Michael Leyva Goes To Arab Fashion Week And The Looks Are Jaw-Dropping!
See his shoot with the Miss Universe PH queens as his muses!
Filipino designer Michael Leyva takes on another global stage as he presents his newest collection at Arab Fashion Week 2021 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Named ‘Diamonds’, the 30-piece collection is a mix of sparkly and bedazzled dressed and suits for men and women. It’s one of Michael’s biggest collections to date and it was surefire hit in Dubai and for those watched last night here in Manila.
For his pre-show shoot, the 32-year-old young designer did a casting call of the five Miss Universe PH queens who served as his stunning models for his pieces. Beatrice, Katrina, Maureen, Steffi, and Kim wowed in the multi-hued collection by Michael. The joyous shoot added to light
“Overwhelming,” Michael tells Metro.Style when asked about his emotions days leading to the shoot. “I am very thankful that I was given the opportunity to showcase my works here in Dubai for Arab Fashion week. This is another accomplishment now just for me but as well as for my team.”
