These dresses can be worn too outside of the beach while chilling with your friends. One would definitely be a glamorous and fabulous fashionista when wearing any of these pieces from Bailey’s La Playa de Moda collection.

Renan’s Collection

My collection is called Mama Carine. Irreverently chic! I drew my inspiration for this collection from Carine Roitfeld, former editor-in-chief of French Vogue.That tousled hair and dark smoky-eyes, she is one of the most powerful women inthe whole of “fashiondom”. She evokes power and authority. She’s unapologetically subversive with her usually sex-induced ideas. Influential,dominant and highly-significant for most designers, eternal muse of Tom Ford,and for my second collection for Hot Young Designers, she is my woman- clad inmy fetish-inspired multi-buckled corset belts; zip-up miniskirts; body-hugging stretch dresses…this collection is power dressing with lots of female charm.

Marc’s Collection

For my 2nd Collection, I was inspired by my friends from the Fashion Institute if the Philippines. Since I knew that New Year was coming, I thought of using colors and prints for mycollection. I was never really a “color” fanatic. I was inspired by Mikee Andrei and Paris Bagasao's use of color, and I was inspired by the movie "Fatal Attraction", a 1987 American Thriller starring Glenn Close. I was so inspired by her character that I made my own story. Pink and Violet arethe main colors in my collection - colors that I never imagined using.

Jackie’s Collection

“The Unusual Marauder" by Jackie Maronilla Abueg puts emphasis on minimalist feministic ideals. Her design philosophy of simple and effortless brings out a subdued glow to those caught with any ensemble. By playing with materials that would usually suit trousers, Jackie's collection this quarter decides to go unconventional and transform them into practical, effortless and chic apparel. Jackie believes that her designs should bring out the essence ofa woman, this second collection "The Unusual Marauder" focuses on defying the typical image of what a woman should be and how a woman should dress. It's about time that these unusual marauders are set on the loose!
