Glam up with a collarful snake

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - “Let’s twist, curl and Swatch it!” as The Philippine STAR and Swatch celebrate the Year of the Snake with the Annual Chinese New Year Competition. The design competition is open to all. Participants must submit an actual wrap-around fashion entry inspired by the snake and a Swatch watch.

Maco Custodio, a young designer and a leather craftsman, made a detachable collar using kidskin leather with gold plated studs. His creation which he calls “The Legend of Galuxema” is inspired by two Swatch watches.  The technique with the gold studs takes off from the Swatch New Gent Lacquered Sunray Glam with its golden movement framed by a crystal-set golden dial. The snake form is influenced by the Swatch Chinese New Year watch, The Legend of White Snake. The name of the collar piece “Galuxema” is also inspired by the Filipino folklore Anak ni Zuma si Galema. Maco combined Galema with luxury, hence, the name “Galuxema.” For Maco, people born under the snake sign are stylish, fashionable and have exceptional taste. The glamorous detachable collar may be worn by both male and female.

Join the competition now! The snake fashion is limitless. You may submit one, two or more entries from now until Feb. 2. A participant can only win once, and the higher prize prevails.

Swatch is available at Swatch Shops in SM Megamall, Glorietta 1, Glorietta 4, Greenbelt 5, Trinoma, Alabang Town Center, Ayala Marquee Mall, Angeles, Pampanga, SM Mall of Asia, SM City North EDSA, SM City Davao, Rockwell Power Plant Mall, Greenhills V-Mall, Shangri-La Plaza, Robinsons Place, Ermita, Sta.
