Functionality, Elegance, Drama: A Fashion Designer’s Introspection

When I decided to create casual wear, I thought of coming up with unique designs that would bring it to a level higher than the usual tops and bottoms. Another thing I consider is the functionality of the wardrobe. These creations fall under the casual wear category but can still be worn at work for women in the corporate world.

On Beatrix
This one has very classy vibe. I infused a contemporary touch in this little black dress. Beatrix gives an illusion of height and curve with the vertical curve line detail.

On Kassi
This is a perfect Friday office wardrobe. Wear the jacket for the day while in the office and take it off later in the evening for your Friday night out with the girls.

A cocktail dress is also a must-have in every woman’s closet. Megumi is such a girly design, very youthful and chic. The huge flower attachment accentuated the clean white Mikado silk.
Do you know the magic that an evening gown brings to a woman? It makes a woman feel regal, gorgeous, and special. And this is what I always think of when designing an evening gown.

On Olivia
As I say, this is perfect for the red carpet. The taffeta silk biased cut top and the serpentine skirt gives an hourglass appearance for the one who would wear it also because of the belt that cinch the waist.

On Amaris
Amaris is a debutante gown. Young ladies would love to wear something grand on important occasions such as debut. This ball gown gives a radiant glow to anyone who would wear it.

On Lianna
Lianna has that dramatic appeal because of the combination of black and gold hues. The black velvet gives out sophistication that matches the ‘star’ appeal added by the metallic gold fabric on the bust area.

On Antonia
Antonia is one of the grandest and most significant in my evening gown collection. Apparently, this gown has lots of details, intricate and carefully done. This one’s truly special as this was done for the Graduation Collection of the Fashion Institute of the Philippines.
