The Ayala Malls continues to provide its customers with innovative entertainment through Style Origin. Last April, the Ayala malls flew in 2 of the most influential faces in fashion today, America’s Next Top Model judge and photographer Nigel Barker and runway coach Miss J Alexander.
They were invited to do a series of talks in some key Ayala malls and also to meet and greet their fans. UNO was fortunate enough to be invited at their presscon that happened at the Makati Shangri-la Hotel where the media had the chance to ask both Nigel and Miss J questions regarding beauty, fashion, tips about modeling & photography, in fact there were a few walk-offs that happened during the presscon between Miss J and some of our top models here in Manila.
