Flying high with Waipai

FROM COFFEE TO COCKTAILS - Celine Lopez -
Choose your own adventure! From stripes to tropical prints to regal reds and basic blacks ... Waipai is sure to be the city’s next object of desire.

Edi Tekeli, godfather of young Manila’s fashion mafia, is about to get us addicted once again with his newest import from Spain. Waipai is a clothing line with a philosophy which includes the favorite combination of adjectives of Manila’s style mavens – chic, easy and competitively priced. Waipai is a step shy of yet being another fashion phenomenon.

Edi knows what women want. After bringing in Guess in the early ’80s, satiating the hunger of every trenzoid during that denim ravenous era, Edi brought in Mango. Mango, a señorita brand as well, has been a clothing staple as well as obsession for a substantial number of women in the city.

Focusing on what women of today need rather than pursuing the cumbersome ephemeral fashion trends, the Spanish brand aims to complement rather than dictate one’s personal style.

It was as if fate played a hand in January 21’s Waipai launch held at the Rockwell Club Court. Sweaty brows were furrowed as the unexpected metrowide blackout threatened to dampen the event. Fortunately, the lights came back on just in time for Edi, Waipai and his gorgeous bevy of models (not to mention the much anticipated song and gyration number done by sex kitten du jour Patrica Javier, who did not fail to shock the Jesuit priests in the auduence) to add a different kind of heat to tropical Manila.

Waipai will soon open its doors to the public at the Rockwell Mall.
