The metro's top fashion players were out in full force at the first Philippine Fashion Ball last August 15 at the opulent Rigodon Ballroom of the Peninsula Manila. The bash feted some of the most renowned names in Philippine fashion and celebrated the 25th anniversary of the Professional Models Association of the Philippines (PMAP).
Among those recognized for their contributions to the local industry were Inno Sotto for fashion design,Patrick Rosas for make-up and grooming, and Marina Benipayo for modeling. International designerJosie Natori and Philippine Fashion Week founder Joey Espino were also presented with Lifetime Achievement Awards.
As the night's color scheme was black and white, models, actresses, socialites, and other well-heeled ladies eschewed punchy shades and bright hues for the barest neutrals. In the white zone were Georgina Wilson, Liz Uy, Tessa Prieto-Valdes, and Bianca Gonzalez. The women in black, on the other hand, included Anne Curtis (whose dress revealed more skin than we're used to from the actress!), Gretchen Barretto, current PMAP president Phoemela Baranda, and Venus Raj. But whether one favored black or white was not essential, as all women in attendance dazzled in their dresses, regardless of chosen color.
