts, your limit is your imagination!



Aside from that, they announced that Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom will be shown on June 6 at all SM Cinemas starring Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard and many more at the mystical island of Isla Nublar. The display including dioramas will be shown to the public on The Block until June 10, SM City Fairview on June 14-June 21, SM BF Paranaque on June 28-July 8 and SM City Clark on July 12-July 22. You can see this movie on IMAX, Directors Club and SM Cinema nationwide! 

You shouldn't miss this as there are new breeds introduced!
