culte-femme-01.jpgCulte Femme held a fashion show recently showcasing the new collection of its designer, Hindy Webber-Tantoco.

A full-time designer for Rustan’s U, U Swim, and of course, Culte Femme, Hindy is more than just a pretty face. Already eight months pregnant with her third child, she’s very hands-on with her recent fashion show. By the way, she was still wearing 3-inch heels!

For this collection, Hindy drew inspiration from the 40s and the 70s because she wants her clothes to have a nostalgic feel. Femininity is also something she focused on for this collection and this is very evident in the pastel colors she used.

Here are pictures from the fashion show!

High-waist pants, ribbons, large button details, and the ruffled tops –a pleasant mix of 40s nostalgia and 70s retro.

Pink croco peep-toe wedge, P1650.

Though metallic shorts can give us a futuristic impression, Hindy was able to show that pairing it with a 70s-inspired top can work!

Heard lots of “ahhhs” when this dress came out. And it’s only P2650!
