00:51.0
And with Bea's stylist, curator.
00:54.0
And of course with John Valle who did the hair.
00:57.0
Parang na-inspire kami.
00:58.0
Kasi nakita namin yung damet na very sleek.
01:01.0
And it's all black.
01:02.0
Parang napaka-graphic ng silhouette ng damet.
01:07.0
So I wanted something very classic.
01:09.0
Because Bea Alonzo for me.
01:12.0
You know, we really stick to the classic look.
01:15.0
When it comes to makeup.
01:16.0
I wanted to feature her eyes.
01:18.0
I wanted a little bit of a 90's feel.
01:22.0
Parang may konting drama.
01:23.0
But at the same time, it's not too much.
01:25.0
For the lips naman, we opted to go for.
01:28.0
Because she's the cover of the June issue of Mega.
01:32.0
I wanted something na mas light naman.
01:34.0
The opposite naman of what is on the cover.
01:38.0
So I wanted something very natural.
01:40.0
Actually, it's really the classic Bea Alonzo look.
01:50.0
Hi, I'm John Valle.
01:51.0
Hair stylist of Bea.
01:53.0
So parang Bea is wearing a turtleneck.
01:58.0
Walang nakikitang legs.
01:59.0
So parang we decided na top bun.
02:02.0
We decided na sleek lang yung look.
02:05.0
And then mas imodernize yung pagiging sleek niya.
02:08.0
Hindi siya yung typical na bun.
02:10.0
Parang nakatwist siya going up.
02:11.0
And then with feathers at the ends ng bun.
02:14.0
May pagka 90's look din.
02:16.0
Parang binase ko rin siya sa look ng makeup.
02:24.0
Hello, beautiful people!

03:21.0
And I'm very excited to see all of their outfits.
03:25.0
Because as you know, dressing is an art.
03:28.0
All the clothes that I wore are made by Filipino artists.
03:32.0
So kasama dun si Rahul Laurel, Puey Quiñones.
03:36.0
A lot of different Filipino designers.
03:39.0
And concept is fashion meets art.
03:43.0
So my favorite ensemble and outfit that I wore
03:48.0
was the one on the cover.
03:51.0
Yung meron parang, I think, abakayata yun.
03:54.0
I'm not really sure.
03:55.0
But that's my favorite one.
03:58.0
Because for me, parang siyang sabel.
04:00.0
I will be wearing a Mark Baumgarner dress.
04:03.0
It's going to be a very simple dress.
04:05.0
It's going to be a sleek dress and a sleek look.
04:09.0
We really want the look to be simple.
04:11.0
I will also be wearing Tiffany & Co. jewelry.
04:15.0
So it's very setting for me because I'm also a fan of Tiffany.
04:19.0
Shout out to Tiffany.
04:21.0
So I will be dressing up already.
04:24.0
So mamaya ipapakita ko sa inyo kung ano yung look.
04:35.0
Hi, I'm Leanne Ledesma.
04:37.0
And I'm Beya's stylist.
04:38.0
And I'm from Curator Studio.
04:40.0
Actually, it was a collaboration with Mark Baumgarner.
04:44.0
When he presented his ideas,
04:47.0
he wanted something clean and simple
04:50.0
but very technical on the construction.
04:52.0
And then when he presented that to us,
04:56.0
it was very much aligned with what we envisioned.
05:00.0
The shoes, we also partnered with Tiffany.
05:04.0
So the jewelry she'll be wearing will be from Tiffany.
05:08.0
And then for the shoes, it's a Versace.
05:14.0
So yeah, towering height for Beya.
05:18.0
Okay, so for Dom naman, we collaborated with China Mamawal.
05:23.0
The look of the couple is very cohesive.
05:26.0
So Dom is just dapper,
05:28.0
but the material of the fabric is very premium.
05:33.0
It was sourced from abroad,
05:35.0
but it's a mattified velvet finish.
05:37.0
So yeah, sleek lang.
05:39.0
Sleek for the both of them.
05:40.0
And that's what we like.
05:43.0
Good job, Leanne.
05:46.0
I love your coat.
05:51.0
Do you like the white nails?
05:53.0
You know, I love.
05:54.0
I don't like white nails.
05:55.0
Although I'm so tall.
05:57.0
Kama naman si Dom.
05:59.0
Siyempre, I'm so humbled to be picked
06:02.0
as the cover of this very special issue
06:05.0
because, you know,
06:06.0
I have been in the business for 20 years.
06:08.0
To be the face of this cover
06:10.0
is really a big deal for me.
06:12.0
We haven't done this type of silhouette with Bea.
06:15.0
So it's a very different take
06:17.0
on a glam outfit for her.
06:20.0
It's a full black outfit.
06:22.0
So actually, no skin bearing.
06:25.0
And the silhouette is very statuist.
06:28.0
Like what Mark said,
06:31.0
It's very simple,
06:32.0
but it's also very powerful.
06:51.0
It's really a sculptured dress.
06:53.0
And I wanted to showcase Mark's artistry and talent.
07:00.0
He really did well on this one.
07:33.0
Just hold the mic.
07:38.0
Thank you so much.
07:39.0
Our nature's rich cultural heritage
07:42.0
combined with the boundless creativity of our artists
07:46.0
has led to a flourishing art scene
07:49.0
that is both vibrant and diverse.
07:53.0
May I also recognize the presence
07:58.0
of established and well-known contemporary artists
08:04.0
Thank you for gracing us with your presence.
