MANILA, Philippines - The modern woman is Efren Ocampo’s muse for his holiday collection at SM. “She is my inspiration,” he intimates.
“The modern woman has a very active lifestyle- she works, socializes, and has a family. She actually wants it all, and she needs clothes that are very simple and easy to wear. Uncomplicated clothes are a must for the busy modern woman.”
And even when she dresses for the holidays, there’s a sense of ease underneath all the elegance, and a go-getting vibe that goes with the glam, as seen in Ocampo’s collection.
The clothes are definitely modern free flowing silhouettes in the softest of fabrics – jersey, chiffon, and crepethat hug and drape the body beautifully.
Ocampo also places a lot of emphasis on the shoulders with asymmetrical necklines, strapless bodices, and wide embellished straps.
There are sophisticated little black dresses that exude an air of nonchalance, as well as lame outfits in a playful kaleidoscope of colors that give it a youthful appeal. Embellished with beads, sequins, and rhinestones, these fab dresses are perfect for any holiday party or event.
Efren Ocampo’s holiday collection is available at the Ladies Wear Department of SM stores.
