Party T[V]

MANILA, Philippines - Channel [V] pioneered as Asia’s premiere party channel. When it first aired I also discovered my first SEA crush, Nadia. Today, in its full reformatted spirit, the looks are hotter than ever. Cat Arambulo, the fashion director (yes, they take fashion that seriously there!), gives us an inside look on how to do VJ style anywhere!

A quick cig with Cat on style:

YSTYLE: What makes an outfit pop on TV?

Personality.

What are the most flattering styles?

Bold colors, custom-made Viktor jeans and designer dresses.

How do you keep the looks varied yet very channel [V]?

By flaunting each VJ’s assets and enhancing their personal style — Channel [V] style.

What is Channel [V] style?

Less is more.

What are the challenges that you face?

Deciding which designer to use because they all have fab outfits!

What are the fresh trends we’ll be seeing on your Vjs?

Layered and structured clothes, designer outfits, fur, hats and dark colored nails for fall/winter ‘09.
