While the much-awaited Philippine Fashion Week promises to amaze with its featured sartorial collections and the tastemakers behind them, it expects to have the photography and tech aficionados in the crowd abuzz in capturing runway looks and behind-the-scene moments using their gadgets, posting their photos at once on their social media sites for the world to see.

Recognizing the need for the industry’s elite to keep their mobile devices performing at peak for real-time audience engagement during Philippine Fashion Week, gadgets accessories company Gosh! has joined Power Mac Center to deliver charging solutions that allow guests to continuously enjoy the event without worrying about their mobile devices running out of battery life.

As the Official Technology Retail Partner of Philippine Fashion Week, Power Mac Center will make possible for the Singapore-based brand to headline the utilitarian function and design elements of its newest lineup of power banks.

“Power Mac Center is delighted to bring Gosh! to the runways of Philippine Fashion Week. With our partnership, we are excited to introduce to the local fashion world stylish accessories loaded up with power capacity to keep their gadgets functioning and allow them to stay online during the high-fashion event,” said Power Mac Center Marketing Director Joey Alvarez.

Established in 2012 to scale up the experience in mobile accessories, Gosh! accentuates one’s persona and style in creating products that are of premium quality, unique, thoughtful, reliable and affordable all at the same time.

Leading the Gosh! Powerbank Series is the JouleSurge +1200mAh Intuitive Vibration Powerbank. This portable charging device is elegantly designed with Electroplated Rims and aluminium body engineered to charge a mobile phone up to 6x its full capacity.

Its compact size, stylish exterior, and ability to provide charging convenience on the go appealed to Rovilson Fernandez, who brought the Gosh! product with him during his recent adventure and research trip in Donsol, Sorsogon. The Filipino model and television host touted his smartphone as one of the important tools of the trade, and without enough power packed in his electronic device, work would come to a standstill.

According to Rovilson, Gosh! extends the battery life of his mobile phone for use in web browsing, writing emails, and editing pictures. The brand also gives his gadget an extra swag with a sleek finish fit for the catwalk.

“Gosh! is a perfect complimentary accessory to the style conscious in need of a functional and fashionable tool for everyday living,” said Rovilson, Power Mac Center brand ambassador for Gosh!.

The Gosh! Powerbanks Series will make a mark on the Philippine Fashion Week runways together with style purveyor Roland Alzate’s holiday collection dubbed “My Automne Hiver 2015.” He describes his latest fashion ensemble as “very Demi-Couture,” with an aesthetic appeal that embodies strong modernity.

“It’s very evident that fashion goes together with technology these days,” remarked Roland. “Big fashion houses continue to open its doors and welcome the great potential of technology in the world of fashion. Fashion’s armour is technology, and they coexist in harmony.”

Roland, who travels the world to draw inspiration and conduct research for his collections, considers a power bank as his lifeline, and the kind of power bank crafted by Gosh! is “almost like tailor made” to fit his creations.

“My 2015 holiday collection is very sophisticated and controlled, distinctive features that are also evident in the Gosh! Powerbanks Series—the elements of design, texture, volume and beauty intertwine well,” added Roland.

Charging your mobile devices has never come with so much style and elegance with Gosh! Powerbanks Series available at all Power Mac Center locations nationwide. For more information, log on to www.powermaccenter.com or visit a Power Mac Center store near you.

Power Mac Center x Philippine Fashion Week 2015

Philippine-Fashionweek

Since 2010  I have been an attendee of Philippine Fashion Week, this year its a different set up at the Aura Atrium level 1 of SM Aura Premier. Now the general public get to see first hand this season of designers can offer. But well you have to register or get invited to be up-close. The event doesn’t provide a number of seats for everybody like before, so you have to really have to come early and get good seats or you end up standing up or hang at the Powermac media center like we did on the second day ( I came from another event that day so we came a bit late, but the people from power mac were really friend and accommodating, they offered us seats and snacks )

This year’s Philippine Fashion Week is a  take is on Technology and Style. Philippine Fashion week 2015 partners with Power Mac Center. Perfect timing for Independence day since the event started on June 12. It all about Showcasing Filipino designers and their creations on the runway.

Day 1  JUNE 12 – Beats by Dr. Dre, CaseMate, Moshi and HappyPlugs

Day 2 JUNE 13 – Gosh, HappyPlugs and KnomoLondon

Most of my fave collections were on the first day. On the second day I also had my favorites as well. So far, this year was my favorite season for Philippine Fashion week because the designs were unique and creatively done. I had an eye on minimalist designs,  easy to wear and twist on the Filipino traditional wear. The designers did a good job in creating proudly Pinoy masterpieces. Phfw pulled it off once again, I would like to personally thank Power Mac Canter for the invite and kind accommodation during the 2 days of the event. Check out the photos I took and the ones I liked.
