Fashionista Week
Last May 24-29, 2010 Bacolod City celebrated its fashion week. A week dedicated to showcase the talent and designs of local fashion artists from Ilo-ilo and Bacolod.
Erisa’s younger brother, Jayson, was one of the local models who featured the works and designs of these artists. We got a chance to attend one of the fashion shows held at one of their venues, the Sugarland Hotel, last 25th of May. That night’s show featured three local artists and their works. I wasn’t familiar with the names and the personalities involved though, just went there to take some pictures. 
The first part of the show featured designs from Jor-el Espina.
The next set featured designs from Bo Parcon.
The highlight of the evening were the designs from Jaki Peñalosa which carries the title for the night’s event “Philippine Women in Focus”.
The experience was a first for me and my wife. Attending a fashion show is not, and never was, included in my to-do list. I never cared for fashion eversince but the event was for free and it gave us (Erisa & I) a chance to shoot at a different environment.
