<p>Our favorite celebration of embracing Filipino heritage through innovation is back!</p><div><br/></div><p>Last October 21, <em><strong>Ternocon</strong></em> launched their third edition, which focuses on highlighting the balintawak. This version of the <em>terno</em> can be identified by a soft kerchief, or <em>alampay</em>, and a cloth wrapped around the waist, or tapis. In line with Ben Chan’s advocacy and vision, the finalists will design <em>balintawaks</em> that show significance to our culture, while remaining relevant to the current generation.</p><div><br/></div><p>This year will feature 12 finalists who come from all over the Philippines. The finalists are Amor Albano, Glyn Alley Magtibay, Bon Hansen Reyes, and Gabbie Sarenas from Luzon; Bree Esplanada, Karl Nadales, Al Rey Rosano, and Marc Carcillar from Visayas; Glady Rose Pantua from Mindanao; Yssa Inumerable, Cheetah Rivera, and Dee Javier from the National Capital Region; and semifinalist Geom Hernandez from Batangas.</p><div><br/></div><p>Along with the finalists, the mentors for this year, Joey Samson, Chito Vijandre, Ricky Toledo, and Dennis Lustico, and previous Ternocon winners, Hannah Adrias, Jaggy Glarino, Dinnes Obusan, Bon Hansen Reyes, and Cheetah Rivera, presented some of their work at the<em> Ternocon 3</em> press release.</p><div><br/></div><p>The final competition will be held at the new CCP Black Box Theatre on January 28, 2023. Each finalist will present 2 <em>balintawaks</em>, and their mentors, along with Hannah Adrias, will be presenting their very own <em>terno</em> collections.</p><div><br/></div><p>Check the gallery below to see the looks that were featured during the runway launch!</p><div><br/></div><div class="article-content" itemProp="articleBody"><div class="media-content"><div class="slider-for"><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/d8e6047d-9eb1-49ec-9e8b-5eab3f186c26_b-bench-ternocon-2022.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/7782a6c4-2232-4280-9440-ad61392c732e_5.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/40e41016-cfd0-4f89-a181-1ba28d378b59_6.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/c9d657d7-ec09-49e2-bfde-86a56aee339d_7.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/626f8e5e-b5d4-42a9-93a7-4b35c5942c3b_4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/c4603786-c2f3-408e-b642-6036363b171d_8 (1).jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/a4bebdd5-ce19-4dd7-bdaf-9ba38ebd4051_9.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/1bf5c72c-1b6b-442a-a0f0-918f254950a5_10.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/66dc92b3-c149-4566-9ce8-a2981882a159_11.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div></div><div class="media-content slider-desc"><div class="item-desc"><div></div></div><div class="item-desc"><p> - Dennis Lustico presented two beautifully contrasting pink terno looks as he was welcomed as one of this year’s Ternocon mentors.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p> - Mentors Chito Vijandre and Ricky Toledo reminded us how well they artistically mix patterns and laces in these two terno looks.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p> - These three modern and innovative takes on the classic terno were showcased on the Ternocon launch runway by mentor Joey Samson.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p> - Ternocon 2020 Gold Medalist Hannah Adrias teased her 10 piece terno collection to be shown at Ternocon 3 with a cropped top and pant terno look.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p> - Jaggy Glarino, Ternocon 2020 Silver Medalist, showed us how innovative he can be through his balintawak design featuring tweed fabric.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p> - Bronze Medalist Dinnes Obusan of Ternocon 2020 showed us how to elegantly add a twist to the terno without changing it completely.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p> - Ternocon 3 finalist Cheetah Rivera introduced herself to the runway by presenting a fresh embroidered terno ensemble.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p> - Bon Hansen Reyes, another finalist for this Ternocon, switched up the terno through the design’s grey color and unique cut outs.</p></div></div></div></div><div><em>Photo Courtesy of Bench </em></div><div><br/></div>
