HOT YOUNG DESIGNERS COMPETITION: THE PHOTOSHOOT

Hot off the press!

Here are the press release pics from the finalists' photo shoot at the Basement Academy.

The HYD designer contestants enjoyed their full day photo shoot held at the HD Make Up Studio and Academy. They experienced being made up by experts in hi-definition (HD) makeup and airbrush in the Philippines. The HD Make Up Studio and Academy team was headed by Jeave Gabiana and Christephanie Chua-Sing, who are the co-founders of this academy.

The photos from the shoot give you an idea of what to expect from each designer. Expect light and “flowy” designs from Jackie Abueg, a glam rock collection from Marc Blanco, a colorful and feminine collection from Bailey Dava, hip and funky designs from Klart Lim, and a comfortable yet opulent collection from Renan Pacson.

After a successful photo shoot, the Hot Young Designers Fashion Face Off 2011 Designer Contestants started producing their first collection. The first of the three collections will be launched this October1, 2011 at a specially designed eCommerce site for this online competition (HotYoungDesigners.com).

I can't wait to see their designs! For more details about this competition, please check my blog and hotyoungdesigners.tumblr.com
