Peek at the latest Bang x 0917 Collection for Style Fest PH 2019

Last night was a really fun night with Stylefest PH and Globe giving a sneak peek of their latest 0917 collection. With this, they also launched the 2nd year festivities of Stylefest PH and what to expect from this design competition.

 

The designs above are from the latest Bang x 0917 collection, and if these are some of what we can see from the candidates and their mentors then I am so excited to see more!

The eight finalists, divded into two groups will be undergoing a two month Designer Mentorship Program (DMP) as part of StylefestPH 2019 which cultivates this November 4, 5 and 6.

The eight finalists -- Ia Coca, Neil Anthonie, Adrian Sagahun, Bessie Besana, Justine Llarena, Bea Guerrero, Einar Nicdao and Austeen Soriano -- will now go to the next and most important phase in their careers as they learn from fashion icon Inno Sotto; fashion darling Carl Jan Cruz; fashion stylist Sidney Yap; Paulo Campos, Zalora founder and CEO; and Leah De Guzman, head of 0917 Lifestyle. The eight finalists will present their capsule collections on the runway on November 5 at this year’s StyleFestPH. At the end of the presentation, two winners, one each, will be chosen to collaborate with 0917 Lifestyle and Zalora.

Aside from the Designer's Contest, StyleFestPH 2019 offers a wide array of activities that include trend talks, designers on spotlight, runway shows and shopping parties to be held at the Grand Hyatt Manila, BGC

Beyond the clothing, you can expect talks, fashion shows and of course more shopping! Since StyleFestPH aims for promotion of Filipino Fashion and creativity, Designers on Spotlight's first part will be dubbed "Roots". This is a series of talks highlighting important aspects of fashion and digital business. The focus will be on on support for local artisans and on promoting the use of culturally rich clothing such as jusi and t’nalak, featuring designers Paloma Zobel, Chris Nick and Mark Bumgarner.

Boom Sason, on the other hand, will talk about promoting and championing body confidence through the way she designs her line on November 5, while Bang Pineda takes the limelight on November 6.

The five designers will also be presenting their new collections during the three-day fashion event, which will incorporate a unique “see now buy now” feature after each runway show. What’s more, selected items from their existing collections will also be available for purchase by the audience.

Finally, Fashion SNOOPS will share its fashion forecasts that will shape the consumer market on November 6. More than that, the global trend forecasting company will also be giving fashion industry movers the knowledge on how to strategize and make a campaign work.

If the designs here are what to expect from the live shopping activity on November 4 to 6 then I am really excited! I am so eyeing that grey 0917 x Bang shirt!
