My first images of Filipina beauty unfolded from the pages of my mother’s album, with pictures of Manila Carnival queens during the ’20s and ’30s. I was 7 years old, and I lingered on the pages showing the pictures of beauteous Miss Philippines; Miss Maria Katigbak of Batangas was the kayumanggi, Miss Pacita de los Reyes was fair-complexioned and mestisahin. Both were dressed like a queen and wore a bejeweled crown on their heads.
Women of a certain age are clothed in wisdom. Their maturity makes them comfortable in their own skin, making dressing up at best a no-brainer. Their taste in fashion has evolved intelligently, the style honed to a depth of quality and honesty. They own their own look.
