Joey Samson

Last saturday, i insisted on joining my mom and my siblings in meeting with joey samson, a now very famous fashion designer. We needed him to make a very trendy suit for renan's junior-senior prom at the intercon on february 14. Joey used to make gowns and corporate attires for me, my mom, and meg. Come to think of it, all of our gowns pala sha gumawa. Back then assistant palang sha ni danilo franco who created clothes for showbiz people and politicians. Now joey has clearly made his name, big and bold, in the fashion scene. He now dresses lucy torres-gomez, pia guanio, kris aquino, richard gutierrez, all the bench models, and almost everybody in the A-list community. He is also a favorite of fashion magazines, lalo na MEGA magazine, always catch his name there. His style kasi is wearable haute couture, classic, vintage, na may accents and twists. This is what lucy torres has to say bout him,

I like Joey because his clothes are cut well, the finishing is clean, and although he is known for his asymmetric, androgynous look, I always ask him to concoct his take on a feminine dress and the result is always nostalgic and old-world—still girly but not sugary sweet.

Despite all these blinding prestige, fame, and shempre money, bait pa rin sha. First name basis pa rin kami and he addresses my mom with respect pa din. Not to mention the huge discount he gave us grabe!

Sa totoo lang, mahal pa din pero pag si bunsoy talaga, "name it, you have it" ang labanan hehehe
