Wearing Vintage

When it comes to wearing vintage, there isn’t just one way to go about it,

You may have your own interpretations of what is right,

as well it should be, but how do you know what’s right for you?

There are some things you can do to create a look

that is uniquely your own and find your vintage groove.

First of all, you need to know what you are dressing for;

do you dress to suit your shape?

To hide your flaws and highlight your best features?

Or are you dressing to emulate a certain era/period?

Or are you choosing vintage solely because of its sustainable fashion perspective?

All of these will play a role in how you choose to dress,

either entirely or as part of a whole; but you need to identify

which of these aspects would be the most important for you.

Vintage, like some styles, can easily be a hit or miss;

it can easily become that retro mistake.

Wearing vintage doesn’t automatically make you look cool.

Nor is dressing in a head to toe fifties outfit would assure that you will look like an icon from Hollywood’s golden age. A retro mistake is just as bad as any other fashion mistake!

“But good vintage fashion is here to stay for a very good reason – it offers unique clothing of the kind of quality that only top end designers provide today.”

So what exactly is VINTAGE? Well it’s definitely not clothing made last 15 years ago, despite what all those 80’s and 90’s revivalists might think.

But it’s still a somewhat broad category, covering a whole lot of under 100 years old (100 and over is officially historic and deserves to be in a museum or hidden deep somewhere).

For many years ‘vintage’ was simply ’second hand’ and frowned upon by the fashion cognoscenti*, but vintage is now so popular that it has become a mini-industry in itself.

The real benefit of buying vintage is not the price, but the distinctive traits of every piece; the cut, and the fabrics. Vintage clothing was built to last. Limited budgets plus expensive manufacturing processes meant that good quality clothes were treasured.

Here are some pictures to inspire you .

*cognoscenti - A person with superior, usually specialized knowledge or highly refined taste; a connoisseur.

FADAL Manila

It’s fact that it is almost always expected for Artists to be competitive, However it is still possible for them to appreciate and encourage each other, and acknowledge the craft of every artist.

This is what inspired Fadal Manila.

It is also what Levenson Rodriguez started with, having that concept mind, he found the first person to talk to regarding it, Happy Andrada, and then the ball started rolling.

Everything just fell into place.

Officers were chosen, members were invited.

We had the pleasure of meeting the officers and some of the members of this newly formed group and I must say, seeing them relate as friends casually but quickly turn into serious business partners or colleagues the minute they talk about something important shows how dedicated they are and how well they work together.

Each had a different personality, and yet they relate with each other fluidly. It disagrees with the idea or connotation with artists.

They all share the same vision of proactively helping one another, which what makes every individual grow and pursue their aspirations.

Fadal’s Manifesto

Fashion Is The Science of Appearances, And It Inspires One With The Desire To Seem Rather Than To Be.

Differentiation and selection - multiple styles; an extensive diversified offer

Flexibility and efficiency - excellent production processes and logistics; sourcing management designed to ensure the highest product quality

Continuity and innovation - enhancement of each designers' distinctive features; application of advanced techniques to the management of glocal (global & local) brands; consistent strategic choices for glocal (global & local) development

Ethics - integrity, fairness and transparency in business, creative and personal relations with all officers and members; total compliance with local/ineternational (if deemed necessary) laws and regulations concerning labour protection

The consumer's central role - never failing to keep in mind that we concretise our clients' dreams

What makes FADAL Manila different is their ability to support each other’s endeavors and not become over competitive. Being all in the same industry, they have found a way to assist and support each other. They Challenge each one to do better and not put someone down to gain something.

Surely we can look forward to hearing more about them soon with the events and promotions they have in store for us!

In the mood for style

www.bloggingprojectrunway.blogspot.com

Do you base your outfits on what you feel?

People usually wear clothes that translate to how they are feeling for that particular day.

Using emotions on dressing up does help in completing that look.

Some even use songs, to help them get in the mood.

One of the things you have to make sure when you dress up or one question you ask is

“Do you feel good about what you’re wearing?”

It is important to be comfortable, however sometimes Fashion can make you go beyond what you may expect.

Some people dread wearing 5 inch stilettos, but some people enjoy wearing them. Because it makes them feel really good about themselves.

So before you go out your door and strut your way to your destination,

Ask yourself if you feel good about what you are wearing. ;)

U've been Schooled at Ascend

This event was entitled YOU’VE BEEN SCHOOLED!

It was a student organization fundraiser, fashion show, and Back to School Party all in one!

The clothes for the fashion show by ANALOG SOUL, POISONBERRY, PAX WEAR, and CORETEMPO SHIRTS were modeled by the students themselves, hailing from the different participating universities and colleges.

Students from the partner organizations -- ATENEO AIESEC and COSA, College of ST. BENILDE Student Council, DE LA SALLE UNIVERSITY ADCREATE Society, MIRIAM COLLEGE CCATT MODELS, and the UNIVERSITY of the PHILIPPINES JPIA – were in full force during the party.

The main feature of the event was an amazing performance from 2 DJs with 4 turntables playing simultaneously! The 2 VIBEMANILA DJs were DJ ARYAN and DJ NIX DAMN P, who were spinning LIVE MIXES and REMIXES of sexy RnB, HIPHOP beats, and rockin’ MASHUP sets. The set was opened and closed by another VIBEMANILA DJ, DJ PALO HAN.

The energy was high all throughout the party, and peaked with an attendance of more than 1200 guests inside the main room of Ascend.

It was a night that school rivalries were set aside, good vibes prevailed, and solidarity took place through music and the performance of 2 VIBEMANILA DJs! DJ ARYAN and DJ NIX DAMN P!
