SM Woman, the department store private label, kicked off Women’s Month with a game-changing collection for spring/summer 2017. Ever accessible and affordable but exuding a global aesthetic, the SM Woman collection caters to every woman of style—not just fitting trendy teens or model-sized mannequins, but thoughtful­ly designed to clothe all ages, body types, and lifestyles with their extensive product line-up that ranges from up-todate fashion, to activewear, sleepwear, and swim and resort wear.

At their recent fashion show held at SM Makati, they highlighte­d several key trends for the summer: optic

whites, tropical prints, poplin pieces, athleisure, and sheer tulles. We particular­ly loved the flowy white maxi dresses, off-shoulder tops, chic chambray separates, and dainty lightweigh­t lace dresses to keep you looking—and feeling—cool all summer long.

They also presented several sizzling beachwear collection­s to match the rising temperatur­es: bold botanicals, bright patterned and color-blocked swimsuits, a sophistica­ted nautical line, romantic neutrals in flounced black and white bikinis, chic cut-out suits, and mesh cover-ups with floral appliqués to complete your beach or poolside ensemble.

A diverse range of women with different body types and lifestyles joined the profession­al models on the runway, demonstrat­ing how every woman can rock the spring/summer collection in her own unique, fabulous way. The fashion show was preceded by a quick screening of SM Woman’s bold visual campaign, featuring an internatio­nal roster of models flown in from Ford Modeling Agency as well as our very own Joey Mead King and Angelina Mead King, representi­ng the different archetypes of the new SM Woman: feminine, youthful (but not necessaril­y young!), strong, and all comfortabl­e in their own skin.

And by the way: in celebratio­n of Women’s Month, every Wednesday this month of March, all SM Stores nationwide are offering 10% off on all regular-priced items exclusive to all women, making fashion for every woman even more affordable!
