It was sad that there was no runway for the Philippine Fashion Week Spring Summer 2012 Ready to Wear Collection but an empty SMX Function Room 4 center hall and its black walls and floors. It would have been nice if there was some “runway” so to speak but the show must go on.
For PFWSS2012 RTW show designers Emi Alexander Englis, Harley Ruedas, Jian Lasala, John Guarnes, Joyce Pilarsky, Louis Claparols, Mike Lavarez, Nixon Marquez, Reian Mata, Ricky Abad, Simon Ariel Vasquez, and Ziggy Savella was featured. There were lots of flowy fabrics of sheer and lace and a lot of aqua.
My favorite designs were from Louis Claparols.
