Randy Ortiz for Plains & Prints’ holiday collection

Romantic glam inspired by the styles of top showbiz and fashion personalities was showcased recently when Plains & Prints unveiled its new holiday collection in collaboration with top fashion designer Randy Ortiz.

Held at the lobby of the Ayala Museum, the cocktail launch of Randy Ortiz for Plains & Printsgathered fashionistas, celebrities, fashion editors and writers, who were clad in their most stylish black and white garb to celebrate the artistic fusion of fashion from Plains & Prints and Ortiz. The venue became a fashion gallery-cum-runway that fittingly presented a collection that revealed a splendid play of colors, textures and silhouettes inspired by the designer’s fashion muses.

On hand to welcome guests were Plains & Prints creative head and owner Roxanne Farillas and Randy Ortiz, who were both excited to present the fruits of their collaboration before an eager audience of trendsetters and fashion lovers.

“It has always been our goal to work with designers like Randy Ortiz who have made such a huge impact in the Philippine fashion industry. This collaboration has created a capsule collection that perfectly merged the signature looks of both Randy Ortiz and Plains & Prints,” explained Farillas.

Randy Ortiz for Plains & Prints couture collection was showcased in a fashion presentation that also brought together legendary supermodels Marina Benipayo, Annette Coronel, Patty Betita, Suyen Chi, Jo-Ann Bitagcol and Wilma Doesnt.

The collection featured a seven-piece ensemble inspired by Ortiz’s fashion muses Kris Aquino, Charlene Gonzalez-Muhlach, Claudine Barretto, Lucy Torres-Gomez, Tweetie de Leon-Gonzalez, Gelli de Belen, and Ortiz’s own mother Lourdes Ortiz, whose love for fashion is impeccable and have made a lasting impression on Randy as a person and designer.

Models sashayed in tunic tops, dresses, and blouses in jewel tones and printed patterns, and the special Randy Ortiz Prints in Red and Gray that incorporated the designer’s famous rosette texture and pattern. Also presented were exciting new pieces from Plains & Prints’ Holiday 2009 Collection, featuring dresses, tops, skirts and pants in flamboyant yet elegant designs in rich, solid colors. Wowing the fashion crowd even more was Plains & Prints’ use of digital printing on fabric, a new fashion innovation that reflects Plains & Prints’ commitment to elevate the local fashion industry through new techniques in fabric design and production.

Besides a spectacle of fashion firsts and dream collaborations, Plains & Prints also showed its commitment to further take fashion to a higher level by holding a Buyer’s Night, which would help raise funds for the victims of Typhoon Ondoy and Pepeng. Twenty percent of the sales from pre-orders from guests will be donated to the flood victims.

The unveiling of Randy Ortiz for Plains & Prints couture Collection was successfully organized by Marilen Nuñez and her team from L.E.N. Plus Inc. Shoes wore by models were from Schu, jewelry by Jewelmer, cocktails and drinks by Future Trade International and Cointreau, respectively.
