Rajo Laurel Muses Rajo Holiday 2025

<p>Beyond design, <strong>Rajo Laurel</strong>’s creative language is deeply personal. His <strong>Holiday 2025</strong> show honors the people who’ve walked beside him through the years—each look a reflection of shared memories and enduring kinship.</p><p>For Rajo Laurel, fashion goes beyond design but more so an exchange of energy, emotion, and connection. At his Holiday 2025 show, that spirit came to life not only through the clothes but also through the people who wore them. Each look was shaped by stories, shared histories, and bonds that have evolved over time.</p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1761038800871METRO.Style-12.png" style="width:1000px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>From longtime friends to creative collaborators and newfound muses, the women and men who walked in Rajo’s latest collection embody the heart of his vision: style with sentiment. </p><p>As he tells Metro through our special fashion editorial shoot—<strong>“Shape Shifters”</strong>—at this show, every familiar face represents a chapter in his journey. “Fashion is my love language,” Rajo says. “Through it, I get to celebrate the people who inspire me most.”</p><p>Below, Rajo shares his reflections on four individuals who have shaped, inspired, and walked beside him through the years—each one part of the tapestry that continues to define The RAJO Store and its story of evolution, artistry, and kinship.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Anthony Constantino</strong><strong><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/176103882735221.png" style="width:1000px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></strong>Rajo recalls that Anthony Constantino’s very first fashion show and shoot was with him just last year “It’s wonderful how one year ago he was modeling for me—and now he’s the next biggest and hottest thing,” Rajo tells Metro. Anthony has since evolved into a model, a muse, and one to watch in fashion.<strong></strong></div><div><strong><br/></strong></div><div><strong>Georgina Wilson</strong><strong><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/176103887377025.png" style="width:1000px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></strong></div><p>Rajo shares his long-standing bond with Georgina Wilson, who has been both muse and sister through the years. “We’re very, very close, and she’s almost like an adopted sister. She truly is like a sister to us,” Rajo tells Metro. “She flew in from Shanghai to join us in the show—it was so special.”</p><p>Their years of friendship and shared passion for style continue to shape Rajo’s creative world.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Kyline Alcantara</strong><strong><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/176103892449223.png" style="width:1000px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></strong></div><p>Rajo Laurel shares that Kyline Alcantara has built a special bond with his sister, makeup artist Gela Laurel, who has been part of Kyline’s journey since the very beginning. “Kyline actually quite close to my sister, Gela. Gela and Kyline have worked together since essentially the beginning of Kyline’s career. So their relationship is truly like sisters because of the intimacy of Gela’s work with makeup,” Rajo shares/</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Solenn Heussaff</strong><strong><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/176103899295224.png" style="width:1000px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></strong><br/></div><p>For Rajo, his friendship with Solenn Heussaff goes way back, to when both were just beginning their creative journeys. “When Solenn was very young, not even 15 or 16, she modeled for me when I was also starting,” Rajo says. “Now, as she explores her art and motherhood, she reminds us that at the core of everything, we all share the same thing—family.” That friendship continues to flourish, refined by time, art, and the life they’ve both built.</p><div><em><br/></em></div><div><em>Photographs: <strong>JV Rabano</strong></em></div><div><em>Fashion Editor: <strong>Randz Manucom</strong></em></div><div><em>Fashion Associate: <strong>Carla Buyo</strong></em></div><div><em>Fashion Assistant: <strong>Ysabella Bautista</strong></em></div><div><em>Photography Assistants: <strong>Odan Juan</strong> and <strong>PJ Salazar</strong></em></div><div><em><br/></em></div><div><em>Special thanks to <strong>Rajo Laurel, The RAJO Store</strong> and <strong>Visions &amp; Expressions</strong></em></div>
