“My dresses are one-of-a-kind and made-to-order. We cut, sew, and embroider everything by hand. When I say by hand, I literally mean stitch by stitch. So, sometimes, it takes several months for just one garment to be finished.” Said Oliver Tolentino to the AsianJournal.com who feature him on The Asian Journal MDWK MAGAZINE cover story published November 4, 2009.
The event presented live performances by upcoming sensational star Lianna Gutierrez and Monti Montanez, former member of the group Menudo who will release his CD this coming 2010 year.
“The LA fashion party was fabulous. It showcased Filipino talent at its finest-2 young singers to open and close the show, and the young Ricky Martin with his good looks and amazing energy.” Said Richie Selva who attended the event.
Mr. Selva concluded “The first collection of Marc Herrera was fun and sporty, the creations of Carmela Leelin was provocative and colorful, and the finale with Oliver Tolentino's creations simply took the audience's breath away, as one collective gasp came after another as each gown was paraded. Tolentino is the new Valentino!”
