"I’m a fan of all things sparkly and 2022 will be good for this. From sequined maxi dresses to spangly suits, embellishment and maximalist vibes are certainly having a moment. For some nights when I feel less glittery, I opt for blazer dresses and color block suits that allow you to dazzle without a sequin in sight. And don’t forget feathers—I love this trend for winter (since I spend the holidays in the US) with matching heavy sable or mink coats and chunky or knee high embellished boots."

"For me, as the new COO of the Philippine Tourism Promotions Board, my clothes have to go from corporate Filipinana day to night. I always make it a point to #CarryYourCulture and dress with purpose without sacrificing comfort and style. My favorite holiday outfits would be my pencil cut mixed weave terno dresses. I wear them with pointed heels for work then change to sandals at night."

"The most fashion-forward item to wear this Christmas is one that doesn’t cost the planet. Not everything in fashion always has to be new. Shop your closet and proudly rewear an old outfit in a new way—this is a true test of style! The most sustainable option is to always use what you already own."

"A great idea for holiday outfitting would be to rent clothes or scour second hand shops for evening dresses or party frocks! Since these are statement pieces that most people usually wear just once or twice, a lot of them go to consignment shops, are rented out, or are sold online for a fraction of the price. If you’re into designer items, Carousell is a great place to buy. @piefinds on Instagram also has awesome pre-loved party wear and accessories for sale, and if you just want to rent, @vestido.manila is highly recommended!"

Tessie Singson
"Since I’m more on the minimalist side, I would just accentuate my typically all-black look by wearing let’s say an oversized pink blazer or a pair of gold or silver platforms or pumps. Also, another way of bringing the holiday spirit to your outfit is by opting for bold and chunky gold accessories or perhaps a cute fun purse."

Tricia Gosingtian
"I love wearing LBDs for the holidays. By LBD, I mean long black dress! I always need to wear something that can easily go from day to night, since sometimes, the reality of parenthood is no in-between breaks or time for outfit changes. This one shoulder dress from Hinhin is pretty much my go-to this holiday season."

"Finally we get to celebrate the holidays like we used to and with that, I think "revenge holiday dressing” is the vibe this 2022. Time to bring my your best dress, accessories! Celebrating life and you surviving the past two years."
