My Interview With Style Icon Cecile Van Straten




(Vote for Cecile as Samsung's Style Icon.)

MEET Manila's one and only authority on fashion, Ms. Cecile Van Straten.

###1 okay, first off, let's talk about you and your husband, how long have you been married to Jeroen? 5, 10, 15 years?

Jeroen and I were married in 2000, so that would be 9 years in Nvember.


###2 Girl, human beings gracing the international internet-s are talking about your styyyyle! Who/what defines YOUR style?

What defines my style? I guess no color, neutrals, comfort and interesting patterns.

###3 You suddenly took a big leap,from designing clothes to writing...did you ever tire of designing?

I got tired of working with sewers and going to Divisoria, and I got tired of “the industry”. Food industry is friendlier and easier.

###4 Now you have a huge FANBASE here in Manila (and they all had altars erected in honor of chuvaness)...do you have plans to release an all out how-to book on styling anytime soon?

No plans on book, but I’m collaborating with a clothing store. Pieces should come out this year.
