Suit it Up Manila teamed up with the dashing band of brothers and members of
the #bulliedhusbandsclub - Nico Bolzico, Arthur Burnand, Erwan Heussaff,
Adrien Semblat, and Moritz Gastl in collaboration with Savile Row’s Holland
and Sherry cloth – “The finest cloth in the world” to showcase bespoke creations
seen in the Philippines for the first time.
In a traditional sense, Filipinos often associate suits with black, navy and
sometimes grey fabric colors. Dull, stuffy and overdressed were most of the
comments one would receive when donning a suit.
Those days are now a thing of the past as Suit it Up Manila has pioneered the
reintroduction of luxury branded fabrics in the Philippines predominantly from
England and Italy.
The quality and options of fabric are overwhelming from checks to plaids to
gingnam we have them all. Bespoke Suits are regaining its popularity partly due
to initiatives like this which make these luxury cloths available to Filipinos.
In this campaign, we wanted to highlight a group of influential gentlemen
who for the most part are foreign by blood but Filipino by heart - maybe
even more then most of us. This is because each of them have their own
local initiatives which uplift the Filipino both economically and socially.
Vibrant Hues and Distinct Patterns from Holland and Sherry’s Fabrics inspired this collection. such impressive fabric signify confidence, strength and pride” which aligns with what Filipino men want to feel when wearing their Bespoke Suits.

Owning and operating a luxury car dealership requires a lot of confidence

but has now become a household name in the industry.

and direct to the point. He has great instincts when it comes to his clients and he
knows a sale when he sees one.

arrogance or pride. He has been doing this for so long that he has become fearless

Manila believes Raymond is one of the best influencers the embodies #thesuitituplife -
an ideology based on suiting up in formal and casual settings as a way of self expression
that resonates with all.
A Man in his position needs to present his best self.
Looking Good is a Strategy as much as a venue for Self-Expression. Having your very own
Bespoke Suit serves this very purpose. “When one looks good, He performs at his best.”
Suit It Up Manila partnered with Dormeuil which has produced luxury suiting fabric
since 1842 rooted in England and Paris. Our objective, to create and highlight the
construction of handcrafted suits by Filipino artisans combined with the distinct patterns,
colours and qualities from Dormeuil cloth. Three carefully created looks were made in line
with Raymond Ronquillo’s lifestyle in mind. Raymond’s Life as an Entrepreneur, Pilot and
Jetsetter requires him to Suit Up and be Comfortable as well which is why his first two
looks depict a more laid back approach to suiting. By mixing a suit jacket with chinos
or khakis, one is able to pull of a more casual vibe without being over the top. The last
look is a necessity for men of men for his stature. A three piece suit will make you stand
out in any formal occasion or setting. The double breasted waistcoat (vest) is a key element
to this package as it elevates your typical suit with an added touch of personality.
