Philippine Fashion Now

On September 2, 2025, the Bench Design Awards announced the winners of the Philippines Fashion Design Awards at Shibuya Hikari Hall.

These brands were:

STEPHVERANO, which creates clothes using items such as swim rings and fishing tackle. He assembles them in three-dimensional form using hand quilting and other embroidery techniques.

Nadalē, a brand known for its intricate cuts and patterns, this time embodying the “inner vibrations” of work-in-flow style.

The third brand, Peach.Garde, embodied the theme of “escape to the sea” and Chinese streetwear, drawing attention with jellyfish motifs.
