SINGAPORE 13 March 2019 – To strengthen its presence in the Singapore market, internationally-renowned Filipina designer Pia Gladys Perey (PGP) was among those featured in an exclusive showcase for Maison de Designer held at the St. Regis Hotel on 23 February 2019.
Embassy First Secretary and Consul Gonaranao B. Musor and Commercial Counsellor Maria Cynthia B. Ricafort attended the event on behalf of the Philippine Embassy in Singapore to support homegrown designers.
PGP Chief Operations Officer Vission Perey represented her sister Pia during the showcase.
Maison de Designer Founder and Director Firzan Amin is enthusiastic about carrying PGP in Singapore as it also aims to bring the brand to neighboring Indonesia, which has an even bigger market.
The showcase also served as a soft launch of Maison de Designer, and was especially curated and hosted by Singapore-based Indonesian socialite Irvina Hulyer.
Ms. Perey’s designs have been featured on the red carpet at the Golden Globes, Grammys, Emmys, and the American Music Awards. Hollywood celebrities who have worn PGP include Angelina Jolie and Demi Lovato. Vogue U.K. cited PGP as “a few collections away from becoming a global brand.”
Maison de Designer is a luxury fashion platform that connects Asian designers with targeted customers across Southeast Asia. Its mission is to promote Asian fashion to the world. END
