In a gracious afternoon defined by refined indulgence, Rodo CEO and owner Gianni Dori, together with host Dean Decker, elegantly presented the Italian maison’s enduring devotion to quiet luxury at the first floor of Rustan’s Makati in Makati City. With a proud 70-year heritage rooted in Italian craftsmanship, Rodo revealed pieces that whispered sophistication through the finest fabrics, impeccably crafted in-house brass hardware, and a timeless design sensibility that transcends trends.

The intimate affair was made even more luminous by the presence of Anton Huang, Maritess Enriquez, Nikki Huang, and Miss Universe Philippines 2022 Celeste Cortesi, each embodying the brand’s effortless elegance, making the gathering a celebration of heritage, artistry, and enduring style.

Stepping into the limelight with effortless charm, Gen Z superstar Belle Mariano is the dazzling new face of V! Jewelry, embodying the brand’s celebration of individuality, self-expression, and authentic style.

As she showcases the versatile elegance of V!’s South Sea pearls, each piece becomes a reflection of the many facets of her personality: playful, sophisticated, and endlessly inspiring. Stylish in some of the brand’s bestselling pieces such as the Gabrielle dangling earrings, the Visionary bracelets, and the BFF bracelets, Belle brings a fresh and modern energy to pearls, redefining these statement gems for a new generation.

Of glitter, stars, and joy

The Lovely Ladies group truly outdid themselves at their latest gathering. Thanks to the impeccable planning of Marissa Fenton and Roselle Rebano, the party was filled with laughter, delightful music, and delicious bites.

Guests glimmered in glitter-and-star hairbands, enjoying fabulous prizes and giveaways generously provided by the group’s supporters. A truly magical celebration of friendship, fun, and lasting cheer.
