                    [Summary] => A designer who works under the principles of simple elegance is faced with the challenge of making sure that his silhouettes are sleek and impeccable.


Designer Ito Curata’s workmanship stands out as seamless and fluid, thanks to the designer’s attention to detail. Curata insists on cutting all the patterns and fabric himself – a practice that many senior designers have long forgotten. The result is a collection of impeccability that can be passed on from generation to generation.

                    [Summary] => Ladies, look at these photographs! Any fashionista  worth her salt will sense with this fantastic collection that a new king has arrived! 


Ito Curata’s designs are fluid, his execution precise (he is one of the few couturiers who insist on cutting each pattern himself) and his taste in fabric and accessories–flawless!


Curata is involved in every aspect of the fashion process–even photographing the pictures himself in the beautiful ancestral homes of Batangas.

                    [Summary] => A designer who works under the principles of simple elegance is faced with the challenge of making sure that his silhouettes are sleek and impeccable.


Designer Ito Curata’s workmanship stands out as seamless and fluid, thanks to the designer’s attention to detail. Curata insists on cutting all the patterns and fabric himself – a practice that many senior designers have long forgotten. The result is a collection of impeccability that can be passed on from generation to generation.

Ito Curata’s designs are fluid, his execution precise (he is one of the few couturiers who insist on cutting each pattern himself) and his taste in fabric and accessories–flawless!


Curata is involved in every aspect of the fashion process–even photographing the pictures himself in the beautiful ancestral homes of Batangas.
