Rustan’s Iconic Christmas Celebration Returns

The “Light up this Christmas with Rustan’s” campaign celebrated the post-pandemic rebirth and joy of the season. Rustan’s windows were filled with larger-than-life lights inspired by the Philippines’ parols, enveloping visitors in merriment. Notable attendees included Sofia Andres, Phoemela Baranda, Rachel Peters, Feliz Lucas, Pinky Tobiano, Christalle Belo-Pitt, Vanessa Matsunaga, Cat Arambulo Antonio, LA Aguinaldo, Jeff Ong, GP Reyes, his daughter Olivia, Dani Camcam, and Miko Carreon.

Each floor had its own special activity. On the Men’s and Beauty floor at the first level, guests watched musical and dance performances by Ellipsis, Skydance Avenue, Kammerchor Manila, and more. Moreover, Rustan’s The Beauty Source hosted a “Holiday Beauty Hunt,” which challenged guests to find hidden Christmas ornaments in exchange for goodies. Simultaneously, the men’s area offered a plethora of exciting experiences, including a cocktail mixing and tasting session with Jura, a shoe-cleaning activity with Crep Protect, board games with Gaming Library, and instant photo printing and personalized postcards calligraphy at the Montblanc booth. Guests also tried their luck with Euroo’s spin-the-wheel, or tapped into their inner creativity by crafting a one-of-a-kind patchwork tote bag at the Vina Romero booth.

With their favorite wine, beer, or cocktails in hand–thanks to the Philippine Wine Merchants–everyone enjoyed the rest of the night as they explored the various attractions, activities, and displays in the upper levels.

On the Women’s and Fine Jewelry floor at the 2nd level, guests indulged in a variety of immersive activities. From classic games like card memorization and ring toss to a unique jewelry exploration experience, there were plenty to enjoy. There were also many snap-worthy opportunities like the 360 Camera Photo Booth located at The Gallerie, a Mirror Booth at the shoes and bags area, as well as a glam self-shoot experience at the Silver Vault area. 

Rustan’s Makati has transformed its 3rd floor into a Christmas Wonderland called “Twinkle Town,” offering activities for children, including Jenga by Meet My Feet, 3D Christmas Ornaments Making by MyFirst, and educational activities by National Geographic, Learning Resources, and The Learning Journey. Parents can rejuvenate at the Key Coffee sampling booth while their children enjoy the fun. On the Home floor, patrons can enjoy family entertainment, carnival games, a photo booth, pizza and chocolate from Breville and Theo & Philo sampling booths, and special raffle prizes. Wines and spirits from Philippine Wine Merchants are also available. The launch event marked the return of the classic Rustan’s Christmas Registry, allowing customers to shop for loved ones during the holiday season. Rustan’s is also hosting a Charity Registry in partnership with a local welfare program to help vulnerable children during the season.
