As promised, presenting Metrowear Rocks The Runway! For those who don’t know, Metrowear is one of the most prestigious fashion shows in the country. This year, Metrowear’s participating 20 designers were grouped under 3 unique themes: Aquatic, La Dolce Vita and 1950s Couture. It was really exciting to see what the designers came up with because aside from the theme assigned to them, they had to incorporate their own interpretation of sustainable and eco-friendly fashion. Needless to say, all the designers’ collections were amazing! Sucks that I wasn’t able to capture all of them but I managed to take a few so that you can experience the fashion show as well.
Imagine these beautiful designs accompanied by music from your favorite rock stars–Wolfgang, Callalily, Kjwan and Rico Blanco. It’s not everyday you see high fashion rock out like this! Congratulations Metrowear! Awesome show as usual!

Uhm, do you have any idea on how to get tickets for the PFW? Cause me and my friend have been planning to go there for Penshoppe’s, but we have no idea how to get tickets. Please message me! It would really be a big help. Thanks! :)

Awesome, Unique,Fabulous designs from awesome designers!! Filipinos always has this creativity in them don’t you think!? =)
Wish I could wear some of their designs [If I was tall enough to be model wahihi] =)))
I have a question.. did you ever experience people who look at you head-to-toe because of your look? or even sometimes giggle, when they saw you wear something quite different from the usual? [nakakainis lang kasi parang first time lang nakakita ng tao X( ]
*Hope you can reply and maybe give some advice/tip??
Thank you very much MORE POWER!!! =D
Thanks Zarah! Of course, there will always be people like that. Don’t mind them! The compliments are far greater than those naman so focus on the positive :) Filipino designers are amazing!
Wow, I am speechless!! Those aqua-blue dresses are simply amazing!! Lovely photos.. thank you for sharing them! :D
My pleasure Anaivilo!
who was your favorite?
So hard to decide! I love so many!!!! The finale piece maybe?
Can anyone just go and watch? Where’s the venue of this fashion show? =))
It’s by invite only I think :) It was held at Edsa Shangri-la Hotel :)
Awwwww I always wanted to go to these shows…
One day! :)
WOW. I must say, our designers really have what it takes to compete with International designers. I just don’t understand why they’re not given a chance. :( Thank God for Michael Cinco, Monique Lhuillier, and Furn One for somehow paving the way for other designers. Although, despite seeing a lot of creations from different designers, Alexander Mcqueen still stand out for me. He is SO DIFFERENT. A visionary indeed. And now with Sarah Burton taking charge of the brand, they still never fail to amaze me.
I love Mark Tumang and Cary Santiago’s creations! :D
I know but we’re getting there! :) The world is starting to notice us! I’m sure we’ll get to that point especially with the amount of talent we have in the Philippines, it’s bound to happen!
Wow!! love all the collection <3
