The local fashion scene takes a decidedly elegant turn this season as Homme et Femme unveils its Summer 2024 campaign, a masterclass in marrying timeless style with a touch of contemporary panache.
Fronting the campaign is Agot Isidro, a doyenne of Philippine cinema whose grace and poise transcend the vagaries of trends. Photographed by London-based Karl King Aguna and styled by Daryl Chang, Isidro embodies a timeless elegance that transcends mere seasons.
