New home for Luz Magsaysay’s Valera, Alonzo ternos

Lime green terno by Valera.
What started as an act of altruism has since snowballed and taken a life of its own as a larger movement for the preservation of the arts —this time, of the sophisticated creations of the country's most renowned fashion couturiers.
Stunning evening gowns by National Artist for Fashion Design Ramon Valera and Camel awardee Aureo Alonzo were graciously donated by Mila Magsaysay Valenzuela, the daughter of former First Lady Luz Banzon Magsaysay.
A lady in the truest sense of the word, Magsaysay captivated everyone with her utter simplicity. A devoted wife and dedicated mother, she is most remembered by an appreciative generation as the composed widow during the grim and grey days when her husband, President Ramon Magsaysay, perished in a tragic aircraft disaster which the entire country and diplomatic world mourned.
