Aspiring Designers Compete Once Again for the
10th Edition MEGA Young Designer’s Competition
The
longest running fashion competition in the Philippines is back once again to
introduce the newest additions to Philippine fashion. MEGA Young Designers Competition (YDC) was created by Sari Yap,
founder of the MEGA Publishing Group and EIC of MEGA magazine, to highlight the immense
talents of aspiring Filipino designers. She envisioned a gathering of creative
minds that can bring Philippine fashion to the runways of the world.
The
competition opened doors for countless designers to find their niche and establish
their names in the industry. As the new season of YDC officially begins on
November 26, 2011, MEGA looks back and highlights past designers who have been
part of the competition.
Russel
Villafuerte, winner of the 9th edition of YDC, shared, “It’s such a
great privilege to be part of that elite group of top designers in the country
who joined YDC.” Something for viewers to look forward to, Russel revealed his
experience. “You get to see a lot of things in the challenges like making gowns
and couture in just 8 hours!”
For
the first female designer winner of YDC, Vanessa Ang was happy to mention that
YDC opened a lot of doors in her career. “I got to meet a lot of people and got
invited to all these fashion events that introduced me to different people and
provided me with more knowledge on the industry.”
Dubai based Furne One - who was
