PHILIPPINE FASHION COALITION
Membership Invitation
The fashion industry is now at a standstill. Now is the time for us to speak as one voice and unite in solidarity with an alliance that will represent the entire Philippine Fashion industry. There is strength in numbers and if we all stand and speak as one, we can show the entire nation that TOGETHER, we can move forward, rise above the challenges, and help revive the fashion industry. As proven by the current climate, we will be heard better by the public and the private sectors if we move forward, TOGETHER, as an industry. This is open to ALL Filipino fashion professionals from Apparel & Accessory Designers, Models, Model Agencies, Fashion Manufacturers, Filipino Brands and Retailers, Artisan Brands, Fashion Press and Bloggers, Fashion photographers, Fashion Show producers, Hair and Make Up Stylists and Collection Stylists.

We used to have a garments-and-textiles industry. But we lost out to foreign competition.

I remember growing up to Crispa, both the shirt brand and the PBA team.
Sustainable fibers also seem to be on the wane – pina, abaca, seda (silk), etc. I remember an American Vogue editorial on the subject. Christy Turlington wore a trench coat made from pineapple fabric; the article said it was a “Japanese innovation”. And Japan makes “nata de coco” now, too….
Jearson Demavivas must be commissioned to do uniforms for the BSP (Boy Scouts of the Philippines), PAL, & CebuPac. Look at Cathay Pacific’s from the 1980’s, done by YSL & Pierre Cardin (I think). He must convince the weavers of “inabel” & “t’nalak” to veer away from staid and go EXUBERANT with apps for fabric patterns…. There was a recent fashion show which involved Andrada among…. Aya Abesamis wore a pantsuit in “paisley-python” print. BRILLIANT! 🙂
