  1. IMITATION! Pinoy designers just copy from legit international designers. They do not have the capacity to make their original designs.

    1. True that. Most pinoy designers gumagaya na lang nila sa ibang bansa. Wala na ba silang maisip na design on their own

    2. Kelan ba natin titigilan ang pagpapahiram ng mga designs natin sa mga banyaga para Di tayo naaakusahang gumaya lang?!!!! Nauuna tuloy sila Dahil me means sila! Tigilan ang pagpapahiram natin dapat! Rajo is the most innovative designer of all time! Edwin tan and vania romoff are two of the best in the world! -

    3. Si Michael Cinco lang naman ang hindi manggagaya. At baka si Cary Santiago din.

    5. anon 1:32 ehhhh think again micheal cinco notoriously copied one of Dior couture dress before. and judging from the starmagic ball na mini fashion show niya, he did it again.


      pinoy designer are lazy designers. they can't innovate at all. it the truth.
      ang daming inspiration sa pinas like our traditional clothes from different region, bakit hindi kaya nila e-evolve yung mga damit na ganon.

    6. obvious na imitation yun gkay tintin and angel.. kay shaina, inspiration lang..

    7. imitation? where and what part? what i see are 4 different gowns. I design too, not gowns though, but Im an artist in general. It's demoting and a big no-no in our part to imitate other works, in this case, basing from what i am seeing, the gowns are not ersatz. The designer might have used some schemes as an "inspiration" but it is not imitation. I am a designer, I can spot differences... nakakatawa lang na yung mga taong walang alam sa designing ay sya pang may lakas ng loob na magcomment at mangutya about designs and fashion! =)

    3. Ano bang meron kay shaina at di siya sumikat sikat talaga? Or should i say ano bang wala sa kanya? Nalink na sa mga sikat jlc papa p pero wala pa rin eh. Anong problema natin girl?

    4. Anonymous 1:00 AM ikaw ang may problema teh. Ang showbiz di sprint,kundi marathon. It's better to have a steady but constant job than a rocket career that quickly goes away.

      Delete
    5. Pero sa mga kasabayan niya na kasing tagal na niya sa showbiz, naiwanan na talaga siya. Bea alonzo, angelica p. siya lang talaga yung walang solo movie walang primetime soap na siya ang bida. Panghapon lang ang beauty at pang support forever. So that does mean na she really lacks something.

    8. Mas maganda tignan si Shaina kaysa ang original. Si Angelica naman, parang hindi kasya, poor fit, poor imitation.

      Delete
    9. Perfect fit ang gown ni Shaina.

    10. Kung gamitin mo Yang utak mo sumikat na siya noong bata siya,Kaya huwag niyong ikumpara sa iba,mas gusto ko pa mga underrated na actress kesa overrated,sila yung madaling mawawala siya showbis at higit sa lahat madaling pagsawaan dahil over expose sa tv,

  7. rajo talaga ang number one sa panggagaya!

  8. Love love love AP's dress! Mukha siyang guest from hollywood. Aparrition talaga. Very ethereal ang dating. Shaina also i like her dress, pero super naman sa pag bare ng skin front and back. Sana either front or back but not both. Pero i love the modern sexy feel of the dress. Kristine on the other hand, looks like a cheap imitation of Zuhair's original creation. Ang pangit ng upper part.

    1. agree! ang pangit nga nung pagkakadesign ng top part ni kristine. sakto sa boobies masiado, nagmukhang bra. sana kung manggagaya, ung better version naman gawin

      Delete
    2. True, manggagaya na nga lang edi sana tinodo na diba ang pangit tuloy ng kinalabasan nung kay kristine. Best in matrona look rin ang pagkakaayos sa kanya.

    3. Angelica is a poor imitation. Gwyneth's gown is chic.

  12. Oa talaga ang dos. Star ball ng mga starlets nilang talents. Kung itinulong nalang sana sa mga mahihirap iyang mga nagmamahalang gown na pinaggagastusan sa walang kwentang occasion.

    1. Wag kang OA. Hindi naman palagi kailangan tulungan mahihirap kasi madami sa kanila asa na lang sa tulong at di na nagsisikap umasenso. Sobrang konti lang talaga yung deserve na deserve ang tulong no!

      Delete
    2. Taxes ng mga empleyado mostly sa mga kurakot na pulitiko at sa mga project sa mahihirap lang napupunta kaya di umaasenso pilipinas. Bakit ba pinaprioritize mga mahihirap? Ang siste eh tayo palang mga working class ang sumusporta sa kanila. Tayo nagbabayad ng pabahay nila, pagkain nila, pagamot nila, lahat na tapos sila pa ang demanding. Tapos sila pa nagboboto ng pulpol na mga pulitiko. Oo hindi masamang tumulong pero minsan kasi sobra na rin sila. Unfair na. Wala ng kusa umasenso kasi alam nilang tutulungan sila.

  13. very imitation without a question and limitation! Such a shameful action!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Because Gwyneth is tall and thin she got away wearing a cape. But Angelica is the opposite, she looked swamped by her cape and her chest looked massive. Not the best dress for her.

    Shaina's dress is way better than Rooney Mara's. The tailoring is gorgeous. It's understated yet classy. Simple yet elegant, it suits Shaina's personality.

    While Zuhair Murad's model looked glamourous in her blue dress, Kristine Hermosa somehow looked old in hers maybe it's the braided hair style, this could have been better.

    1. Imo, the dress worked for angelica. The slit added the right amount of sexiness to the dress without making it look malaswa and cheap. This is definitely one of her best look sa history ng star magic ball. Mas gusto ko to kesa sa ellie saab black dress niya last year.

  15. Jusmi.. kakahiya naman tayo.. :-(

  16. in fairness kay rajo, 1st princess lang siya ngayon sa miss copycat world. ang ms. copycat world - star magic ay si ... vainia romoff! kung ako si angelica, di ko isusuot yan lalo kung alam ko na gayang gaya. nakakaloka, nakakahiya.

    1. On the contrary, i think angelica looked really classy and expensive in her dress. One of the best looks of the night in my opinion. Angelica and shaina for me. Sleek and classy.

      Delete
    2. pero yung damit, kopya kaloka! classic siya like last year naka elie saab siya, marami pwede gawin. di mo kailangan mangopy para maging classic. actually di rin naman best dressed ang orig version na sinuot ni gwyneth by tom ford sa oscars. kung best dressed, for me maja by cary santiago. kristine hermosa, pero yun nga zuhair keme daw. though karamihan ng designs dito di pa nagmo move on sa "inspired" by givenchy couture ni riccardo tisci since 2010.

  17. Baka naman tlga inspired sknila yung mga local gowns.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Yes, I think those are rip-offs. With a lot more during that night. 

    ReplyDelete
  19. Shaina's gown is cheap looking. Bad fabric choice kaya mukhang lukot ang dating hence bad fit sa kanya.

    Kristine Hermosa'a gown is a poor copycat. The top's design is so-so. The color of top & skirt do not blend well. Plus the waist is too high mukhang just below the boobies naguumpisa ang waist ni Kristine.

    Angelica's gown is classy. For me, she's the best dressed. Natabunan ng gown ang 'not-so-classy' persona niya.

  23. lady han peg ni kristine?

    ReplyDelete
  24. Well if you can't afford it...copy it! I'm sure the local designers or yung clients nila nagbabrowse sa mga fashion mags para makahanap ng magagaya.


    This should fall under the heading...Designers Look for Less.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I'm sure if you ask the designers, they were inspired by the designs of their foreign counterparts. Either that, or na-mention yun ng celeb na yun yung peg nila. Ang hindi nila pwede i-claim eh - original yung gown nila kasi obviously, hinde.

    ReplyDelete
  26. WTF. Hilig nyo mangopya.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Imitation!! They just modified a little and used different fabrics. So obvious especially kristine and angelica's!!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Sometimes, it's the client themselves who want to wear a certain style or design. Since most of the couture dresses are not immediately available or could be very expensive if ordered online, they could just have requested the designer to copy a certain design. There's no crime in that.

  29. naku! lahat imitation lang pala! sus!

  31. Garapalang imitation! Di talaga tumitigil itong mga pinoy designers manggaya kahit alam nilang nabubuking sila. Kapal ng fez.

  32. Bakit parang naging cheap nung sinuot ni Angelica? Para syang si Bianca Gonzalez, nagiging cheap ng damit.

  34. Ung kay shaina pwede pang sabihing inspiration.. Pero ung kay AP, lalo na ung kay KH, super imitation! kahit color at tela, di binago.

    ReplyDelete
  35. nakakahiya, la na maisip mga designers, recycle nalang

    ReplyDelete
  36. Shaina's i think is the only one not copied.ung kay angelica marami naman ganyan so malamang nagkataon lang.ung kay kristine ang sobra talagang gaya.on the other hand, baka ung mga artista mismo ang nagpagaya mg design priority pa rin kung ano gusto ng clients diba.ung nga lang sana mejo iniba lalo ma ung kay khsotti

    ReplyDelete
  37. They are knockoffs! Gwyneth looks good in her gown because she is tall and lean. Angelica looks like she is wearing too much fabric for her size. The slit is showing off a leg that doesn't look tone. The black shoes are jarring.

    ReplyDelete
  38. lakas naman maka-imitate! google lang pala ang katapat!!! kalokah!!!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Nakakahiya naman sila. Hay nako. Nakakatawa ang mga tao na todo praise sa mga local designers na yan. Kung alam lang ng nakakarami na ginaya nila yan, ewan ko lang. NAKAKAHIYA.

  40. most copy bec they don't have their "own" style.

    Nothing wrong with adapting the latest trend like graphic black/white, florals etc but the finished product should still look like your design.

  41. worst dress nga dito si La Greta...at least her gown is not a copycat from any of the international designers...ahahaha

  42. trying harddddddd, copycat!!!!

  43. Maganda ang cape ni Gwyneth Paltrow. Sleek, simple fine lines at malinis tignan. Kay Angelica, parang bed sheet na ipinatong sa balikat. Poor imitation.

  46. Infairview kay shaina gandaness...steady lang career di katulad ng iba dyan biglang sikat biglang lubog.

  47. Hmmm. Yung dress ni Maja, reminds me of a Michael Cinco creation. Ginawa lang sleeveless yung kanya.

    ReplyDelete
  48. inspiration: rajo laurel's gown and vania romoff. but i have to say, i reallt like the rajo gown. as for the gown of angelica, it's a poor version of tom ford's.

    imitation: kristine's gown. though the skirt is better than the original one, pero poorly made yung top. very distracting

    ReplyDelete
  49. what is new in fashion? who can say that a designer owns a particular design to the exclusion of others?

    ReplyDelete
  50. Imitation at its finest! Regardless how creative our local talents are, they are still susceptible to look around for global trends but these are just too much in your face especially the overrated Rajo, who tries hard to become a household name in the local scene but fail to impress with his his so-called vision!

    ReplyDelete
  51. NOT TRUE , inspiration siguro, pero meron naman tayong Francis Libiran at Michael Cinco :)

    ReplyDelete
  52. Imitation or not, I think they all nailed it. From the designer to the artists. Designers tend NOT to copy designs, sometimes, they have the same idea with other designers! Its saddens me though because we Filipinos are also the number detractors of our own race! If we will just learn to appreciate and be proud of the people in our country, I think we will be more known interntionally, in a positive way.
