Lifestyle Asia’s November 2024 issue of Alpha features the ever-elegant and generous Lucy Torres Gomez, who practices the art of giving with sincerity, mindfulness, and an unwavering dedication to her community.
Dear Readers,
As the festive season approaches, it is my absolute pleasure to showcase the gracious Lucy Torres Gomez on our cover this month. Lucy has been a dear friend and my muse for nearly two and a half decades, and her elegance, intelligence, and generosity never cease to inspire me.
With the holidays just around the corner, Lucy embodies the true spirit of giving, making her the perfect highlight for this season’s theme, “Holiday and Shopping.” She is not only renowned for exquisite gift wrapping skills that turn each present into a work of art, but also her flourishing business Truest, which reflects her commitment to philanthropy. Truest is not just a brand; it’s a vehicle for change, benefiting the lives of her constituents by contributing to the growth and prosperity of her community.
In this joyous time, I am also thrilled to announce the launch of Lifestyle Asia’s CRAVE, a new coffee table book that spotlights 15 of Metro Manila’s top restaurants, carefully selected by Pepper Teehankee. This beautifully-crafted book is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team, and I am so proud to share it with you. CRAVE invites readers to explore the culinary excellence our city has to offer, making it the perfect companion for anyone who cherishes both great food and fine dining experiences.
So join us in celebrating a season of giving, inspired by a woman who continues to influence and uplift those around her with her creativity and compassion, and discover the gourmet delights that CRAVE has to offer.
Warm holiday wishes,
— Candy Dizon
