The Café Society Fashion Show staged by the Friends for Cultural Center of the Philippines (FCCP) at the Manila Polo Club in Makati City was a surefire hit. Evoking the laissez-faire lifestyle of the café society of the 1930s, the fashion show featured the stunning creations of Jun Jun Cambe, a seasoned fashion designer who has been working for three and a half decades. The stunning members of FCCP walked the runway alongside professional models as they showcased Jun Jun’s marvelous pieces. The event, organized by the tireless FCCP president Nonie Basilio alongside Café Society Fashion Show committee director-in-charge Baby De Jesus and chairman Terry Tambunting, raised funds for the benefit of FCCP’s talented scholars in the performing and visual arts fields. Congratulations to the Friends for Cultural Concerns of the Philippines for another successful fashion show!
