Strength in Softness

Posted by Tippi | Jul 24, 2015 | PASSIONistas |

It’s no longer just a man’s world and there is something powerful about fluidity and grace and the strength found in our softer side. It’s sensuality without the brashness, presence without the loudness, and fierceness without the harsh exterior. The Filipina today celebrates her femininity, embraces her innate strength, revels in her freedom, and moves fashion forward by being comfortable in her own skin.

PASSIONista: Angel Agustin

Posted by Tippi | Jul 23, 2015 | PASSIONistas |

There are more sides to fashion, and many, many more sides to the people in fashion, than meet the collective eye. Beyond the shows and catwalks, we discover people with a myriad of interests and dreams who aren’t just fashionistas, they’re passion-istas. Professional Model’s Association of the Philippines (PMAP) President, runway fixture and model mother, Angel Agustin, has always been a joy to do fashion shows with, but did you know that on top of that graceful walk is a head for investments? Taking care of the future is something she has always been passionate about (she’s also a...

Keeping It Cool

Posted by Tippi | Jul 10, 2015 | PASSIONistas |

It’s a new time, and the Millenial Filipina (as well as the Modern Filipiniana) is exhibiting a new attitude–unfussy, unstructured and downright cool. She’s ecologically conscious, while still keeping her fashion edge. She understands that fashion-forward style and beauty are about working with elements from the past, stripping away the inessentials, and fashioning it together in a way that is completely now.

PASSIONista: Lou Muñoz

There are more sides to fashion, and many, many more sides to the people in fashion, than meet the collective eye. Beyond the shows and catwalks, we discover people with a myriad of interests and dreams who aren’t just fashionistas, they’re passion-istas. One of the models I enjoyed working with in the past is Lou Muñoz because she always felt like more than a pretty face. Looking at her, who would ever think that her passion was food? Debunking the typical myth that models don’t eat, Lou has loved cooking and preparing all kinds of dishes since she was...

Just Add Water!

Posted by Tippi | Jul 6, 2015 | The Tippi Point |

It’s the beginning of the week and a stormy and very, very wet Monday. This morning was kick started with a super early morning workout and breakfast topped off with a strong espresso–needless to say, I had more than a little extra energy to burn today. After working on some new ‘Modern Filipiniana’ designs for a couple of clients, I was left to while away an entire rainy afternoon and I thought, there’s water everywhere, why not add some to my fashion sketches. I had recently been inspired by all the amazing watercolor artwork of my good friend, Cynthia,...
