PFW Holiday '11

All these years I get to watch Philippine Fashion Week from a far and now I got this close! Too bad I wasted my 3 tickets to 3 shows. I know kill me. Something I've always wanted yet wasn't able to fully grasp it. Anyway I got to be a designer's assistant! For the Luxewear show last May 13 '11. Best Friday the 13th ever!

Met Sarah Meier! At first I hesitated if I should come up to her. But what the heck! I looked like a stupid fangirl which I am! I asked for an autograph (oh god I'm 19 and asked for an autograph). She was like are you for real? And I'm yeah I'm sorry! So I got a letter and she gamely had a photo with me. The one from my cam is blurry but the PFW TV official photog got one just don't know where to get it!
This was from May 2 '11 it's a male modeling fitting. So uhmm.. yeah.. MALE. :">

Here's a little backstage action. My designer mentor Ronaldo Arnaldo is re-fitting Ria Bolivar for her finale dress.
This was all the model line up for that show! 15 designers showcased 10 outfits that night. Benjie Manuel, Delby Bragais, Edwin Uy, Jay Sustiguer, John Guarnes, Julius Tarog, Kat Corpus, Melvin Lachica, Nicky Martinez, Nolie Vineza, Roel Rosal, Ronaldo Arnaldo, Santi Obcena, Simon Ariel Vasquez and Tina Daniac.

For our models we had JASMINE MAIERHOFER! Stephany, Erika (who became sort of my friend coz' I helped her in like her so many outfit changes), Julianne, Paula, Honey, Rodina, Ann, Emerald and Ria Bolivar.

It was such a great experience and I loved every second of it. I really want to do it again. So much rush there. Dressing up a model is like dressing up Barbie! Like really! Put on her dress, her shoes, a bit of accessories and make sure her hair stays fine. Playing with so many dresses! Shoes from Rusty Lopez and with Ronaldo he had gloves! Wish I took better photos. Coz photos weren't really allowed so I just sneak it whenever.

Oh my, I was there too. Sarah's really pretty. When she walked into the lobby, I was struck because she was so strikingly simple. No heavy make-up, no accessories (though I love the chunky shoes), just plain black ensemble but she's really beautiful. *Fangirl mode*.=)

I know right! And she's surprisingly thin! I mean on TV she looks normal already but then she's still very model thin! And she can rock combat boots!

Haha. Yes! She was seated in front of us, that's why throughout the show, I kept on staring at her from time to time. She's a mom na, right? Oh, Jasmine Maierhofer's pretty as well.:)
