Silk Cocoon celebrates mothers

MANILA, Philippines - Silk Cocoon honors mothers with a new collection shown recently at Bravo Filipino’s “Filipina in Focus” in Greenbelt 5.

“This collection is feminine and versatile, elegant and wearable, soft and structured. I wanted the collection to reflect the many facets of a woman, the different roles she has to play, from wife and career woman to, most importantly, being a mother,” explains Jean Goulbourn.

Goulbourn shows off her design acumen in working with local fabrics, from jusi to hand-woven silk, and the romantic calado embroidery, while creating tailored and chic pieces that are wearable for today and timelessly classic at the same time.

The clothes come in structured cuts and shapes each with calado embroidery accents in both expected and unexpected places — a halter dress, perfect natural colored blouses, a structured car coat, an appliquéd bustier dress.

In celebration of Mother’s Day, purchase a Silk Cocoon gift certificate for Mom and receive a 15 to 20 percent discount.

Silk Cocoon is located at G/F, New World Hotel, Makati., with telephone 811-6856.
