Spring fling

JACKIE O' FLASH - Bea J. Ledesma -

Never let it be said that the beginning of the year functions solely as a dry run for the fabulously fun ensembles people are preparing for summer. With the cold front set to remain till February, bikinis will have to stay in the closet for now. We turned to five young designers to clue us in on their key looks for the current season.

Let there be white

Designer: Charina Sarte

Concept: “I wanted something fresh but glam for spring,” Charina notes of her delicate beaded lace frock. “It’s the perfect luxurious cover-up for that special beach soiree!”

New rave

Designer: Joey Samson

Concept: “I think the best way to update your wardrobe is to inject a new color or new shape.” His solution? Bold neon brights and playful proportions. “Try an oversized top with skimpy shorts or vice versa,” he recommends. Joey suggests choosing separates that can easily be integrated into your current wardrobe if you’d like to adopt a new trend. “That kind of Darwinian selection maximizes your options.”

Brief case

Designer: Ivar Aseron

Concept: Ivar recommends a head-turning romper for a statement-making spring wardrobe pick-me-up. “Shorts are a must-have for the season because summer is the best time to show skin!”

Sheer leader

Designer: Brian Leyva

Concept: “Working with a silhouette is my key look for the season,” says Brian. “Using sheer fabric over a tank top,” he explains, adds a depth to the ensemble, making it a stark change from the usual springtime florals.

Neutral ground

Designer: Ferdi Abuel

Concept: Maxi dresses remain strong contenders for spring. “Neutrals like blush and nude are perfect for the season,” say Ferdi. “They serve as canvasses for the season’s bold and luxe accessories.”
