Say "I do" in Style

- Bobit S. Avila -

CEBU, Philippines - A new season into a new endeavor, the ecstasy of getting engaged is a very intimate thing yet a multi billion dollar industry. Modern brides recently have discovered two things about this business. Designers offer many wonderful choices (1) and the devil is in the details and one misstep can soon turn any blushing bride into well, bride-zilla!(2)

“Appropriately, that's where the designers featured here put their focus for the new bridal collection they showed recently, which are available upon request in approximately three months’ time. "It's not based on trends; it's what I like," one prominent bride said of the silk crepe frocks in styles that merged the unconstructed silhouettes of the twenties with eighteenth-century filigree prints from Cary Santiago. Upon focus when studied closely, offerings from Arcy Gayatin, Albert Arriba, Protacio, Barbie Alvez, Edwin Ao, William Manahan, Marichu Tan, Jun Escario, Philip Tampus, Ren Manabat, Jojo Romoff, Yvonne Quisumbing and Philip Rodriguez, the patterns revealed themselves to be painstakingly detailed and bedecked with dreamy elements, along with rosettes, delicate silks and chiffons, and other desirable motifs.““There wasn't anything here that looked like it lacked inspiration The It factor to become a bridal sensation is always present, but the peek a boo ash grey wedding dress by Wendell Quisido did key into a current fashion fad. For that reason, it's a good bet where any modern, smart and stylish bride to be will invest their money. And that's most likely to the featured designers here. Bravissimo! (FREEMAN)
