Manage episode 367056470 series 3263378
Yes.
MESEARCH speaks to returning guest, Caroline Mangosing, the CEO and founder of VINTA Gallery and welcomes VINTA's Global Operations Manager, Sydney Cohen. VINTA Gallery offers a collection of "rebellious" Filipiniana clothing. In this episode, Caroline and Sydney reflect on a moment in which one of their original garments, stirred a bit of controversy on the Internet.
They designed a terno inspired by a sheer Swarovski crystal dress notably worn by Rihanna. The VINTA terno was modeled in a VINTA Gallery Instagram reel by Sydney herself. Reviews were mostly positive, with some critique and discussion over "modesty." Join us as we unpack this moment and discuss not only how fashion is a form of self expression, but how it can be used to engage deeply with Filipino culture and politics.
