Of Frenchmen in Filipiniana & A Bride’s Tres Chic Sense of Style
Inspirations.PH editorial team’s attention excitedly focused on Frenchman Philippe and Filipina beauty Nadia’s Peillon, France wedding for 5 reasons:
- The bride wore a modern 2-in-1 Filipiniana ensemble that featured a sheer sheath overlay with butterfly sleeves over a refined slip-style minimalist wedding dress. Remove the sheath and, voila, a modern cocktail party reception dress that is romantic, classic, and fashionable all at once.
- The bride’s off shoulder dinner party ensemble with multilayered peplum silhouette and bell Fiipiniana bell sleeves that look very cosmopolitan and chic.
- The groom and groomsmen looked comfy and fantastic in their lakan collar pina barong and looked very comfy in it. Not the typical choice of frenchmen, so kudos to these gentlemen for wearing the barong with such elan.
- The bridesmaids in modern Filipiniana jusi gowns of ecru top and sage skirts with matching lunette shaped native woven handbags.
- The quaint commune of Peillon, France was the perfect counterpoint to the Filipiniana theme of the wedding with shades of ecru and sage complementing the rustic medieval backdrop of what is considered one of the most beautiful hilltop villages in France.
