Model and fashion content creator LA Aguinaldo talks about the valuable lessons he learned from Kapuso Global Fashion icon Heart Evangelista.
People often have this impression that attending Paris or Milan Fashion week is all glamor and crazy-fun time.
But behind the glitz and glamor of this fashion extravaganza is the reality that going from one event to another for a fashion house or brand can be a stressful situation.
In a chance interview with model-influencer LA Aguinaldo during a product launch of G-Shock at Atmos Philippines in BGC-Taguig this Friday (June 13) , the mestizo heartthrob talked about his own fashion week experience abroad.
LA also shared what he learned from Global Fashion Icon Heart Evangelista about handling the pressure of attending these busy events. He even described Heart like an 'Olympic athlete,' when he witnessed first-hand how the Sparkle star effortlessly managed her fashion week schedule.
“Kasi para siyang Olympic athlete. As in para siyang Olympics, sabi ko: 'Heart [Evangelista] para kang atleta tlaga'.” LA said to GMANetwork.com. “When I see her in Fashion Week, she's all over the place. One minute she's in this show, the next she's on the next show. And I asked her, 'how do we do it?'
“And she said it's all about time management and also planning ahead. Sabi niya, once you're there naman tuloy-tuloy na e. You just have to not forget to enjoy what you're doing.”
LA is a certified watch guy
LA was among the social media personalities and fashion content creators invited by G-Shock as the brand launched its stylish and innovative GA-V01 watch at Atmos Philippines BGC.
According to the popular commercial model, he has a soft spot for the brand growing up. He recalled, “Growing up I always had a G-Shock and I remember nung bata ako iniipon ko 'yung birthday money ko, Christmas money just to buy G-Shock.
“As I grew older, napapansin ko G-Shock it's always on the wrist of people. For me, it really means parang they pay respect to their heritage. So, when you pay respect to your heritage, you stand the test of time.”
“Nagiging relevant ka through the years.”
The leading fashion influencer also admitted that he is a "watch guy" and explained why it is a must-have accessory for men.
“It adds so much to an outfit and it's a way na ipakita mo rin 'yung personality mo. For me kasi watches means time is important for you and willing ka to make time for people.” LA noted. “Make time for important things, so for me, parang watches are a symbol also of hard work.”
