Moda MindaNow is a fashion designing competition of different regions in Mindanao. It happens every year during Kadayawan Festival in Davao City. Last August 16, 2015 I was invited by Davao Bloggers Society to attend this event. I’ve heard about this since last year and I’m excited about it. As the event started all the designers and models are preparing back stage to walk the ramp. When the ethnic music stars to beat all camera are pointing directly to the ramp. There are three categories during the contest.

Couture – It’s a high fashion formal wear that shows the creativity of the designers.
Winner with this category received P 15,000 for 1st runner-up, P 10,000 for the 2nd runner-up and 3rd runner-up P 5,000

Innovative Passion – It’s a fashion where designers use different types of fabric materials.
Winner with this category received P 20,000 for 1st runner-up, P 15,000 for the 2nd runner-up and 3rd runner-up P 10,000

The non-winners also received P3,000 as consolation prize.

Winners from Koronadal City








All of the designers did a good job. They are very creative especially the winners who came from Koronadal City Mr. Sherwin Tiongson, Duhata and Archie Castillo . Their works really surprised me. I can’t wait for next year!

Mr. Jared Sercaño, the finalist in the reality TV show Runway Philippines showcase his B'laan-inspired collection who also happens to be Moda Mindanow 2014 top choice for the long gown competition. 




To all Mindanao designers, keep on inspiring young designers!
