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.
