Deconstructed fashion, decoded
The night unveiled its fourth annual roster of Preview Best Filipino Fashion Designers — five names shaping what ‘Filipino design’ means right now.
1. KYLIE Verzosa brought romance to deconstruction in Renz Reyes, wearing a sheer white dress accented with sculptural floral appliqués, ribbon-like straps and layered textures. 2. Donny Pangilinan relaxed the traditional suit in an oversized black pinstripe blazer by Jerome Lorico, defined by dropped shoulders and an effortless silhouette. 3. Vice Ganda brought the drama in a pink and barbie coded magenta strapless gown by Anthony Ramirez, finished with a sweeping train. 4. Michelle Dee wore a Proudrace gown that gave deconstruction a sharp, architectural edge, pairing a fitted navy silhouette with cutouts, contrasting panels, pale-blue accents and a metallic belt. 5. Kyline Alcantara made a statement in a blue ensemble with a directional, dimensional pattern that gave the streamlined silhouette a sense of movement.
