Preview Celebrates in Style

Preview's Best Dressed party last month was special to me, as I went to support friends who are part of the best dressed list.  I sat with one of them that night—Keri Zamora who is one of my closest friends to date :)

Preview magazine launched its Best Dressed issue this month with a nostalgic look at the grooviest club of the ‘70s, Coco Banana, transporting guests back to the glory days of camp Manila. Says the magazine’s editor-in-chief Pauline Suaco-Juan: “Indeed, many Preview readers are oblivious to the Seventies and its icons because they hadn’t been born then. Doing the Preview Ball in a “Pinoy in the Seventies” led us to another camp icon, the nightclub Coco Banana, which was touted as the Studio 54 of the Philippines.”


The placed was packed and full of media people hungry to cover:
