Steamy Forecasts 2015: KOKET’S Home Decorating Color Report

Imagine the most exquisite, feminine, and provocative interiors, and that’s where you’ll find KOKET’s luxurious pieces of furniture and soft goods.

ENTICING YELLOW

Even the happiest of colors becomes renovated when adorning a fluid gracious piece of furniture which sole desire is to be noticed. Don’t be fooled by its luminosity; it may surprise you even in the most neutral interiors.

INCANTO: Enticing simplicity is exemplified in this fluid and gracious bench.

SPARK IN THE NIGHT

Amidst a dark cold night, suddenly appears the brilliance and promises of the brightest stars that illuminate the sky. Dark intense blue blended with a bright plated gold is our suggestion for interiors with hints of mystery, desire and brilliance.

CHANDRA: Both bold and daring, the modern edge in this chair exudes the feeling of vintage glam. While polished brass bands delicately bind the chair highlighting the sculpted fluidity of the tight back satin upholstery.

ETERNAL EMERALD

Representing lust, wealth but also the purity of nature, the emerald green is one of the top steamy color trends for 2015. Fitting for sophisticated and contemporary private spaces and hotel lobbies.

BESAME: The succulent lines of the lips have sensuously captivated cultures for ages. Besame’s soft, plump curves will have you lusting for a moment of passion. Be embraced by this fully upholstered chair that sits puckered atop a textured brass ring base.

SOPHISTICATED CREAM

An all-cream monochromatic plot that complements the most exquisite of the interiors with the elegance and sophistication demanded from a color that pursues purity, peace and innocence.

VAMP: Sexy, mysterious and uninterrupted lines give this sofa highly acclaimed glamour. Upholstered in lux velvet, cast antique aged brass metal resembling a thorn bush branch serves as a base to a sumptuously lounge sofa.

CRAZY BEAUTIFUL FUCHSIA

And because craziness is part of every woman’s life, we suggest fuchsia as the best color to represent the female personality, provocation and love in decoration.

CAPRICHOSA: Flirty and unpredictable like a modern woman, the Caprichosa’s voluptuous sofa design mimics a woman’s most desirable curves. Fitted like a little black dress in lux black velvet upholstery fabric and resting on dainty brass feet.

The NUSTAR Ballroom, a magnificent venue at the NUSTAR Resort and Casino in Cebu, sets the stage for last night’s first-ever NUSTAR Ball.

Black was the color of night at the Zee table.

Glamorous guests from Manila and Cebu converged at the NUSTAR Ballroom, an exquisite venue within the NUSTAR Resort and Casino in Cebu. The evening unfolded with a seated 5-course dinner. The opulent feast started with Beetroot Salmon Gravlax, adorned with caper berries, caviar, set with delicate edible flowers; and a main course of Compressed Pork Belly with Crackling Skin and Baby Scallops. Another highlight was the auction of coveted items like Dior and YSL handbags, a limited-edition Bulgari watch, and an exclusive 2-night stay in Nustar’s opulent 3-bedroom villa—complete with a private pool and a dedicated butler. The charity evening benefited the Cameleon Association, an NGO based in Iloilo City created in 1997 that developed a global approach to act on the causes and effects of sexual violence against children.

The Qipao As Interpreted by Innovative Filipino Designers: PHILIP RODRIGUEZ

The Qipao, an iconic symbol of Chinese fashion, takes center stage as we celebrate the Lunar New Year of the Wood Dragon. This singular closely-fitted garment crafted from the most opulent silks originated in 1920’s Shanghai. ZEE fashion editor Oj Hofer, has sought the creative insights of some of the Philippines’ most innovative designers for their interpretation of the elegant Qipao, also known as Cheongsam.

Cebu’s esteemed designer, Philip Rodriguez, pays homage to imperial attire with this stunning yellow silk brocade qipao. While adhering to the traditional cheongsam silhouette, Rodriguez infuses a touch of sensuality by incorporating see-through silk tulle panels along the waistline. Known for his timeless designs and culturally respectful creations, Rodriguez’s attention to detail is unparalleled. His embellishments are intricate and exquisite, showcasing impeccable taste and luxurious design without veering into ostentation. Take, for instance, his cheongsam for the Year of the Dragon. While it may seem daring compared to traditional sensibilities, Rodriguez maintains elegance by delicately veiling the wearer’s skin with sheer tulle on the cutout side panels. The front slit of the dress is cautiously calculated to strike the perfect balance between modesty and allure “I design for women who possess sophistication beyond their years, “ Philip emphasizes. “My clothes are crafted to evoke a sense of beauty and allure, leaving her feeling exquisite and confident.” As a seasoned designer, Rodriguez consistently achieves harmony in his designs. His qipao for 2024 seamlessly blends elements of royalty and sensuality, luxury and practicality, reflecting his mastery of the craft and his ability to create pieces that are truly elegant and well-balance.
