When they said Urban Jungle Fashion I did not expected that we would be actually transported into a jungle. Ipanema’s Urban Fashion Show at Bonifachio High Street last week left us in awe.

Ipanema transformed Bonifacio High Street to a mystical jungle where the Ipanema’s newest collection was paraded. The fashion show was patterned in a story telling manner and each mystical animal danced and made an impact to the audience.

A jamboree of mystical animals which included the playful and graceful dolphin; the sleek and agile “Jacob” of the land: the wolf. Also making his regal presence felt was the king of the jungle, lion with its powerful and intimidating stance. Completing the fashion soiree was the vibrant and sophisticated peacock; the soaring eagle with its potent sexual energy; the meek and mild gazelle that represents those with laid back taste; the sexy and imperial snake; the eye-catching ostrich; the zebra which dons its uniqueness in every possible way; and the funny and quirky caterpillar, which transformed into a glamorous butterfly as its fellow animals strutted their way into the urban jungle, a place where there is boundless freedom to express one’s definitive flair and need for comfort. Indeed, it was a runway spectacle like no other.

Spotted during the event were popular celebrities and top models: Enchong Dee, Phoemela Baranda, Ornussa Cadness, Mia Ayesa, Peter Norrdell. Mommy Bloggers were also present!

Bambu Highstreet  also opened that day:
