Designer Profile: Veejay Floresca
Veejay Floresca gained prominence when he became one of the finalists on Project Runway Philippines.
The up and coming designer, who grew up in Manila, Philippines, has been described by fashion magazines as 'The Next Face of Avant Garde'.
At only 23 years old Veejay completed his masters in fashion from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco.
After his appearance on Project Runway, Veejay hit the ground running and attended Central Saint Martins where he specialized in Vintage Bridal Wear. Today his forte is designing custom wedding dresses.
Over the years Veejay has won several accolades for his work including the award for Asian Top upcoming Fashion Designer of the year at the Fashion Asia awards in China.
He was also recognised as the most inspiring 'young entrepreneur' of the year in the Philippines.
His romantic take on fashion, while still remaining essentially classic, exudes a youthful energy. Veejay shows his range with a contemporary
perspective on glamour through his fluid lines and his svelte silhouettes.
His designs are made to fit a woman’s curvature to perfection.
Veejay Floresca will be showcasing his 2013 collection at this year’s Fall/ Winter 2013 Vancouver Fashion Week.
