What better way to receive the highest recognition of the Philippine government to Filipino individuals and organizations overseas than with an elegant creation by legendary fashion designer Michael Cinco — who was also a recipient of the same award in 2014.

Multi-awarded Filipina CEO and Managing Director of New Perspective Media Group and Publisher or The Filipino Times Dr. Karen Remo received the prestigious Presidential Award 2021 (Pamana ng Pilipino Award category) donning Michael Cinco’s own iteration of the Filipiniana.

The sultry style of the gown flatters the body but one that’s regal and formal and evokes the Filipino culture. It had a semi-sweetheart neckline accentuated with a single butterfly sleeve.

With intricate waves of structured mosaic patterns, the ensemble was bejeweled with glittering crystals that cascaded down the dress. “This mermaid gown was made with full Swarovski crystals, with a dramatic terno sleeve on the left side,” said Cinco.
