Dizon first revealed Kevin Kreider as the cover personality of Lifestyle Asia’s August print issue at Newport City’s Casa Buenas.
There, she welcomed a crowd consisting of select chief executives and society members from the Philippine luxury scene.
All of whom received complimentary digital copies of Dizon’s maiden issue during the invite-only event.
Lifestyle Asia’s leader also introduced the magazine’s new team.
Among them is managing editor Mawi Fojas de Ocampo, who will help Dizon realize her vision of “redefining luxury.”

The rest of the team consists of writers Mica Cruz and Ratziel San Juan, multimedia artist Paolo Torio, group art director Marc Yellow, brand associate Ella Ocampo, and group publisher Janine Recto.
The new luxury
“The true definition of luxury is not about how much money one has in their wallet. Or how many colors of bags are in one’s closet. Or how many acres of land the house sits on. I hope to make you see that the wad of cash was acquired through millions of hours of time spent on work,” Dizon said at the event.
She mentioned how the real architect of one’s mansion, for instance, is the love one holds for their family.
“Lifestyle Asia is now more about heart than riches. I hope that with this as our new goal, you will continue and strengthen your support for the magazine. So that together, we may achieve and spread awareness—the deeper meaning of wealth,” Dizon concluded.
