The who’s who in the diplomatic, business and social circles gathered at the Main Lounge of the Manila Polo Club in Makati City for the fabulous birthday celebration of brilliant designer Jun Jun Ablaza.

Taking centerstage at the event was Jun Jun’s unique and fascinating exhibit in collaboration with top fashion designers and photographers. The exhibit showcased his creative genius and artistry.

Also present during the lavish affair was Jun Jun’s supportive family led by his parents Zambia Consul Luis Ablaza and Guatemala Consul Mellie Ablaza and siblings Marc Ablaza and Czarina Ablaza-Syquia.
