Las Casas pays homage to local weaves with Flores De Mayo

BAGAC, BATAAN — Close to 50 seasoned Filipino fashion designers over the week showcased their undeniable creativity of Filipino ingenuity and beauty at Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar during the Flores de Mayo held in Las Casas here.

Dubbed with the theme, “Flores de Mayo: A grandiose showcase of Philippine artistry”, it pays tribute to the Blessed Virgin Mary as it is believed that she brings beneficial rain making flowers bloom every dry season.

The grand showcase of the “festival of all festivals” was made possible in partnership with Designers Circle Philippines (DCP).

Being true to its core mission, Las Casas – the heritage hotel and destination – paid homage to the traditional Flores de Mayo while adding its own touch of grandeur to it.

The collection of restored heritage houses became a fitting background for Filipino talent and creativity with its “Sagala sa Las Casas” featuring the traditional weaves that were transformed into stunning modern pieces.

Putting great emphasis on the ingenuity of young designers, the festivities started with the “reinas” parading in their fabulous gowns.

After the grand parade, Las Casas recognized five designer standouts and their muses. La Bella de Las Casas or Most Beautiful Face was awarded to designer Ira Baylon and muse Jam Trias, La Estrella de Las Casas or The Star of Las Casas given to designer Roy Aquino and muse Simone Nadine Bornilla, La Rosa de Las Casas or The Rose of Las Casasgiven to designer Joemel Calma and muse Jennifer Castro,and La Perlita de Las Casas or The Pearl of Las Casas was awarded to designer Rich Sabinian and muse Bianca Denise Garcia.
