October 2024 marks the launch of Studio Artesan’s newest exclusive collection. Introduced in 2021 as a love letter by Rustan’s to all things locally-produced, handcrafted, and ethically-made, the initiative continues to promote local craftsmanship by showcasing emerging Filipino designers, whose fine works influence and define today’s Filipina look.
Despite fashion’s ever-evolving nature, the stylish Filipina is grounded by her love for local craftsmanship, sustainability, modernity, and uniqueness; as well as her knack for artisanal products. While she can be experimental with her wardrobe, the essence of her look is distinct and consistent—no doubt, an extension of her empowered identity.
