Last November 18, Bench held another edition of their famous fashion show in Mall of Asia Arena with all their celebrity and model ambassadors. They had their first fashion show back in 2014 where the "The Naked Truth" show got controversial. This year, they made a come back thru the "Under the Star" fashion show as they are celebrating their 30th anniversary.
And before all the drooling and excitement we had during the show, I would like to share my experience what happened before the show started. I was actually a bit disappointed with how they organize this year's event because they kept the audience (us) wait outside the arena. Not just because I'm a bit early on the said time of the gate open but because the organizer is just so unorganized regarding the crowd coming to see the show.
I went to MOA a few hours prior to the show because I needed to get the actual tickets in the SM ticket booth and well, I was also hoping to get a better seat location too because I thought it will be the same as the last time were there are seat numbers but after receiving the tickets, I found out it was free seating. Anyway, we have two Lower Box ticket which is P2500 worth of Bench merchandise each.
The organizer kept us waiting outside the building and they still kept us waiting inside when they didn't allow us to enter the arena and wait in our seat. Well, for me, they shouldn't have put the tickets as free seating and make the people line up outside if they can't control the crowd.
Anyway, when we entered the arena we seated at the upper side of the stage because the lower box seats which happened to be our ticket as well were already taken while the best front row seats are either no entry or reserved already. We actually just decided to transfer seat before the show started because I believe it's not fair for us to be seated in the right row indicated in our ticket but seated in the wrong box.
The show lasted for an hour and I must say, despite how unorganized they are outside the arena, they did a great job in putting this fashion show into a success. Well, aside from underwears, Bench clothing, and gorgeous models, the show also featured acrobatic performances just like what they have back in 2014. I really enjoyed the show, who wouldn't, right?!
Here's a glimpse of some of the stars that walked the runway:
I love you Solenn Heusaff for having Nico Bolzico in your life. Hahaha! Okay, what I said is not connected with the show but anyhow, I love her for having a Nico in her life, I just love the couple. Period!
Of course, Paulo Avelino just knows how to make every girl scream their lungs out including me!
And who would miss Markki Stroem in the show? He together with Tom Rodriguez and Rocco Nacino definitely made the fashion show hotter, sexier and steamier.
The Yaya Dub ng bayan Maine Mendoza sure has a grand entrance. The crowd went wild as she went out and walk the runway, definitely one of the crowd favorites!
Aside from big stars Richard Gutierrez, Kim Chiu, Kathryn Bernardo, Daniel Padilla, Enrique Gil, Julia Barretto, Kim Domingo, Ruru Madrid, Diego Loyzaga and Enzo Pineda there are also other celebrity personalities and beauty queens both from ABSCBN and GMA walked the runway. And two of my faves are actually the Pusong Ligaw cast Bianca King and the sexy mommy Beauty Gonzales.
Wyn Wyn Marquez and Lovi Poe definitely win my heart. They are absolutely gorgeous and beautiful! Body goals I must say!
The last one who walked the runway is Pietro Boselli - the former mathematics teacher turned model then followed by everyone who participated in the walk and confetti, of course! They sure know how to end the show right, until next time Bench!
And by the way, I make sure to always have a photo in every moment I experience something so here's an obligatory photo with my brother after the Bench fashion show. Kelan kaya jowa na ang kasama ko? Charot!
