Modern Romantic: Liza Soberano Does Not Need Saving

Fashion can become a liberating fantasy as our June 2024 cover star wears the designs of Mike Yapching, Job Dacon, Neric Beltran, and Vania Romoff

Every outfit is a portal to a fantastical world, and Liza Soberano is plucked in this whimsical wonderland. In a fashion story that channels an air of dreamy escapism, we explore into the enchanting trend of romantic ethereal dressing in the creations of Mike Yapching, Job Dacon, Neric Beltran, and Vania Romoff with jewelry by Elementari and LVNA by Drake Dustin.

Tea Party Chic

Poised and posed elegantly, Soberano’s figure is framed by a delicate corset that evokes tale old tea parties and enchanted gardens, but with a strikingly contemporary feel. It’s an ornate piece of art, with visible boning tracing graceful lines that accentuate her bodice. Bejeweled boyleg shorts sharpen the eye.

Other than the corset, the drop waist silhouette takes center stage. It’s as if the cover star has fallen through a rabbit hole into a realm where time bends and style norms are delightfully upended. The drop waist creates a languid elegance, elongating her form and inviting the eye to wander down to the lush layers of the petticoat skirt that sways with every step.

The petticoat skirt is a marvel of volume and lightness, cascading in frothy tiers that catch the light like a fleeting dream. Each layer evokes images of twirling under moonlit skies. The skirt’s airy fullness contrasts beautifully with the corset’s defined structure, crafting a look that is both ethereal and grounded, much like Soberano herself.

Details of Enchantment

But the true magic lies in the details. Light lace trims, elaborate embroidery, and gleaming beadwork read stories of far-off lands and fantastical adventures. The material—light as milk—swirls with a life of its own, creating a dance of shadows and light. Fabric and thread, folded and molded, unearth the craftsmanship that turns fashion into a mad hatter’s dream.

Soberano’s look is completed with accessories that have been taken from a treasure chest of curiosities from Elementari and LVNA by Drake Dustin. Contrasted earrings elicit frivolity, shoes that hint at royalty from another universe, and accents throughout that sparkle-like stardust.

Our June 2024 cover star leads us through this rabbit hole, looking the part of romantic ethereal dressing. Over and under the mundane, she embraces the magic in the everyday. Take a cue from Liza Soberano and let your wardrobe be your wonderland. Who says you need a looking glass to find adventure when you have a corset and a petticoat skirt to become adventure itself?
