Rajo Man: Purveyors of Style

Menswear in Manila is celebrating fashion.  In the last decade, the number of retail labels seem to have multiplied by the minute and so has the number of designers.  No longer playing second fiddle to what used to be the bigger market for clothing(women), these tell-tale sign of the times is giving equal style attention to both men and women.  Chic and forward pieces are visibly growing in great numbers and is no longer limited to something custom made or merely settling with boring items on the rack.  For the modern man, style is no longer a lingering accessory but an essential.  Making a trademark in the expanding world of local menswear is Rajo Man.  A brainchild of Rajo and brother John, the brand is the answer to the growing demands of fashionable men in Manila.  What gives the brand the edge is their uniqueness in designed, distinct high level of taste and limited number of pieces. Rajo Man is fashion forward and aesthetically deeply rooted in the masterful art of tailoring.  The mix of tradition and contemporary design with current detailing creates a whole new perspective and interpretation to menswear in the Philippines.  Sleek and dashing with a hint of vintage, the old-new look is undoubtedly spot on the radar.  With his brimming artistry, fashion expertise and sharp business acumen, Rajo Laurel is set to pave the way in creating and broadening the expanding market with no style restrain.  Here is a glimpse of the latest collection of Rajo Man coming out this coming March and is available at the House of Laurel. Will be posting the entire set of pictures of this shoot after the launch.
