In this week's issue of 'His World', Tatler Philippines EIC, Anton San Diego, catches up with world-renowned designer, Michael Cinco
In the current roster of Filipino international designers, there’s no one whose star shines brighter than Michael Cinco’s. Last year I interviewed him for a Tatler article. It was a talk filled with laughter, inspiration and naughty anecdotes that didn’t get to see in print. However, what was evident in our conversation was that Michael was living his dream. This dream started in Samar when he was but a child when, while his siblings were outside playing, he would be glued to the TV watching classic Hollywood films that set him on a course of fashion greatness. He has made his country, family and himself proud and has inspired others to keep pursuing their dreams. In Michael’s words, his “impalpable” dreams.
This is Michael Cinco, and this is His World.
