That sexy rock star look
MANILA, Philippines - The spirit of the ‘80s and ‘90s is still alive and kicking in this generation’s fashion trends. The rock ‘n’ roll style has made a comeback, but with a much fiercer attitude. Madonna and the late great Michael Jackson are timeless icons in terms of their music and, of course, their innovative fashion sense. No wonder designers pay tribute to them by taking their signature outfits and updating them to current trends while retaining the original flair of their individualistic styles.
But these times are luckier for us because with the onset of an androgynous fashion sense, women can also be the rock stars they’ve always wanted to be. Sexy and tough at the same time, CPS Chaps pulls together this aesthetic in its summer 2010 collection.
Rock in a myriad of graphic tees, ripped jeans, and studded or sequined pieces. Graphic tees come in fitted and oversized shapes with several rockin’ designs to choose from. Jeans are distressed magnificently, making the staple item as classic as the people that popularized them. Just throw on a graphic tee and a pair of jeans and you’re all set for the stage. Blouses and dresses are carefully embellished with studs and sequins for that sexy rock star look. Shoulder details reminiscent of Michael Jackson’s trademark military jacket add character to an oversized blouse, turning the otherwise plain and mannish top into a glamorous rocker-chic outfit. Indulge your inner rocker by going all black — tee, vest, and pants altogether.
CPS Chaps ushers in a unique sense of music-inspired fashion. Update your wardrobe now at CPS Chaps boutique on the second level of TriNoma (telephone 915-0234 to 35) and its soon-to-open boutique at Bonifacio High Street.
