Familiar names in the business and fashion world gathered together to
celebrate the beautiful culture of Mindanao fashion at Okada Manila last May 9
showcasing the creations of renowned designer, Renee Salud. The event was a
night of glamour and culture as Mindanao fashion took the spotlight, with
stunning creations and traditional influences on display.
Anna Magkawas, CEO of Luxe
Beauty and Wellness Group, makes her runway debut for Mama
Renee Salud Mindanao Tapestry II and it was nothing short of awe-inspiring.
In a recent interview, Anna shared her feelings of nervousness and pride,
stating, "It feels surreal! Grabe yung kaba ko pero sobrang
nakakaproud lalo na nung nakita ko yung mga kasama ko mag-ramp. Yung first time
ko magsuot ng gown ni Mama Renee tapos salang agad sa runway!"
The lady boss behind popular Luxe Slim products was invited by Okada's VP of
Marketing, Ms. Cielo, to model a gown by renowned designer Mama Renee. "Nagulat
nga ako kasi wala ako idea kung paano ba ang mangyayari basta sabi magmodel daw
ako ng gown ni Mama Renee," Anna shared.
She opened up about her last-minute preparations for a recent event. Despite
her busy schedule, she shared insights into how she managed to navigate
fittings and rehearsals just in time for the show.
"Nakakatawa kasi ako yung last na nagpasukat for the gown due to
busy sched. Ako din yung last na nagfitting, the night before the show na. Then
on the day buti na lang may rehearsal kahit papaano nagkaroon ako ng idea ano
yung magiging flow ng show."
Renowned businesswoman Magkawas recently shared insights into her personal
fashion style, revealing a strong preference for classic elegance. She
emphasized her love for neutral colors and conservative designs that are not
too revealing. In particular, she expressed her satisfaction with a gown
created by designer Mama Renee, highlighting its classy and flattering
qualities.
The fashion industry in the Philippines is a unique blend of tradition and
modernity, with designers using indigenous textiles and traditional techniques
to create stunning and culturally significant pieces.
According to Anna, a Filipino fashion enthusiast, the creativity and passion
of Filipino designers are truly something to be proud of. Each region in the
Philippines has its own rich design heritage passed down through generations,
showcasing the ingenuity and cultural significance of Filipino fashion. This
combination of tradition and modern design has resulted in pieces that are
truly unique, reflecting the pride and creativity of Filipino designers.
