A few hours ago, Benigno Simeon Cojuangco-Aquino was sworn-in as the Philippines 15th President. It was a momentous and joyous event for Filipinos who overwhelmingly gave him the mandate to lead this nation. The event seemed to be a red-carpet premier where the best and the who's who of Philippine fashion dressed the country's next leaders. First was JC Buendia who designed the inaugural barong tagalog or the Filipinos national costume for men mostly made from natural fibers. The new President's sisters were all dressed by Paul Cabral another famous designer of the stars. Not to be outdone as I may say is Vice President Jejomar Binay who commissioned the trusted King of Philippine Fashion Aureo Alonzo. I wonder who designed the gown of noted Filipina singer Charice who sang the National Anthem without much funfare. But most of all the color yellow dominates and is again fashionable.
