    For more than two decades, John Lozano’s career has moved between styling, theater, marketing, events, branding, and fashion. None of it, he says, was ever exactly part of the plan.

Now, as MNL Fashion Week returns for its second run, he finds himself with an unrelenting vision to give Filipino designers a platform to tell their stories, bring fashion closer to a wider audience, and make the industry dream again.
