The launch of THE IMELDA COLLECTION (II)


There are some really nice pieces from the collection which I spied, but of course by the time the night was over, I could no longer find those pieces– they got sold *and I bawled, being the sourgraping puss that I am 😀 guffaw*.

I loved the whole setup of the exhibit hall, where each collection was carefully categorized. The Black collection was my favorite. The pieces there were fantastic. That black coral necklace with citrine, amethyst, pearl, and an antique cross garnered the most interest, I reckon. Meanwhile, I’ve had my eye on that magnifying glass necklace in silver. Mrs.M would carry that mini magnifying glass topped with a little bear (limbs moving and all) with her in her bag, in case she reads something with small fonts 🙂 I love the significance of that piece and I swore to myself that I will take that necklace by the end of the night *muwahahaha kleptomaniac?! or freeloader?! Hahahaha*

The other elaborate tableaux were just as remarkable– a product of hard work by the team of Zenas Pineda & Co. (+63917) 526-8687. The flexible snake bangle with the crystal butterfly charm was gone before I got to it. Ah well. That was pretty too, with a little Imelda shoe charm 🙂

Seen at the event were Shanghai- based Singaporean beauty SherLeC with uber blogger BryanB
BorgyM

RuffaB was also there to personally congratulate Mrs.M
Jet Set Magazine’s LizaIC was also there– psst hags, by the way, get your copy of Jet Set Magazine now– it’s out in your fave newsstands 🙂 I also met some amigas de mama and some friends like WC *who looked gorgeous!*, SL *with that killer Hermes Kelly in cyclamen*, CT *who just had her 2nd baby a few months ago and looked svelte*, BerryO *very pretty in black with that very pretty Gucci bag*. CecilVS was also there with megastylist MichaelS, beautiful couple Norman and AstrudC, as well as designers MichD and PueyQ.

Also seen were KaraT (who was responsible for Imeldific logo of The Imelda Collection :D) flanked by VirgilP and interior designer MigsR.

At the end of the night, everyone from the team including Ms.C, Ms.Z, and Ms.Y had let out a huge sigh of relief. Weeks of nonstop meetings have finally come to a grand end. ImeeM, who was impeccably dressed in an intricately appliqued magenta terno coat by Choc and Yvette Religioso (+63920) 907-9455, sat with us and exclaimed with laughter, “what a week!” And indeed it was! And I was just glad I had to privilege to work with such pros 🙂 To the team, thank you very much for the opportunity!!

P.S. DaphP’s beautiful mustard coat dress was made by Joey Samson, (+63918) 959-2541.

It’s back to BAGS tomorrow, hags!! Purse ban is officially OVER 😀 *wooOOHoOoOo!!!*
