A Francis Libiran and Carlos Yulo fashion collaboration? We are here for it!
On Instagram, the Filipino fashion designer snapped a selfie with the two-time Olympic gold medalist and Arsi Baltazar, CEO & president of Francis Libiran Advocate Global Holdings Corporation, and said they were “brainstorming ideas and design inspiration!”
“Always a golden moment collaborating with double gold Olympic champion Carlos Yulo!” Francis wrote.
Sharing the same photo taken at Manila Golf & Country Club, Arsi provided more details on the collaboration. “Styling the double gold Olympic champion is an honor and pleasure,” he said.
Francis was the designer behind Team Philippines’ Sinag Barong ensembles during the opening of the 2024 Paris Olympics in July.
After the games, the Sinag Barongs were put in an exhibition for the public to view and appreciate in EDSA Shangri-La and Mall of Asia.
Team Philippines had its best Olympic showing at the Paris, bringing home a total of four medals: Carlos bagged two gold medals in artistic gymnastics, while Aira Villegas and Nesthy Petecio took home a bronze medal each in women’s boxing.
