CFAD JUNIORS ONCE AGAIN STRUT THE RUNWAYS OF FASHION

The University of Santo Tomas College of Fine Arts and Design Advertising Department is well known for it's capable student-designers and it's grandiose fashion shows. Annually held by the juniors, it was put to end as the "Cirq Regal" (2011's CFAD Fashion Show) gave her final ramp. But nothing was impossible with the juniors' (S.Y. 2011-2012) will power to reincarnate the recently killed tradition. With the new safeguards of CFAD fashion, MODE fashion show gave CFAD fashion its brand new strut on the runway.

MODE Fashion Show Runway

KNOWING THE PEOPLE BEHIND:

Nicole Santos (a famed owner of the blog nicolethedressupdoll.blogspot.com), was the center of La MODE's incarnate. Nevertheless, with the help of Joma Bernardo, Renz Pangilinan, Tri Platon, Ching Ramos, Jessica Murphy, Danae Dipon, and Cathy Ramos, the fashion elective student's dream has come to be  a runway reality.

3RD YEAR PROJECT: REMAKE OF ANTM CYCLE 10 EXTREME BEAUTY SHOTS WITH PAINT


As a former art student, the school required us to do such projects in order to express and discover ourselves as who we are as an artist, here is a photo that me and my block-mates produced during our junior year. Being a true fashionisto, it's not inevitable for me too take inspiration from the ever infamous America's Next Top Model

Entitled as "Art is my Passion" here is our version of the famed Beauty Shot on Cycle 10's episode 5. Not only for it's aesthetics, I was inspired by the idea that the artwork really illustrates what we are doing as an art student; plus the additional fashion edge, I deliberately persuaded my mates to push this through.  And with the help of my incredibly great team...


Art Direction and Photography: Ronn Wong
Assistant Photographer: Ysabel Tuanquin
Stylist: Estell Villanueva, Mancie Silloriquez, Jazmine Villanueva
Model: Nichi Gatdula
VOILA! 
We didn't get a high grade though, but nevertheless I'm damn proud of what we've had accomplished.

I will surely miss doing such projects with my block-mates. Hope you guys like this, will post more of my school stuffs soon. CHEERS!

here's an original art work from ANTM,
FATIMA SIAD, 3rd placer.

THE CHAPTER IN MY LIFE WHERE I'M GRADUATING AND MY DAYS ARE GETTING BORING, SO I CONVINCED MYSELF TO START BLOGGING.

Hey, Ronn here. As I enter new chapter in my life, I provided myself a checklist of things to do while I'm stuck doing nothing in the awkward phase of every newly grads, and TADAAA!! blogging was first on my list. Evidently, blogging is very new to me, but I will try my very best to entertain and inform you netizens with my adventures and discoveries as i scour the aquarium we call "WORLD". Rest assured you'll be seeing a lot of fashion, photography, and the arts.















Hope you guys find my blog interesting and useful.
CIAO FOR NOW!
