    Innovation in Product and Industrial Design

    Yet another breakthrough arena for Filipino imagination, ingenuity, and innovativeness in recent decades
    has been that of design. Specifically, this encompasses product and industrial design as applied to
    furniture, lighting, and interior accessories, as well as fashion from haute couture to bridal ensembles to
    casual wear. As a result, a number of Filipino designers have risen to superstardom both locally and
    internationally.
    Kenneth Cobonpue - Cebu-based Kenneth Cobonpue is a multi-awarded designer and the
    creative director ofHive, a design and manufacturing facility for designers of interior
    accessories and lighting. Cobonpue’s fresh and exciting concepts and excellent
    craftsmanship have earned him the acclaim and the patronage of discerning
    clientele the world over—including prominent Hollywood
    celebrities.

    Monique Lhuillier - Also hailing from Cebu City, Filipina


    fashion designer Monique Lhuillier first rose to prominence for her exquisite
    wedding gowns. But she has since become one of the darlings of the Hollywood
    celebrity set, with several A-list stars having worn her couture creations to gala events
    and award shows, as well as to their own weddings.

    Josie Natori - Born Josephina Almeda Cruz in Manila,


    this Filipino-American fashion designer began her career as an investment banker,
    before she made the dramatic shift to creating her own lines of lingerie,
    resort and lounge wear, as well as semi-formal and casual
    attire.

    Rajo Laurel - Probably best known to the general


    public as a judge on the television series Project Runway
    Philippines, Rajo Laurel is a much-admired Filipino fashion designer with a
    number of national and international awards to his name. He trained at New
    York’s Fashion Institute of Technology and at Central Saint Martin’s in
    London.

    Lulu Tan Gan - Known for her fashionable knitwear lines since 1985, Lulu Tan-Gan had
    been dubbed “The Queen of Knitwear” in the country.
    That specialty has since evolved into a new hand-woven line, called Indigenous Couture
    that blends Philippine artisan crafts, fabrics, fibers, and other local materials with Tan-
    Gan’s signature contemporary lifestyle dressing.
    Dita Sandico-Ong - Another
    Philippine designer who has been
    advocating the use of local weaving techniques and natural fibers is Dita
    Sandico-Ong. Known as the “Wrap Artiste” of the Philippines for her famous
    bold-colored wraps, Sandico-Ong first experimented with the local weave of
    Ilocos Sur, known as inabel, as well as with pineapple fibers blended with
    Irish linen, dubbed piñalino.
