02:00Let's get started.
02:29Let's get started.
03:00Let's get started.
03:29So, ito yung mga, ito yung mga, ano, naging very, talagang empowered Carnival Queens. One of them, in fact, naging First Lady, Trida de Leon Rojas. Okay?
03:42And then, isa naging senadora, yung anak ni Pura, si Senator Maria Calao, na naging katikba. Anak niya yun, naging ano rin yun, Miss Philippines. So, siya, naging ano rin siya, part ng Carnival Queen. Kasi yung Carnival Queen, eventually, naging Miss Philippines siya ng 1927. Naging nationwide search. Okay.
04:12Let's get started.
04:42Let's get started.
05:12Let's get started.
05:42And, yung mga makikita, even yung idea ng being male sa fashion, even na, kasi noon, wala namang bid work ang mga barong. Ngayon, it's part of it.
05:54Let's get started.
05:55It's part of it.
05:56It's part of it.
05:57It's part of it.
05:58It's part of it.
05:59Oh, yeah.
06:00Kaya ikaw, kailangan magbabarong ka na with me.
06:03O, yan.
06:04Pwede.
06:05Why natin?
06:06Nabigyan ako ng idea.
06:07Kailangan mag-model ka na rin.
06:08Kailangan mag-model ka na rin.
06:09Kailangan mag-model ka.
06:10At saka, nasa entertainment ka, kaya kailangan medyo, you know.
06:12Alright.
06:13So, aside from that, meron din tayong coffee table book na ilalunch.
06:16Yes.
06:17Oo.
06:18Last year, nag-launch ako ng coffee table book when I had an opera maestra at the Metropolitan
06:24Theater.
06:25A Homage to Philippine Fashion, Heritage and History.
06:30Diyan nag-concentrate ako sa prehistory ng Pilipinas.
06:34This coming book na ilalunch ko sa Intramuros, sa Fora de Intramuros, ang concentration ko naman
06:42yung Spanish colonial years.
06:45So, iba yung concentration ko kasi ang dami kong mga controversial issues na tinatch doon.
06:53To me, kun, kung one of them or two of them, isasabihin ko na doon mo makikita ko bakit saan nagmula yung anti-Spanish sentiment ni Rizal.
07:08Kasi, kinulong yung mother niya eh.
07:10for two years, you know, and unjustly imprisoned.
07:15And then, of course, yung laging traumatic experience
07:21ni Gregoria de Jesus, the wife of Andres Bonifacio,
07:26she was actually twice in a templang rape
07:29during the trial of Bonifacio.
07:34Yung pinaghugutan nito, o nga eh,
07:36yung pinaghugutan nitong mga event na ito
07:38at nang concept, and more on historical facts.
07:41Yes, yes.
07:42In fact, in cultural show ko, actually,
07:46talagang may, ano siya, part nung show,
07:49meron siya talagang mga, ano, mga,
07:53kumbaga, historical points na nirirase ko, no?
07:56Yes, yes.
07:57Dun sa, ano, dun sa bawat segment.
07:59So, it becomes a learning experience.
08:02Yes.
08:03Diba?
08:03Ang ganda makita yung mga, the beautiful creations.
08:06At the same time, when you get out of the, ano,
08:09of the venue, may natutunan ka.
08:11Correct.
08:11Okay.
08:12Could you tell, Dr. Jerome,
08:13may mga models tayong kasama kanina.
08:15Yes.
08:15And now, meron sila mga bagong mga suot.
08:18Yes.
08:18Ano, no?
08:19And tell us a little story about these creations.
08:22First, the one in black gown, black evening gown,
08:27do you know that the designs of that gown,
08:30So, tisam,
08:32those petals and flowers are actually made of abaca.
08:38Nobody does it now.
08:40So, I tried to do sculptural work by using abaca
08:44and place it in the gown.
08:46Wow, okay.
08:47And, but I made it more modern, more cleavage,
08:51and I added some glittery materials.
08:56Siyempre, yung model natin si Sam Victoria.
08:59Okay.
08:59Sam Acosta is our model,
09:01who happens to be my...
09:03Miss.

09:11na modern Tagalog,
09:13sparkling na siya, no?

09:15And this one is made of husi material.
09:21I added fiberglass, beaded,
09:27fiberglass beaded and corded designs
09:31on the colors and the bodies.
09:37The wear is dialed sa udari.
09:40Ito hindi medyo pangkaraniwan na kulay ito,
09:44para sa lalaki.
