First PRIVE Fashion Awards Slated!

Last Thursday, I was invited to an intimate gathering at Member Only to have the first look of the nominees for the First PRIVE Fashion Awards.

If you don’t know, PRIVE is known as one of the most successful fashion party series in the country which started in 2009 by Members Only with MEGA and Channel [V] Philippines as their partners.

In this party, Filipino designers are invited to showcase their latest collections not through a runway show but by real people, or designer muses to wear their collections in the usual nightlife scene. The muses are asked to walk side-by-side with the designer as he go around and socialize.

This year 2011, the owners of Members Only, with partners MEGA, Channel [V] Philippines and organizers Leung-De Leon decided to pay tribute to the designers who have been part of this tradition and put up the first PRIVE Fashion Awards that will commence on March 30,  2011 only at Members Only.

Several awards will be given including Best Designer Male and Female, Best Jewelry Designer, Best Accesories Designer, Best Bag Designer, Best Muse and a Bloggers Choice awards will be given to the first PRIVE Fashion Awards.

Some of the nominee names for the PRIVE Fashion Awards that stuck in my head were Tweetie De-Leon as Best Jewelry Designer and Anne Curtis as Best Muse.
