Every garment making up a collection reflects a designer’s individuality. They contain accumulated experiences that can be delicately traced through form and technique. Clothing then turns into a time capsule that unfolds history and envisions the future. In this fashion editorial shot exclusively for our September 2023 print issue, L’Officiel Philippines chats with the brains behind eight budding Filipino fashion brands — .Archives, Kill Joy Studios, De Pedro, John Fede, Monohomme Studios, JP Agbayani, Ziv Rei Alexi, and Repamana — about their design philosophies and how they transformed their personal narratives into beautiful threads.
