Last November 10, a myriad of celebrities, artists, fashionistas, and trendsetters flocked to the Rigodon Ballroom of the Peninsula Manila dressed to the nines in their best ternos. The event served as a book launch for 'Fashionable Filipinas: An Evolution of the Philippine National Dress' penned by Mark Higgins and Gino Gonzales and published by Ben Chan's Bench.

Of course, Kapuso stars wouldn't miss out on the event! Here are some of the attendees. 

Lovi Poe looks like a "Lakambini"

 

 

Dingdong Dantes holds up his own signed copy of 'Fashionable Filipinas.'

 

Max Collins is serving up legs for days!

 

Instead of going for an off-white Barong Tagalog, Rocco Nacino opted for a gray one with neon accents. 
 

Gabbi Garcia definitely stood out by choosing a very different silhouette. The billowy top paired with sleek and chic trousers is a knockout combo. 

Ruru Madrid's sweatshirt and Barong hybrid is a unique piece, but it totally works for him.
