Project Runway Philippines Season 3 Airs March 25, 2012

After two successful seasons, Project Runway Philippines returns to television to look for the next big Filipino fashion designer. Tweetie De Leon-Gonzalez is taking the competition to a whole new level. With mentor Jojie Lloren and judges Apples Aberin and Rajo Laurel, they complete the four du force that will set together challenges to bring out the best in the designers this season.

Project Runway is set to premier on March 25, 2012 and I was happy to have had the chance to attended the launch in Genting club Resorts World. I've seen excerpts from the 1st episode and I can't wait to see what happens next. It's gonna be sad to see someone go home too early. But from what I've heard, I think there's no guarantee that only one person gets eliminated.

What I wore that night. (Sorry no OTD that night--there's too much food on the table and wine was overflowing and it kept me busy. lol!)





Dress: Be Like a Star
Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell
Gold bangles: Anagon

Here's a sneak peak of their creation for their first challenge.

Oz is too cute!





Oh and I took a photo of Enzo, one of the designers, just because I love his necklace. He's really nice.





It was a great event. Very successful and well attended I can say. There's so much to look forward to this season. I can't wait to see Tweety host the show. During the event, she admitted how moody and mean she can be at times. I can't imagine! I definitely have to see that. Let me end this post by Tweety and Rajo's words. Ciao loves!
