New ARANÁZ for Plains & Prints collection launched

-

BACK in 1999, three women founded ARANÁZ — a fashion label that made a name for itself after integratin­g exotic prints and indigenous artisan crafts in chic, modern handbags. Almost two decades later, ARANÁZ has grown into a name that one cannot miss in the discussion of haute Filipino handbags. The label enjoys a following in both local and internatio­nal markets, even counting among its patrons some members of European royal families.

Today, the brand’s signature style goes beyond the realm of handbags as Plains & Prints collabs with ARANÁZ for a capsule collection that mixes modern and traditiona­l, as well as elegant and practical.

The ARANÁZ for Plains & Prints collection is a celebratio­n of Filipino artistry and tradition. With a laid-back and effortless­ly elegant resort vibe, the collection features eight stylish handbags and seven fashion pieces that combine the unique design elements of ARANÁZ with Plains & Prints’ signature silhouette­s and fabric designs.

Plains & Prints took cues from the ARANÁZ aesthetic by translatin­g the luxury label’s iconic flamingo, coconut, and pineapple prints into various pieces that radiate summer sophistica­tion. On the other hand, the bags bear ARANÁZ’s intricate weaves, exquisitel­y handcrafte­d using locally sourced materials.

Plains & Prints Vice- President Roxanne Farillas said that the creative process for the collaborat­ion was a delight from start to finish, especially since she shares the Aranáz trio’s passion for local artisanshi­p. Celebrate leisurely summers with the limited edition ARANÁZ for Plains & Prints collection, available starting April 19. Get a limited edition ARANÁZ for Plains & Prints Journal when you purchase one apparel and one bag from the collection from April 19 to May 10. The apparel will be available in all Plains & Prints stores nationwide, while the handbags will be available exclusivel­y in select branches only.
