This October, the nation's beloved gentleman David Licauco is fronting our digital cover as a handsome office worker caught in rush hour. Suited up and with his specs on, the Kapuso star effortlessly posed in front of photographer Renzo Navarro's lenses. Netizens were immediately smitten by David's looks, with many likening him to everything from a K-drama leading man to Clark Kent himself!
One of the scene-stealers in the actor's spread happened to be a designer bag shaped just like a wiener dog. Ladies and gents, say hello to Hector, a Thom Browne original that added just the right touch of whimsy to David's vintage-inspired ensembles.
Hector also has a little sibling, which is to say, he also comes as a small crossbody. We had our cover boy rock it with a relaxed three-piece Prada 'fit and boots.
True enough, K-drama fans may have spotted Hector on their screens before. In episodes of 2020's The Penthouse: War in Life, Lee Gyu-jin, played by Bong Tae Gyu, toted the canine on his daily office jaunts. In an interview, Tae Gyu revealed that he was the one who suggested to have his character wear Thom Browne. The brand took notice and even gifted him perfume and other goodies!
