Why it’s fun to be fashionably insane

It’s fun to be fashionably insane! I have always considered my fashion a statement of rebellion and a daring way to be different, oblivious to what the fashion bullies say.

Style is an expression of individuality. I believe that blending in with the mob is a mistake anybody will commit in the entertainment industry.

If you want to be a star, you have to be bold and fearless in selecting a unique personal style. And high-end fashion doesn’t mean wearing clothes associated with global brands. But neither does it hurt to wear LV, Jacquemus or Thom Browne every so often.

This is what young fashion designer Marco Vallesteros believes in as he proudly launches the House of Vallesteros (HOV) today, 3 p.m. at the Citizen Hotel, Poblacion, Makati City. According to Marco, genuine luxury depends not on the price tag but on the craftsmanship and on how wearing the clothes can make someone feel more confident and more connected to who they truly are.

“House of Vallesteros was born from a deeply personal desire to create something that carries my name, my roots, and the lessons I learned throughout my journey as an entrepreneur,” he shared.
