And last Sunday, he marks his 20th year in the Philippine fashion industry and birthday celebration , recognized by “Fashion Show Samsung Metrowear Icon: Rajo Laurel.”  The tribute show features a wide variety of new collections, playing with hues of whites, blacks grays and reds – Everything a Rajo is notable for. From evening wear, bridal and couture, every technique ( cuts, drapes, sequins ) is brilliantly incorporated as well.

Likewise, a definite highlight is his expression of shapes, using hoops and cable wires that are sophisticatedly accented. I can’t further describe how it was executed beautifully, but the images says it all!

And of course, I am also wearing an RTW classic piece by Mr. Rajo Laurel himself. I’ve had it for quite a while now and I expect it to settle with me for a lifetime! Again, Congratulations and Happy Birthday Mr. Rajo Laurel! 
 
It’s exciting to see who will be the next Metrowear Fashion Icon When in Manila!
