Metro's Fashion Finds: Best Fashion Concept of 2009

by MARK PILLOS

BLACK TIERED STRAPLESS GOWN; SHORT TULLE OVERLAY BY JOHN HERRERA

Since time immemorial, there was only Darkness ... Ebony vacuum creeps in every space...There was no room for nothing but the emblem of death ...

CREME GOWN WITH BUTTERFLY SLEEVES AND BALL SKIRT BY CJ CRUZ

Then there was Light ... The allegory of life ... Born to battle the wickedness of Darkness ...

GREEN HANDPAINTED DRESS BY PUEY QUINONES

The war between the two was the birth of  Nature ... She was the subject for competition ...

PEACOCK PRINTED SKIRT BY PUEY QUINONES; YELLOW GOWN WITH CUTOUTS BY JEROME LORICO, LONG VEST BY PUEY QUINONES

Vegetation seethes in trying to get a grip of the coveted Nature ... Sun, the Light herself, nurtures Nature with her caressing beams ...

WHITE STRAPLESS DRESS WITH RUFFLED SKIRT BY VEEJAY FLORESCA; BLACK CAPE AND SKIRT BY JAMES REYES

Like day and night, Light and Dark get their own victories and failures. They can never be winner at the same time. If one wins, one loses like life and death. It is not about passion. It is not about will. It is about DESTINY  ...
