So very British, So Debenhams

Famed UK brand Debenhams ushers in its latest collection of designer and in-house brands.

For men, there’s Future Urban, capturing Italian chic that is contrasted with a modern retro look. Future Urban 2 is an edgier and more hip version that features graphic or hooded tees paired with formal trousers and accessorized with knit scarves. New Teddy is another style in the men’s collection that is sleek and clean, definitely for the working man. For the quintessential gentleman, the Heritage look showcases a new take on the three-piece suit. Suits are paired with knit or silk scarves for an eccentric and modern twist. Meanwhile, the Nirvana look takes its inspiration from ’90s grunge. It is more laidback, featuring plaid shirts and denims with layering.

For Women, Wartime Glamour takes its key looks from the ‘40s. Coats are featured alongside formal day and eveningwear matched with skinny belts and minimum jewelry. Manipulated shift dresses and smart tailoring show off modern clean lines matched with statement jewelry that take any outfit easily from day to night. A boho influenced look makes up the Folktales trend. Layered printed chiffon paired with chunky knits and velvet dominate this style. The Dark Romance look is defined with its black and cream palette coupled with lace ruffles and chains. With a strong Tudor and gothic inspiration, this style features a range of sexy daywear in the form of high neck dresses and tailored suits paired with a medley of necklaces that together make up an eclectic yet chic look.

Boys can have a great time this holiday season with bright pop colors on fine knitted cardigans, graphic tees, sweats and playsuits. Key pieces for girls this season are denim skirts, fuchsia pink macs, and satin or corduroy party dresses.

Debenhams is located at the third level of Rustan’s Makati, at the third level of Shangri-La Plaza Mall and at the second level of TriNoma.
