Tiffany & Co.
Tiffany & Co. just dropped its newest fine jewelry collection, “Bird on a Rock by Tiffany,” a fresh take on Jean Schlumberger’s legendary motif.

Vania Romoff & Mark Bumgarner x Plains & Prints
Plains & Prints rang in its 30th year with a collaboration worth talking about—uniting design darlings Vania Romoff and Mark Bumgarner. The Ayala Museum set the stage for the big reveal: a ten-piece capsule marrying Romoff’s dreamy femininity with Bumgarner’s razor-sharp tailoring. The result? Effortless, versatile looks that celebrate three decades of Plains & Prints’ everyday elegance—proof that reinvention never goes out of style.
DiaGold x Cary Santiago
Two Cebu icons united at Shangri-La The Fort as DiaGold unveiled its Crown Jewels collection, an opulent display of rubies, sapphires, emeralds, and yellow diamonds, presented alongside Cary Santiago’s first Manila solo show in a decade. The sculptural couture—inspired by wings and plumage—paired perfectly with the jewels, and together they staged a dazzling showcase of Filipino artistry, luxury, and imagination.
Max&Co
MAX&Co. opened its new flagship at Central Square Mall in BGC. The 86-square-meter space feels more gallery than store, mixing Italian craftsmanship with modern flair. It’s the perfect backdrop for the brand’s bold, mix-and-match pieces: statement coats, versatile staples, and unapologetically chic looks for women who dress to stand out.
Lacoste
Lacoste brings the flair to Greenbelt 5 with its Courtside Garden pop-up, running September 19–30 and spotlighting the Lenglen bag, already a house icon since its Fall-Winter 2024 debut. Inspired by Suzanne Lenglen’s pleated skirts, the bag earns major style points with versatile handles, sleek finishes, and multiple sizes.
Oysho
Oysho, Inditex Group’s activewear and lifestyle darling, has landed in the Philippines with its first-ever store at the Mall of Asia. The sleek single-floor space is designed like a style journey, from a ceramic-tiled Welcome Zone to oak-clad fitting rooms, with seasonal drops showcased in a striking Wow Zone. With its mix of premium design, sport-meets-fashion collections, and a vibe that’s equal parts chic and functional, Oysho’s Manila debut marks a bold new chapter in the brand’s global expansion.
Continuiti x Chris Nick
Continuiti marked its first birthday in style with a luxe collab: 28 archival gowns by CHRIS NICK—usually reserved for red carpet moments—made available for rent via the platform. It’s a sustainable power move, serving up high-glamour looks without the permanence and giving Filipinos VIP access to local designer magic.
PHx Fashion Group x Comme Ci
PHx Fashion Group and Comme Ci are spotlighting the next wave of local talent with “Four Emerging Voices,” a three-month retail activation at Comme Ci, Power Plant Mall (running until November 18, 2025). The platform features Adam Pereyra’s memory-laden jewels, Allan Matudio’s punk-futurist adornments, Kill Joy Studios’ gritty urban wear, and Rod Malanao’s intimate, shape-shifting knits. The showcase is a crash course in how Filipino designers remix heritage, identity, and lived experience into fashion now.
