The utilitarian look was unleashed recently when denim brand Petrol Jeans launched its Fall/Winter 2012 collection at the SMX Convention Center. The collection was inspired by muscle cars and characterized by rust, grease and dirt details.
Hosted by Borgy Manotoc and Isabel Roces, the event was graced by an eclectic mix of prominent lifestyle, entertainment and media personalities including Raymond Gutierrez, Divine Lee, Shamcey Supsup, Survivor finalist Kiko Rustia and Sari Yap.
A fashion show displayed the brand’s vintage-themed collection for both men and women. The show was enhanced by a 3D presentation as models strutted on stage wearing denim jackets, short-sleeved shirts, shorts and the signature denim pants emphasizing the brand’s latest innovation.
More than just a clothing name, Petrol Jeans is a lifestyle symbol of self-empowerment for individuals who want to stand out. In particular, the brand’s “raw empowerment” campaign is all about garnering enough strength to be one’s true self in a society that dictates what is acceptable and not.
The brand reinforces pride and confidence by highlighting utilitarian wear with a trendy touch.

A decade of music for Christian Bautista
To have lasted 10 years in the music industry is proof enough of one’s staying power in the business. This accomplishment is a cause for celebration for multi-awarded singer Christian Bautista.
Skechers supports Christian as he celebrates his 10th year in the entertainment limelight. He will be reliving a decade of his career with a night of songs in a concert series called X Class slated on Oct. 6, 7, 12, 13 and 14 at the Meralco Theater in Pasig City.
This is a homecoming of sorts for Christian, as it was in Meralco Theater where he first made his professional debut in the play The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Reminiscent of a play, Christian’s X Class concert is expected to be not just about songs, but a visual spectacle for an extraordinary concert experience. He’ll be joined by surprise guests.
Skechers, which has been supportive of Christian since the beginning of his career, remains one of the singer’s strongest allies. The brand fits his laid-back, casual style as it is comfortable and goes well with his usual jeans and tee get-up. These days, you can find Christian wearing Skechers GOrun fitness performance shoes at the gym and during light, casual days when he’s busy with rehearsals and travel or just chilling out. Aside from Skechers GOrun, Christian also goes for Skechers boat shoes and sneakers.
