This year's Red Charity Gala featured the work of Jojie Lloren. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Gala co-chair Tessa Prieto-Valdes fluttered soundlessly across the room, her salmon-colored cut-out platforms soft against the carpet (though her presence was loud and unmistakeable as ever), as she welcomed all her guestsloyal patrons, friends and supporters of a worthy cause. <\/p>\n
I want you all to get smashed so that youll become more generous, she quipped. <\/p>\n
A lavish affair, an exquisite cause <\/p>\n
Now on its sixth year, the Red Charity Gala has become a staple in social events. <\/p>\n
The suit gown makes a frequent appearance. From L-R: pieces by Vania Romoff, Malou Leonio, Lulu Tan Gan <\/p>\n
With numerous sponsors and patrons and Manilas wealthiest on the guest list, it is an extravagant operation, and one that does not go without preparation. <\/p>\n
Champagne and Cointreau-politans kept the room buzzing with lively chatter before the main event. Leading to the ballroom was a wall of fresh pink roses with tags that read Every rose is a thousand pesos more from Downy to Red Cross. A photo booth and separate photo mural ensured that guests had their share of captured memories. <\/p>\n
Sabi ko Red Cross so Ill wear red! exclaimed one guest as she explained her outfit of choice for the evening. Amidst the numerous red dresses and glittering ensembles, the sleeved suit gown made a notable appearance. Donned by several including Lucy Torres-Gomez, this simple style turned many heads with its feminine take on a very masculine fashion. <\/p>\n
