Kris Aquino, the new face of Figlia

2011-03-25T17:34:00.005+08:00

Kristina Bernadette Cojuangco Aquino commonly known as KRIS AQUINO (born February 14, 1971), the youngest daughter of former Philippine senator Benigno Aquino, Jr. and Corazon Cojuangco-Aquino, who served as the 11th President of the Philippines, and sister of Benigno Aquino, III, the current President of the Philippines, Filipino television and movie personality who gained prominence from her talk shows, game shows, and numerous endorsements.

She is tagged “Queen of all Media” because of her success in multimedia (television, movies, recording, publishing, and product endorsements). Advertisers rely on Aquino’s gift of gab, confidence, and charisma to effectively endorse their products and services.
Kris is certainly the favorite among endorsers in the Philippines. In fact, she is always named top celebrity endorser by most surveys and YES! the country's leading entertainment magazine. According to Yes Magazine, Kris is a favorite of advertisers because “she’s very easy to work with, and is very professional, arriving for a shoot prepared, with her lines memorized.” But Kris’s best asset is that “she connects well with consumers, whatever bracket of society they belong to.”
As one of the most visible stars in tinsel town, Kris's credibility and gift of gab have become the winning endorser qualities that give consumers the confidence to go for her brand of choice. More often than not, getting Kris as endorser is a good deal for advertisers.

Why advertisers like her: "Anak ng dating pangulo 'tapos may gall maging gano'n ka-annoying: that's actually a bit impressive, a feat. May subtle charm din ang irony ng panay niyang pagpapa-self-important sa konteksto ng supposed selflessness ng magulang at utol niya… [Compared to the perceived impenetrable quality of the Aquinos], refreshing naman ang apparent transparency ni Kris dahil non-stop siya sa kanyang pagdaldal 'to speak her mind when she feels like it.'" –Angelo Suarez of Ace Saatchi and Saatchi.
Celebrity endorsers continue to be a potent influencer in consumer purchases, as a study conducted by market research consulting company Synergy Business Consultancy revealed that 67% of its respondents bought a product or availed of a service due to a celebrity endorser. “If you’re in a controversy, it pays to be the aggrieved party. Such is the case with Kris Aquino. Much as a celebrity figured in a controversy, it seems that credibility to endorse may in fact be a good boost if he or she is considered the underdog. This is a very Filipino trait that we observe in our country,” said Germaine Reyes, Managing Director of Synergy.

Kris reaped box office success of self produced horror suspense movie Dalaw from the last last MMFF, also dubbed the “Queen of Game shows”Kris Aquino’s current TV shows are TV game program franchise "The Price is Right.", talent search Pilipinas Got Talent, and very soon a talk show with Ted Failon. Also coming up is a Teleserye starring Kris Aquino, Derek Ramsey, Anne Curtis & Diether Ocampo.

Kris Aquino is now the official endorser of Charter International, Inc./Figlia shoes. She will be the face in all our billboard ads and store display materials. Figlia is exclusive to SM Shoemart department stores nationwide. Remember to invite your friends to join our Facebook fan page and follow us on Twitter @figliashoes for more insider news, promos and surprises.

@figliashoes is so happy to report that @itsmekrisaquino is now bringing the premier ladies shoes all over the billboards of Metro Manila and beyond.

Shoe and Bag Trends for Spring-Summer 2009

2009-01-14T13:32:00.004+08:00

Shoe and Bag Trends for Spring/Summer 2009

The shoe is the “fetish” item for spring summer 2009. Every designer has been showing shoes that are just over the top, needless to say most of us would not get caught dead wearing some of these styles, the shoe is definitely taking center stage this season.

Season of Extremes

The secret to fashion for Spring/Summer 2009 lies in a blend of sensuality and sportiness. It is this interplay of casualness and chic that gives the new looks their relaxed and modern slant, now also in demand even for formal occasions. The matching shoes and bags exude a light-hearted freshness. Contrasts determine the picture: high-tech materials clash with natural leather. Brilliant, bright colors are juxtaposed with discreet neutral nuances. High heels will be competing with ultra-flat styles for shoppers' favor next season.

Colors
Three-color themes characterize shoe and bag fashions. The basis is formed by light, neutral colors with white (either clear or with a slightly grey hue), all cream and sand tones all the way down to moleskin and pearl grey. Dark brown and black serve as contrasting accent colors. Pastel shades will be re-defined next summer, fluctuating between milky pallid hues and sun-bleached neon lights. Flattering red tones include delicate apricot or rosé nuances while sherbet shades with shimmering effects exude summery freshness. Intense colors such as red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet feature as clear, monochrome tones also in the form of color blocking or in prints. Provided with black or white contours these colors obtain enormous brightness.

Materials The key priorities here are: soft and lightweight materials. Accordingly, the shoe and bag collections include many styles in supple lambskin nappa, soft patent leather and velvety nubuck. Special effects are produced by high-quality mock croc or python that are every bit as attractive as their genuine counterparts. Metallised leathers with a soft sheen are often combined with smooth or suede leathers. Patent and suede show these new colors to their best advantage. In tune with the eco-trend vegetable-tanned leathers with a natural touch and irregular shading or an antique finish continue to attract attention. Likewise, braiding is the latest trend for shoes and bags next summer. In contrast to this designers - not only in the sporty segment - focus on high-tech materials such as mesh, nylon, vinyl and lucite and as well as (often printed) textiles.

Shapes In the Spring/Summer season 2009 all shapes and lasts will be allowed. For women's shoes the spectrum ranges from oval, rounded shapes, (asymmetrical) wide square lasts to short and even longer points again. Alongside such classics as ballerinas (now featuring noticeably wider necklines), loafers, urban-chic sneakers and even plimsolls (a type of athletic shoe with canvas upper and rubber sole), more and more high-upper styles will be causing a stir now. These come as ultra-flat gladiator and/or Roman sandals featuring more or less wide straps. High-upper court shoes and high-heeled platform sandals look particularly sexy. Often these styles reveal either the heel or toes. Another key styling element of this new shoe fashion are T-straps and criss-cross ties across the instep. For men elongated lasts continue to dominate the business segment presented as Oxford shoes, slip-ons or summer boots. Above and beyond this, two shoe fashion classics are expected to herald a big comeback: the suede Desert Boot - predominantly presented in authentic, natural, sandy shades - and topsiders featured with light soles and clear, clean- cut uppers in flag colors. Indispensable: sneakers and chucks in bright colors featuring color blocking and graphic-art prints.

For women's bags volumes range from mega to clutch bags, the latter being fit for everyday use thanks to variable shapes and volumes. Alongside the soft-finish bags and pouches designers are now once again focusing more on "stand-alone" styles and short-handled bags. Decorative effects are produced by prints, embossing, pleats and batik patterns as well as by romantic floral or bowtie trims. Artisanal techniques, hand stitching and ethnic prints echo the "eco luxe" movement. Mid-summer flair is exuded by raffia baskets, large-format shoulder- strap bags and pouches featuring floral, graphic or patchwork motifs. For men weekend, bowling and cross-over bags now see competition from casual, sometimes X-large backpacks echoing mountaineering documentaries. A comeback of men's good old shoulder bags already points to clutch-bags for men, that should be "socially acceptable" by summer 2009 if not sooner.

Three trend themes for the 2009 Spring/Summer season:

ENERGIZING - CONTEMPORARY - FLUORESCENCE

ENERGIZING Intensity, luminosity, modernity. Shoes and bags "bathe" in rich, summery colors. This theme oozes with optimism and joie de vivre. ("joy of life")

CONTEMPORARY Graphic clarity, brightness, lightness, neutral colors, high-quality materials and purist shapes give shoes and bags a modern, urban slant.

FLUORESCENCE Sensuality, freshness, liveliness. Flower tones, pastel shades and shimmering metallics promise a sparkling mix of romanticism and erotic appeal.

"The Sweet Life with Lucy Torres" feature of Figlia, M.Nicole, Shūbizz and Figliarina Shoes and Bags [taping]

2007-07-25T12:33:00.002+08:00

Figlia, M.Nicole, Shūbizz and Figliarina shoes and bags are featured in "The Sweet Life with Lucy Torres". The show taping started around 12 midnight but we sure had a blast. Ms. Lucy Torres was such a gracious and elegant host and with fun model turned showbiz personality Wilma Doesnt around it was indubitably a delightful evening.

Elegant and sophisticated Lucy Marie Torres-Gomez breakthrough to fame was when she appeared in a shampoo series of commercials co-starring with Richard Gomez who eventually asked her hand in marriage in real life. Lucy is definitely one of the country's most beautiful faces and still an a-list product endorser.

A memorable reunion with Rosemarie Sonora

2007-07-24T11:24:00.001+08:00

Fondly remembered as the Princess of Sampaguita Pictures in the 1960’s, who played her first-starring role in Ulilang Anghel, Rosemarie Sonora was launched with nine other promising starlets as Stars ’66 (including Gina Pareño, Shirley Moreno, Blanca Gomez and the late Loretta Marquez; and the Rodriguez brothers Ramil and Pepito, Bert Leroy Jr., and the late Dindo Fernando and Edgar Salcedo), the predecessors of the ’80s’ Regal Babies, the ’90s’ Star Circle and the New Millennium’s StarStrucks.

Rosemarie together with sister Susan Roces are long time family friends and were product endorsers of my father Ceferino’s Meg’s shoes in the 1950’s and 60’s. We got together for lunch reminiscing the good old times with my aunt Virgie yesterday at Gloria Maris Greenhills and dropped by Shūbizz boutique at The Shops.

Pia Guanio wears Figliarina by Shūbizz

2007-07-20T11:45:00.001+08:00

Pia Guaino was known as "Traffic Angel Pia", a daily traffic reporter for FM stations where she did the report from a helicopter, was a staff for a TV News feature show - "The Inside Story" before she became a celebrity. Pia, who describes herself as an old soul, says she brings her own brand of journalism to the shows that she hosts, be it the show biz talk show "S-Files," "Chika Minute" on "24 Oras," or the variety show "Eat Bulaga!"

Every Sunday, she dishes out information about the best buys, best hideaways, best eats, sexiest 40-year-old actors, most sensational show biz stories -- just about anything -- in the lifestyle show "Pinaka," aired on QTV 11, which lists the top 10 of nearly everything. "My training is in news and current affairs," she notes. "I had four years of that before I got caught in the entertainment business. I don't think of "S-Files" as just a gossip show. We are always very careful, and we verify everything before airing the material. We don't air anything that we just heard or read about. That's why I can do news programs [because of the reputation for credibility that I've earned]."
