WEAR MY DESIGN Grand Winners for Ensembles Spring 2013
Want to WEAR MY DESIGN?
With the rise of
Philippine fashion comes the emergence of young, hopeful designers who get the
chance to showcase their talent and creativity to the whole nation.Ensembles
has given this wonderful opportunity to 5 lucky ladies as they won the Wear My
Design Contest for Spring 2013. They were chosen out of almost a hundred entries
submitted by designer hopefuls nationwide. Among the wide array of prizes they
have won, the best part is that they get to live out their dream of being
acknowledged as a designer, and their winning designs worn by ladies all over
the country.
So who are the 5
grand winners of the Wear My Design contest? Ensembles is proud to present the
5 young designers and their winning creations: IONALA by Regina Natividad, BOSS
OF PARADISE by MymyLudovico, FUTURISTIC SPRING by Michelle Sarmiento, PEPLUM
DRESS by Pamela Victoria and ANDREI by April Joy Dela Cruz.Being no strangers
to the world of fashion, 4 out of 5 of these gals have been fashion design
students. When asked if she had a hard time coming up with a concept, Pamela,
the only one who didn’t take up a design course, said, “Not quite. I just thought of a concept that would fit
a stylish woman in a corporate world and something that is understated yet
elegant and would add a stylish twist to a normal office outfit.”
Surely, all the hard work and effort
these designers have put into their creations were all born from an
inspiration. For Regina ,
it took a sentimental purpose for her to get that creative spark. What was her
inspiration? “My daughter who passed away. Her name is Iona ,
which is why Iolana is the name of my entry”, she said. When it comes to the
obstacles they encountered, meeting the deadline was a common problem. “It just
so happened that I had other commitments to do at that time, that’s why I ended
up submitting the garments on the very last day of submission”, answered April.
What made these ladies win was because
they captured the essence of what an Ensembles woman embodies. “One who is
confident, knows the trends and can carry it well. She can stand on her own and
can stand out at the same time”, as described by Mymy. Also, they got to play
out one of the key aspects of Ensembles, which is versatility. “The dress can
be worn from day to night. Just put on a blazer for work matched with stunning
stilettos then take the blazer off for night outs”, Michelle said, pertaining
to her dress. Wearing one of the winning
designs is CarminaVillaroel who just recently got married to longtime partner
ZorenLegaspi. When asked what she thought of the winning styles? "Wow,
these are from non-professional designers? They look flattering and practical,
perfect for me and my busy schedule!"
The winning creations are to be released
as part of the Spring 2013 Collection of Ensembles and is scheduled to hit the
stores nationwide this February 2013.So, do you think you have what it takes to
