Put together 50 models as well as creative and production staff and take them to Langub Resort, a fast-emerging tourist destination in Sipalay City for that Scintillating Southern Shoot. That's what the Bacolod Association of Models did July 26-28 in its most elaborate production so far following its mountain setting at Mambukal last year and its sizzling summer pictorial in Jomabo Resort in Escalante.

The shoot featured a collection of 10 themes, reflecting the creations of local designers and collections fro, Pale Bleue, Fetish and Urban Chic. The designers were Jan Jan Ditching and Kelly Cuachon (for bridal gowns), Silah Chua for groom suits, stylish wear by Arielle Apuyon and haute couture collections of Nicolo Yulo.
