Ilongga fashion designer Audrey Rose Dusaran-Albason was the sole representative from the Philippines at the Oxford Fashion Studio (OFS), earlier this month in Paris, France.
Presenting her “Gugma” collection, the 32-year-old is known for her “feminine-eccentric” aesthetic.
Calling the experience “surreal,” she said her collection has a “Visayan touch,” with contemporary designs inspired by different landscapes of the Visayas, including beaches, rivers, and waterfalls.
Prior to Paris, she studied at the Fashion Institute of the Philippines in Manila and trained under renowned designer Francis Libiran./WDJ
