MANILA, Philippines - The creations of internationally-renowned Filipino designer Monique Lhuillier and Spanish desugner Adolfo Dominguez are now available at Rustan’s.
Rustan’s has always represented a well-rounded curation of styles — from flowy caftans that call to mind an exotic island sojourn to casual, resort wear for a weekend staycation.
Rustan’s World Wide Wear, Around the World in Fashion highlights the eclectic blend of east meets west with fashion from Asia, Europe and the United States of America. The campaign underscores the global aesthetic and jet-setting lifestyle of the Rustan’s shopper.
For travellers to fashionable cities like New York, Paris, London, Milan and Tokyo, practical yet chic pieces feel right at home in the cosmopolitan streets. Work it in chic convertibles from YAY by Russian designer, Alexandra Yushkova; or the fashion-forward offerings of Adolfo Dominguez, F. by Faconnable and Pedro del Hierro. The Private Labels of Rustan’s is a good place to look, too; expect a fresh selection of the chicest pieces with the re-introduction of Lady Rustan. Finally, accessorize with an iconic purse from Italian fashion house, Fendi, or a versatile handbag from French label, Longchamp.
For exotic excursions to Asia, India and South Africa, look for intricate details, striking colors and bohemian motifs that complement the rich landscape. With Trina Turk, find breezy dresses done in beautifully detailed prints. Lounge in a flowy Natori cover-up for beachside afternoons; and by sundown, slip into an inspired dress from Halston Heritage. If traveling to a local destination, a bohemian Filipiniana ensemble from Patis Pamintuan-Tesoro would be perfection.
Finally, tours to opulent destinations like the Hamptons, Las Vegas, Dubai and Hong Kong aren’t complete without essentials to take you from a daytime social to a fabulous evening fête. For drinks with the country club set, socialize in the clean and casual aesthetic of T Tahari. Leave the men to their business lunch, which calls for tailored silhouettes like the sleek creations of British brands, Thomas Pink and Hackett. Channeling a casual glam look calls for the elaborate designs of Just Cavalli, Juicy Couture and Armani Jeans. For glamorous celebrations, there are the gorgeous gowns of Tadashi Shoji and of the newest addition to Rustan’s roster of global brands, Monique Lhuillier.
