Fashion designer Jot Losa celebrated 15 years in the industry with a major fashion show. Held in his hometown, San Juan, Manila, the momentous event presented an impressive 42-piece collection highlighting nostalgic references that were either heritage and patriotic.
Revisiting his childhood memories, in full bloom were beautifully embroidered or painted sampaguita (the country’s national flower) which symbolically is an homage to the designer’s ancestry and family legacy.
The well-attended event was graced by Manila’s respectable government officials, fashion insiders, editors, journalists, celebrities, influencers and special guests. The night will forever leave a mark for the talented and humble designer who always looks back before taking a big leap forward.
Congratulations, Jot Losa -— with your modest demeanor and positive outlook you’ll definitely last and we are all looking at 15 forward to your 25th in 10 years. Mabuhay!
