After eons of snug fits and second skin, women—are we surprised?—are longing to exhale, let go and be comfortable.
Harlan + Holden got it right by giving women the silhouettes and supple fabrics that fall loose without being slouchy, soft yet flattering to the body.
Harlan + Holden’s pieces are fluid, relaxed, but still refined, unrestricted and sophisticated.
Women can wear Harlan + Holden in the corporate setting but still look glam and comfortable despite their busy lifestyle. The fabrics are light and let the skin breathe, the silhouettes playful, the no-nonsense designs easy to mix and match.
The brand is for the woman who is confident, not feeling the need to wear skin-tight or skin-revealing clothes just to draw attention to herself.
She has an active lifestyle, yet she doesn’t sacrifice style and femininity.
It is typical of Bea Rose Santiago, the Filipino who is the 2013 Miss International. She worked hard at bagging the title, proved her independence when she traveled alone to the pageant,
and despite the nerve-wracking schedule, still managed to look pretty and confident—and remained kindhearted enough—to win over her global audience.
Harlan + Holden is at Shangri-La Plaza, Power Plant Mall and Adora Greenbelt 5.
