efore there is Adrian Sahagun, Pablo
Cabahug, Renan Pacson and Kermit Tesoro that I admire a lot. Louis Claparols is my favorite Filipino designer then and even now I still admire his adorable creations. I can still remember I kept on tagging him on twitter whenever I saw a creation of him in various magazines that I buy. One of the most memorable moment I had with him was, when I tagged him on the advertisement of his collaboration with SM Men’s Fashion Brand Markus. He followed me then in Instagram. His creations has been featured in various magazine and worn by celebrities for a long time already. He is already one of the designers that young designers look up to. His collaboration with SM Men’s Fashion Brand Markus is really my favorite collections he made. Of course I can wear them bad sadly I haven’t bought one. So Lets Know him more…
