POP NOW! IT’S GOING TO BE WOW! THOMAS SABO OPENS IN MANILA

Seasonal on the other hand come in wonderfully-bright colours and with fabulously oversized shapes. In the POP NOW collection, animals, flowers and symbols are treated to a makeover with lots of colour, giving them a remarkably contemporary feel. The line is particularly suited to women who are fashionably daring and have a tongue-in-cheek attitude towards playing with colourful and exceptional accents.

Lastly Classic sees particularly popular designs being updated. Graphic shapes are given an especially fashionable makeover with softer edges and large, cut zirconia: sometimes black and sometimes – completely new – champagne coloured. The look is particularly striking when several items are worn together such as a bracelet combined with a large cocktail ring and swan-neck earrings. Sporty double-row leather bracelets with silver buckles lend relaxed chic to any elegant outfit..

The international lifestyle brand THOMAS SABO based in Germany charms its way to Manila as they open their first boutique at the Powerplant Mall in Rockwell. Carrying their product hallmarks: love of detail, functionality, wearability and a particular feel for the materials used, Thomas Sabo sets trends that are always in tune with contemporary fashions.

In its recent opening, THOMAS SABO brings with it their latest Sterling Silver Collection Spring/Summer 2011 that is breaking into the bright and colourful world of the popular: Pop Art, Pop culture and Pop music. This is where art meets commerce, kitsch meets couture, Rock ’n’ Roll meets comics and neon meets the classic. The motifs are wonderfully striking and provocatively tongue-in-cheek, sometimes loud and brash, sometimes with a delicate irony – but always with a glowing intensity.

The focus is on the playful interaction of shapes, mesmerising colours and elegant cuts. All items of jewellery are particularly characterful and attention-grabbing. Furthermore, they radiate joie de vivre,e nergy and delight. Which is why the collection is called POP NOW!

Thomas Sabo’s POP NOW comes in 3 collections: Rebel at Heart, Classic and Seasonal. Rebel At Heart picks up on the 1980s fashion trend dominated by, at the time, new, particularly shiny, so-called neon colours, punky-ripped disco gear and whacky colour combinations. It is all about cool neon colours. Sparkles, glamour and maladjusted, rebellious shapes such as the skull with enamelled horns, the punky robot or the neoncoloured enamelled lightning bolt pendant. And even well-known shapes, such as the winged heart, now radiate in new neon colours.

The Manila opening was led by Thomas Sabo Philippines Managing Partners Eric and Cheryl Lee joined by Thomas Sabo Director for Asia Franz Lanthaler and Visual Merchandising for Asia Eske Foerschner. Setting the trend for Thomas Sabo’s latest collection POP NOW are 3 of the most bankable personalities in show business – Carla Abellana, Heart Evangelista and Daniel Matsunaga. All of them donned Thomas Sabo’s Seasonal collection, Classic collection and Rebel At Heart.

THOMAS SABO products also meet the highest standards: only high-quality materials such as 925 Sterling silver and zirconia stones are used, as well as stainless steel and ceramic for the watches. Currently, THOMAS SABO has more than 200 THOMAS SABO shops and over 2800 wholesale partners worldwide. In the Philippines, THOMAS SABO is located at the 2nd floor, Powerplant Mall, Rockwell.For more information please visit our homepage www.thomassabo.com
