Devious disguises

"Of course, I couldn’t go out on the street in clothes like this, I’d get picked up. Come to think of it, it might be fun."

– Liberace

It was a hip, roaring night with eye-catching costumes from the outlandish to the sublime. Fairies, pirates, cowgirls, belly dancers and other very interesting personalities in ingenious disguises were determined to outshine each other in the year’s most colorful celebration.

The occasion was the annual celebration of Mother-In-Law’s Day… oops! I mean Halloween at Dish in Rockwell’s Power Plant Mall. The definitive hip joint is where the coolest of the cool converge and where the famous can be seen being themselves. Where else can you see Rissa Samson dressed up as a voluptuous Playboy Bunny, Phoemela Baranda as the naughty nurse, Geoff Rodriguez as the mischievous gigolo, Brad Turvey as the black-eyed boxer, Tweetie de Leon-Gonzales as a menacing "Pirate of the Carribean," EJ as the wicked Count Dracula and son Wee-J as the "little count"?

Winners included Rissa Samson for Best Costume, Eazel Don for Jewelmer Pearl of the Night, Edgar Tayag who was dressed up as an army soldier for Best Costumed Dish Staff and Mich Paz for the Most Original Costume, a very realistic "tiyanak." The night wouldn’t have been as successful if it were not for the generosity of Nexcite, Asian Spirit, Fairways & Bluewater, Jewelmer, Mossimo and Picture Company who acted as major sponsors for the thrilling event.

Yes, it’s here at Dish where extraordinary parties are thrown every day and where the hottest acts perform before excited audiences. What’s more, a great variety of cuisine is sure to give every one enough energy to party well into the wee hours! We can’t wait for next year’s Halloween party!

See you all very soon!
