F.A.R.M. is ON the Runway!

F.A.R.M. is neophyte no more. It's now officially on the runway!

The Department of Trade and Industry in collaboration with ABS-CBN, held the One-Town-One Product (OTOP) Flair & Fashion on 24 September 2009 at Villa Caceres Hotel, Naga City. The by-invitation-only affair showcased the best products of the Bicol region.

Emcees Jay Percival Ablan (a Baaoeno) and partner Analyn both wore F.A.R.M. accessories

Rommel del Valle's (a fashion designer also from Baao) and Bernadette de los Santos' exquisite creations were chosen by the DTI to be the main products to endorse in the OTOP congress. Both Rommel and Bernadette create world-class clothing line and accessories, respectively.

Cocktail dresses made mostly of dried water lily stalks and mother of pearl buttons dominated the runway.

These chic creations were perfectly accentuated by the newly-launched F.A.R.M. necklace-and -bracelet ensembles.

Rommel understands a woman's body and creates only the loveliest clothing that befits her. F.A.R.M. lets out all her hidden beauty. And perfects her.

And they understand and perfect men, too.

Every woman would readily say "I do" with these magnificent wedding gowns with bodice made out of dried water lily, and F.A.R.M.'s shelley pieces hugging the necklines.



The gowns and accessories absolutely and positively got nothing out of the ordinary.

Murmurs of curiosity and admiration filled the air.

Rommel and partner Alex proved that Baao and the Bicol region have a really promising future in the fashion industry.

And F.A.R.M. with its totally unique character, has consistently showed that vintage button accessories aren't a 'blast from the past' fashion but are trendy enough to be worn by a fashion model.

Standing ovation, please?!
