MANILA FASHION FESTIVAL, now on its second season, begs to differ: there is the traditional showcase, but the catch is, the designs are available for purchase, stat. MFF is a vehicle by Art Personas and epitomizes the business of fashion via a fashion/trunk show in-one.

5. Last but not the least, and because we can pick our own Pikachu of 'em all: Ziggy Savella.
His touted runway comeback (after a three-year hiatus) with a collection of louche daywear and pajama-dressing is another seal of approval: yes, you can wake up like that and nonchalantly head out to KFC.
