A union of fashion, power & modernity

Benilde, now showcasing the college’s Center for Campus Art’s “Fashion, Power, Modernity: The Ternos of Benilde Collection,” is a celebration of ingenuity and the richness of Filipino heritage

Gerry, director of Benilde’s Center for Campus Art, added that “guest” ternos at the exhibit include “a remarkable Aureo Alonzo wedding gown worn by Mrs. Carmelita Pineda, generously loaned to us by her son, Eric Pineda, our former faculty member . We hope Eric will consider us as the eventual custodians of this remarkable artifact.

The Benilde fashion collection, including pre-war gowns, comprises more than 250 haute couture pieces, a fraction of which—31 quintessential ternos and four traje de mestizas to be exact—is displayed at the “Fashion, Power, Modernity” exhibit. In the terno are a thousand and one stitches of the country’s history. That it provides vast and unlimited inspiration for today’s generation of designers proves that fashion is an art that breathes life.
