SOTANGHON!: The Sona Fashown Show

Apart from beauty pageants, awards nights and football games (WEH!?) isa sa mga inaabangan ko ay ang State of the Nation Address (SONA). Not just because the president gets to report the accomplishments of the current administration but also because of the now known SONA Fashown Show.

It's funny that most Filipinos consider SONA as the Oscar's Red Carpet of the Philippines. Well inatemmpt ng Luna Awards way back in the early 2000's-complete with Porsches and Jaguars (mag-research kung hindi alam) pero na-wit...pinilit pa kasi magpaka-sosyal. But in this event we see real designer gowns, gems and luxury cars paraded in Congress as if mocking the poor and the oppressed in our society. (Mareng Winnie, ikaw ba yan?!?! CHAROT)

Anyway, just like the President's Speech, may mga outfit na nasa tuwid na daan, may nasa daang-lubak lubak at merong mala-wangwang sa ka-chakhan!

Ladies, gentemen ang beqleengs, this is:

SOTANGHON
S
tate of the Terno and Nationalistic Gowns: Huwaw Or 'Nudaw???


Let's start with those with HUWAW Factor! Eto ang mga kasuotang tila nasa tamang at matuwid na landas

O diba? Diyosang-diyosa lang ang peg! The color matches her complexion and her hair. And I like the fact that it had lots of details but were made to blend with the gown itself.


Our very own Vice Mayor came in this very simple number. Di kasi kelangan bongga lagi. And I like the make-up too! The touch of pink gave her just the right amount of glow!


Eto naman so dainty and classic. Kaya naman sosyal na sosyal lang at hindi trying hard.

But of course it's okay to put a modern twist like this one...

I love how different fabrics were used to add a little flair to what could have been a boring white gown. Take note, maayos ang pagkakagawa. Hindi mukhang petticoat!

Speaking of twists, eto award na award!

Simple at first glance. Nothing worthy of praise. But if you look closely, notice how the embroidery of a traditional barong was created on the dress. Ang galing lang ng nakaisip!

And then there are those na tila naiwan sa daang mabato at lubak-lubak:

TULONG!! NAKAWALA YUNG MANOK NA PANABONG NG TATAY KO!!!!!

Speaking of manok...
Ma'am sino po bang peg natin dito?

Si Black Swan or si Miley Cyrus? heeeheeeheee

Nako di ko mahulaan. I bet siya, kaya niyang manghula...

Gusto ata kabugin si Madam Auring!!!!

Meanwhile, may nagpapalaganap ng Save Mother Earth Campaign

Environment Friendly vibe po ba ang gusto niyo? In fair, achieve na achieve po yan ng inyong ECO TOTE gown!

Pero kung ayaw niyo ng malaking tote bag...


MAG POUCH BAG KA LANG! Nako kaya pala naubusan ng pouch yung mga nagbebenta ng PRESWUTER PURLS sa Greenhills!


Grabe nakakainit ng dugo ang mga suot nila!! I think I need to cool myself down with

TWIN POPSIES!!!! CHUICE!

Or pray that some superhero will save the day tulad ni
ULTRAMAN!!!!!

But wait there's more, kaya naman hindi mawala-wala yang lubak na daan dahil may mga WANG WANG pa rin sa lipunan na kelangan sugpuin. These are the common crimes that lead to bigger problems. Ang mga anay na sumirira sa pundasyon ng lipunan. Meganon??

For example...
PAGNANAKAW

Hoy table runner namin yan!!! Ibalik mo!!!!


PAGMAMALIIT SA IBA


Teh, alam mo na bang naimbento na ang Alterations Plus???

PADRINO SYSTEM

Hello Ninang! Mano Po!

BRIBERY

Nako naman, nag-abala pa kayong magpa gift wrap!

at ang napaka-kontrobersyal na

PORK BARREL FUND!

Grabe natatakam ako sa bacon ngayon na!

Well its just PNoy's first year in office so there are still a lot of things to be done. And as we hope and work hard for the transformation of our beloved country sana sa mga susunod na SONA fashion show, mas marami na ang nasa matuwid na daan!

Baboo!
