Rustan’s Makati hosted Rustan’s Moments of Summer on April 5, offering guests a luxurious summer getaway. The store’s interiors evoked the Mediterranean’s beauty, blending natural elements and breezy hues for a seamless fusion of oceanic adventure and refined living. The event celebrated the season with curated collections and elevated experiences, capturing the essence of resort living. The cruise-inspired event offered guests an afternoon of style and exploration, featuring exclusive summer offers, exciting promos, immersive brand experiences, and interactive activities. The event evoked the spirit of an opulent coastal allure.
The journey began outside where Rustan’s iconic window displays transformed into elegant portholes overlooking a world of nautical luxury with each vignette inviting everyone aboard with its curated selection of the season’s most coveted selections from resort-chic fashion, breezy menswear, stylish children’s ensembles, indulgent beauty must-haves, and coastal-inspired home accents.
The heart of the festivities started at the Horizon Deck (5th Floor), where guests were greeted by the smooth grooves and high-energy summer vibes of DJ Tolo and Markus, summer cocktails from Philippine Wine Merchants, and desserts from Venchi to complete the summer soirée. Playful touches elevated the summer experience, including classic deck games like ring toss to a bespoke straw hat station complete with personalized ribbons to finish off their summer style. Art lovers were captivated by a stunning exhibit by Arthur Tselishchev & Marco Coching and a live painting session by Tara Soriano, where each brushstroke brought the magic of summer to life, and proceeds of any purchase from the artists will go to their chosen charity.
The event turned up the heat with a stunning fashion show highlighting the must-have looks of the season, including breezy linens, chic resort wear, colorful coordinates, sun-kissed hues, and statement swimwear—all perfect for your next luxurious escape. Fashion meets the breeze of the sea with Seafolly, Maaji, and Rip Curl’s eco-conscious resort wear in flattering silhouettes, while Aldo Martins, Adolfo Dominguez, and Lady Rustan introduced effortlessly chic dresses and sets bursting with color and texture.

Accessories completed the looks with bold yet elegant pieces from Alexis Bittar, whose earrings, cuffs, and bangles brought playful sophistication to every ensemble.
