All the Local Designers We're Excited to See at Panasonic Manila Fashion Festival 2021

Mark your calendars–Panasonic Manila Fashion Festival has returned for its 2021 edition with a livestreamed show that will run from May 31 to June 4 on the PMFF website.

Due to the pandemic, fashion shows worldwide came to a screeching halt, forcing organizations to quickly reprogram the events to be more livestream-friendly. The same goes for PMFF, which has stretched out its three-day in-person festival into a five-day online event. Hence, the show's title, A Fashion Reboot, is beyond fitting. Life goes on despite the limitations forced by the pandemic upon our weary world, and all industries–including creative ones–deserve to survive and even thrive anew amid all the hardship. A reboot it is! 

The show will feature 23 Filipino designers hailing from Manila, Cebu, Davao, and Cagayan de Oro, and will also include a collaborative collection between PMFF and Stylem, a leading Japanese textile company. Comprised of a healthy mix of industry veterans and scene newcomers, the lineup promises diversity, vigor, and appeal. All fashion fans should definitely tune in to the show to see the new collections!
