An edgy & luxe Kikay holiday

By now, you are in the thick of the holidays and the haze of parties and get-togethers don’t seem to be waning. As it may be the most social time of the year for you, a trip to the mall to add some vital pieces to your holiday wardrobe won’t seem that farfetched. In fact, all the merrymaking and revelry might call for it.
 One brand that is set to bring something completely different to your closet this holiday season is Kikay through its sub-brand Pink Sapphire by Kikay. Known primarily for its accessories, Kikay is joining the clothing retail wagon in a big way with its offering of luxe pieces that seem to embody the velvety-rich spirit of the yuletide season. Its High Luxe Holiday Collection boasts of standout pieces with leather, rich lace and brocade fabric molded into sexy silhouettes and softened by touches of faux fur and feathers.
 Particular favorites from the collection that Managing Partner Timmie Chua’s friends are calling “Chanel meets Alexander McQueen” are short skirts done in layers of lace and fur trim, textured tights in geometric patterns and cropped jackets decorated with pearl clusters. When perfectly paired with Kikay’s layers of pearls, sparkling cuffs and gold-tone neckpieces, they make for ensembles that exude a polished sheen of sophistication that will make any girl the life of her party.
 To add to its appeal, Kikay employed the unique creative eye of Jo Ann Bitagcol to photograph the collection and Luis Espiritu to style it. Going beyond what the masses expect of a brand like Kikay, it is finding a winning proposition in going the high road of being couture-like. Tastes run rich this season and Kikay obviously has the goods to suit the market’s penchant for just that.
