Her will, her grace
The motifs were simplified, stylized, or reinterpreted in an abstract way, rather than being represented in their original or traditional form.

Fashion designer Lulu Tan Gan.
When you see a parade of piña and colors on the runway, you know Philippine fashion’s queen of knit is back! After last year’s successful ball, seasoned fashion designer Lulu Tan Gan’s pieces are back on the runway and this time for the iconic TernoCon 2025, a visionary event that happens once every two years and an ingenious legacy testament in cooperation with the Cultural Center of the Philippines to promote, support, preserve and redefine fashion through its rich history, culture and tradition. Lulu’s collection at this spectacular edition held at a national landmark, the Philippine International Convention Center, was inspired by the works of National Artist Ang Kiukok.


A contemporary take on modern wear.



Stylish pieces that are wearable for everyone.
The collection was a contemporary take on modern wear. It was a fusion and mix of street, lounge, resort and a few formals. One can tell from the variety and range that there’s practically a stylish piece of wearable art for anyone. Models paraded the runway in a refreshing palette of bright desaturated hues and updated neutrals — intentionally interpreted in contrast to Kiukok’s signature and popular tales from the dark side. The designer also took inspiration from the National Artist’s use of primary and secondary ochres, from light yellow to brown or red, cobalt blue and raw sienna.
Tan Gan said, “These earthy tones are perfect for the natural materials and dyes that I use on piña, abaca and silk.” As a result, it complements the fabric at its best.
