I rarely ever go to Philippine designers– not because I don’t want to, but because I can’t seem to find the time to drop by their ateliers for fittings etc. I have been exposed to all the local designers from the time I was working as a managing editor for Metro Weddings Magazine, but back then I never really thought of having clothes made by them– I wanted to save my money for bags 😀 *hehehe* So back then, I’ve never owned a dress/ gown that I paid for myself– I have mom to thank for my Joe Salazar gowns.
But this year, I decided to try out 2 well- known designers– Jun Escario and Inno Sotto. And the pieces I had made turned out so well– I looove them!! I still have a few designers on my mind, but for now, let me write this entry to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Inno Sotto. I never forgot Inno Sotto– especially after his collection was featured on Elsa Klench’s show years ago *has it been over 10 years already???*
Before you go on, I must apologize for the terrible photo quality. It’s unacceptable 🙁 I didn’t use the flash of my camera so the photo quality was really compromised 🙁 *Sorry, still experimenting with this new camera*

I wish I could’ve taken more photos of the show, but the one of the “ushers” of the show actually came to me and said not to take photos hahaha *woops*.
After the show, my friend and I went to Sofitel for late dinner, and we took the opportunity to take photos in spiral staircase 😀
This was great because I finally let my train “go” 🙂 I wore an Inno Sotto skirt with my Copine shirt, and wore my new rose quartz hoop earrings made by my friend Rodina Chua- Velasco for
Accessory Lab 🙂 *My children think I looked like Jane of Tarzan hahaha*
Enjoy this entry! I promise to take better photos next time! I am honestly so disappointed with my photos! 🙁
Congratulations Inno Sotto and special thanks to Renee Puno and her wonderful team! 🙂
