Vogue Philippines

In Paris, British Filipino designer @nicomede_talavera takes us to the showroom of his #Fall2026 collection, Sacred Journey. This marks @_nicomede’s return after three years, with debut womenswear and relaunched menswear inspired by the designer's childhood home and the paintings of National Artist Arturo Luz. Through sculptural tailoring, intricate mother-of-pearl embroidery, and cowrie shell detailing, the brand translates traditional Filipino craftsmanship for the modern era, rooted in Talavera's reflections on heritage and growth.
