BINI transported Blooms into different dimensions at the Grand BINIverse concert. The sold-out shows are a follow-up to last June’s highly successful BINIverse: The First Solo Concert. As expected, the concert was bigger, better, and bolder on all fronts—including fashion.

Aiah, Colet, Maloi, Gwen, Stacey, Mikha, Jhoanna, and Sheena wowed with their concert looks, styled by their visual director Ica Villanueva. Here, she lists six of the many Filipino designers she collaborated with for the Grand BINIverse. 

Francis LibiranBINI with Francis Libiran for Metro.Style

The designer for BINI’s iconic looks during BINI: The Launch in 2021, Francis Libiran has returned to work with BINI once again. Having previously designed 24 looks in high-shine sportswear, pastel-hued tulle gowns, and modern Filipiniana ensembles, the renowned Filipino fashion designer is one of the first big designers to ever work with BINI. Now, three years and several chart-topping hits later, Francis’ custom looks for BINI’s three-day concert were spectacular!

Renan Pacson

Renan Pacson, known for his luxe streetwear and androgynous aesthetic, amplified BINI with custom looks that seamlessly blend traditional Filipino elements with his signature style. Leveraging the girls’ personalities and the group’s overall style, Renan creates “same vibe, different pieces” with modular designs that are easy to play around with for Ica.

Raf Villas of Rafa Worldwide has also become a staple in BINI’s wardrobe of late and is also one of the designers behind the visuals promoting the concert. Set apart by his masterful play on fabrics and textures, his paper and crystal beads, sculpted metals, “jellyfish” fringes, and structured ruffles, to name a few, are just some of the unique and eye-catching pieces he has brought onto runways and into the custom outfits the Nation’s Girl Group wore at the Grand BINIverse concert. 

Marian Madayag

Marian Madayag, who designs under the name Marian Zara, is the young designer behind some of BINI’s most visually stunning looks to date. From the deconstructed and embellished denim sets of BINIverse: The First Solo Concert to color-coordinated ensembles for brand endorsements, and many more, she is all about the details— and a closer look at her work easily reveals the elaborate trimmings she adorns BINI’s outfits with. Marian is also responsible for the stunning pieces the girls wore in the posters for Grand BINIverse, which was an exciting preview of what the girls wore onstage! 

Iñigo Villegas

Also one of Ica’s go-to's for BINI’s appearances and performances, Iñigo Villegas is a dancer-turned-designer who has an innate understanding of fashion made for movement. As a performer himself, he has delivered spectacular custom pieces for BINI, including Jhoanna’s, Maloi’s, Colet’s, and Stacey’s looks for their solo stages at BINIverse: The First Solo Concert. Iñigo recently debuted his first runway collection at BYS Fashion Week.

Nina Amoncio of ANTONINA

Another rising name in the industry who dressed BINI at the Grand BINIverse, Nina Amoncio of the label Antonina is known for creating pieces based on personal experience. Primarily a menswear designer who leans onto more gender-fluid silhouettes, Nina’s defining character in fashion is her ability to craft consistently well-constructed pieces despite her constant exploration of different styles—and her collaboration with BINI will be surely one to watch.
