Ipanema collection with Gerald

- —VER PAULINO

Ipanema, a fun, chic and colorful Brazilian-made sandals and flipflops, presented recently its newest collection in a romance-themed event dubbed the Ipanema Perfect Pair at the Trinoma Activity Center.

The event presented a variety of booths, tailored for each Ipanema flipflop style, for the enjoyment of attendees. They were Nail Art & Foot Spa, DIY Flower Crown and Foot Sticker Tattoo, and Make-up and Hair Styling.

Through an exciting fashion show, the three chosen finalists — those who posted the best “selfeets” in the online Facebook promo — took the runway to show off the distinct Ipanema summer styles: Sweet and Dainty, Sexy Chic and Bold and Artsy. The girl participan­ts then picked a random Ipanema pair and walked down the ramp.

Each distinct Ipanema summer style was designed to reflect the different personas and tastes of Ipanema’s fun, fashionabl­e wearers. “Ipanema knows that every wearer is unique, that is why for its newest collection, it has introduced three cool and individual styles — all designed to match different, free-spirited personalit­ies and identities,” shared ELRO Retail Corp. marketing head Cecille Loretizo.

Performers at the event were Ukelele artists led by Theobromin­e Band, Mang Pedring and Aia de Leon of Imago. And to top it all, The Perfect

Pair winner Niña Cañares from Marikina City won an unforgetta­ble kilig date with Gerald Anderson, plus an exciting allexpense paid trip to Shangri-La Mactan, Cebu.
