Gilded Geometry Terno is built around contrast. The silhouette holds its volume firmly, but never feels heavy or decorative for the sake of effect.
The bodice is kept in deep black, anchoring the look visually. From there, the butterfly sleeves rise with sharp, deliberate lines. They recall the traditional Filipiniana form, yet feel restrained and precise, framing the shoulders without drawing attention away from the body’s natural line.
What truly defines the piece is the skirt. Its layered, open structure creates space rather than mass. Gold-toned lines appear suspended, catching light as the model moves. From certain angles, the skirt feels almost transparent, allowing motion to remain visible instead of concealed.
A subtle metallic accent at the waist separates upper and lower sections cleanly. The shortened length keeps the proportions clear and avoids visual weight, especially under runway lighting.
Within the Constructed Light collection, this terno feels intentional and focused. It keeps the presence of classic Filipiniana volume, but strips it down to structure, spacing, and light — nothing more.
