Renowned fashion designer Jor-El Espina marked another milestone in his career. The visionary artist recently celebrated his 20th year in the industry with a fashion show presented by Philippine Financial & Inter-Industry Pride (PFIP) entitled “Design Anthologies.” The grand ballroom of Shangri-La Fort was brimming with guests supporting excellence and inclusivity.
Jor-El’s 60-piece collection was a style narrative showcasing his artistic journey through the years.
Jewel tones and metallic pieces filled the runway with contemporary silhouettes showcasing Espina’s aesthetic and signature detail.
Both women’s and menswear were paraded in ultra luxe fabrication, outstanding craft and noteworthy design. Breathtaking from afar but priceless up close and personal, each piece was precious with a story to tell.
Completing the look were fine jewelry by DiaGold, chic statement accessories by Arnel Papa and stunning stylish footwear by Parisian and Salvatore Mann.
The grand occasion was an unforgettable night of high glamor presented by award-winning host Bianca Valero.
The successful event was graced by Manila’s well-heeled, fashion and social set, business sector and Iloilo’s young crème de la crème. It was a dazzling celebration of fashion, music and the performing arts but most importantly a tribute to the pride community.
