Internationally renowned Filipino designer Michael Cinco brought a touch of heaven to Los Angeles Fashion Week 2022 with his collection “The Impalpable Dream of Peace”. Born from a vision of cultivating peace and love in a world in turmoil, the Dubai-based couturier’s pieces were simply elegant and ethereal, enchanting the crowd at Petersen Museum.

Filipino-American fashion photographer Dion Trinidad gives a glimpse of the magic behind the Michael Cinco Fashion Show with Errol Isip as the Casting Director and Show Producer.

Through Trinidad’s lens, we took an exclusive look at the stunning Michael Cinco Fall-Winter 2022 Collection. The white and black pieces were relaxed and flowing reminiscent of peace and serenity while three dazzling, ball gowns—inspired by the designer’s recent travels to Iceland—perfectly captured the essence of the aurora borealis.

A closer look at the new prêt-à-porter line adorned with gems, sequins, and feathers revealed exquisite, embroidered details and hints of volume, signature trademarks of the Cinco aesthetic.
