Summer, at least in the Philippine­s, is all about traveling to a desired destinatio­n. In the season of sun, fashion seeks the next on-the-radar location to reveal the latest in trendsetti­ng style.

Global retail has found the need and relevance in creating pieces or ready-to-wear lines to supply growing market demands. Since two years ago, designer brands have begun to create new fashion for traveling. Passportre­ady wardrobes for the season are created not only for the jetset but for everyone. In modern times, this fashion collection is known as destinatio­n wear.

Manila’s style- setting landscape is ready to conquer any destinatio­n this season. After its trip to Morocco last month, Seek The Uniq (STU) is paving a new direction for summer 2017’s destinatio­n wear. As a barometer and vanguard of local bohemian lifestyle, STU has got its bags packing with a bunch of must-haves for your long- overdue beach and resort vacay. These curated pieces by STU’s purveyor of fashion and Women of Allure 2016 awardee Mikka Padua are practical for beach and resort destinatio­n dressing from day to night.

This season’s picks are: long and short tunics, embroidere­d wrap dresses, summer long dresses, sling bags, statement earrings, asymmetric­al printed tops and printed jumpsuits. “The dresses and jumpsuits are easy to style. They’re throw- on- and-go types that can easily be dressed up or down,” says Mikka.

In this day and age of no- rules fashion, Seek The Uniq offers a refreshing, modern bohemian point of view. Fashion is fun and fearless under the heat with a wardrobe ready for any sun- seeking destinatio­n. Take on a new travel vibe with a new dress code, a fun play of prints and tapestry of textures that will surely get you noticed. Get thrilled in experiment­ing and dressing up by adding on a statement bag or an accessory that will surely add accent to any ensemble. The bohemian look is still on a global high as parameters and borders continue to extend and reach new territorie­s. After all, contempora­ry fashion continuous­ly evolves and is all set to f ly to any summer destinatio­n.
