MANILA, Philippines - It’s not just what you wear; it’s also what you carry that makes you fashionable when you travel. It is good to invest in quality luggage because it will take you places.
The Bric’s collections, the choice luggage amongst jet-set celebrities, have been a staple travel companion of celebrities. In fact, Hollywood actor George Clooney’s wife Amal Alamuddin was spotted prior to their Venice wedding with an ultra-light four-wheel Bellagio Spinner in Olive color.
Other stars who have been spotted travelling with their Bric’s include Matthew McConaughey, Jessica Alba, Jared Leto, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton, Kristin Davis, Johnny Depp, Kristen Bell and Robert Downey Jr. among others.
In Manila, Bric’s launched its Fall/Winter 2014 collection at its Shangri-La Plaza East Wing and SM Aura Premier stores recently. The new arrivals feature the core Life collection highlighting a new color: rhododendron, which embodies Bric’s ongoing commitment to fuse tradition with innovation, functionality and ruggedness with style. The collection is made from Moustang (a waterproof material made from matte PVC with cotton-viscose flock micro suede) and trimmed with fine vegetable-tanned leather.
The collection also features Roma structured duffel and handbags made from high-quality Italian-made PVC and are available in Bordeaux and pine colors.
The unisex Oceano luggage collection, made from polycarbonate material, features bold red, silver and blue colors in shiny finish while the other colors are finished with a textile effect, to add to the wide collection of travel necessities offered by Bric’s.
The ‘70s-inspired Magellano luggage and bags for men, manufactured in Italy and Europe are made from the finest drummed faux leather fabric with coarse grain that delivers second to none impact resistance.
The crown jewels of the Fall/Winter 2014 collection, the Life Pelle luggage and bags are made from genuine vegetable tanned leather from Tuscany. The color of the leather comes from natural extracts gathered from the tree of mimosa, quebracho and chestnut. This allows the leather to age without spoiling and highlights the “naturalness” of the product.
