Efren Ocampo says white and green are the new black

MANILA, Philippines -  In an antidote to the season’s neon colors, Efren Ocampo embraces white and green — as the new black — in his latest collection for SM.

Purity and minimalism, after all, never cease to mesmerize designers over and over again, and Ocampo works wonderfully with white. There are dreamy soft white chiffon dresses and exquisitely embroidered pieces, as well as ’70s-inspired frocks with crochet detailing. White is the perfect alternative when it comes to creating a minimalist and perfectly polished look.

Green, on the other hand, is the color of nature — fresh grass, blooming flowers, and festive fruits. Ocampo picks the tangiest lemon and lime green shades to create a zesty citrus collection that will leave others, as they say, truly green with envy.

The Efren Ocampo collection is available at selected Ladies Wear sections of the SM Department Store.
