IG Stalker: Celebs in Filipiniana

In line with their current Love Local campaign, local clothing brand Bench recently held a Filipiniana themed night at the Peninsula Manila hotel in Makati City which had their special guests and celebs wearing ternos and barongs. Looks like the classic Filipiniana terno is getting a classy revival in these fashionable interpretations.

Tonight's pairing includes good friends Paulo Avelino (@pauavelino) and Solenn Heussaff (@solennheussaff). #FashionableFilipinas #BenchTerno #LoveLocal

"It's something that I designed years ago and finally I have somewhere to wear it to!" - Longtime @benchtm endorser Borgy Manotoc is quite the trendsetter with his barong tuxedo hybrid. #FashionableFilipinas #BenchTerno #LoveLocal
