For those of you who’ve been following us on the regular, you know we’ve supported the guys behind PLAY TUESDAYS since Day 1. We were there when they started out in the small, cozy Attic(a), badgered them to bring it back when they went on hiatus, and followed them all the way to Mondial. Now, they’re up at it again right where they started — the brand spanking new-ly renovated, ATTICA! See you all TONIGHT for more of your favorite funk and old school rhythm and rhyme. Get your strong arms ready and steady, PLAY TUESDAYS is up at it AGAIN.
Communicate. Congregate. Collaborate.

TITLE: A DISSERTATION ON STYLE
ABSTRACT:
A discourse on the view of the Philippine independent clothing scene at it’s current state and how it becomes an invitation to ponder on the meaning of style as art exhibited in clothing. – Kix Suarez of The Artisan
METHODOLOGY:
Both an exhibit and a pop-up shop, a handful of Manila’s independent brands got together and set up their own showcases based on their takes on alternative apparel and style. From vintage style to bombshell beauty; from quirky eco-friendly to supah fly and downright classic, The Gallery, Zoo, Thank You Today (formerly I LOVE YOU), Stylebreak, The Gallery, Wip Caps, UNSCHLD, Blackbook and The Artisan provided an introduction to Manila’s capabilities, abilities and possibilities.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE:

RECOMMENDATIONS:
Starting with the obvious, you should’ve been there. But then again, we can always head back to the drawing board and start all over again. More brands, more music, more bean bags, perhaps? Oh and how could we forget, come thru to the shop to get the pieces from the A Dissertation on Style x UNSCHLD Capsule Collection (made exclusively for this project)!
See you at the next one,
Commune MNL/UNSCHLD
Thanks to all those who checked out the UNSCHLD pop-up store/exhibit at A Dissertation on Style last Saturday. Mad props to Kix Suarez, Pia Rivera and Ej Reyes for making it happen. Good lookin’ out!
A Dissertation on Style x UNSCHLD capsule collection now at Commune MNL…..
COACHES JACKET (navy/beige)
2 words. Micro Twill. And yeah, it’s the rainy season, isn’t it? So from now until this season ends, it’s The Everyday Coaches Jacket.
CORDUROY SHIRT L/S (sandy brown/camel)
Corduroy. A good alternative to l/s oxfords and flannels. Another piece for the windy/cold days/months ahead.
STRIPED OXFORD SHIRT S/S (white/blue)
Can be worn at work, a night out with friends, chillin’ with the crew in someone’s pad, diga bro-ing. It’s pretty much like an all-purpose shirt. See it for yourself and wear it.

As y’all now, we are also working on our own homegrown brand UNSCHLD. Through our bold graphics and selection of cut and sew pieces, UNSCHLD would like to issue a statement about constantly challenging the status quo and nurture the humble beginnings of a grassroots movement.
Recently, we wrapped up on our capsule collection for the event, A Dissertation on Style, to be held this Saturday. Shown below are 2 of the 3 pieces from the UNSCHLD Capsule Collection to be presented and sold at the event.
Check out 3/3 of the UNSCHLD Capsule Collection on Saturday.

All of these, including our past collections, will be presented and sold at A Dissertation on Style….
A Dissertation on Style will be an exhibit and pop up shop that will consist of nine independent brands that have been influencing Manila to local alternative choices in wardrobe and style.
Featuring The Gallery, Zoo, Thank You Today (formerly I LOVE YOU), Stylebreak, Wip Caps, Unschld, Blackbook and The Artisan.

This will all be held at NOKN?WHOW, 3rd Floor of 9590 Feron Bldg. Kamagong St. Cor. Bagtikan St
Makati tomorrow from 6pm-2am.
See you guys there,
So here’s how Nick Automatic and Commune MNL did it. 3 people at a time were allowed to check out the pop-up store. Yes, 3 people at a time, for 5 minutes…..So. 3 lines. 3 people at a time. 5 minutes….
This picture was taken before the whole thing started….
This picture was taken around halfway through….around 2 hours after….
Check out the rest of the pictures at our gallery page here. We will let the event speak for itself….although we are tempted right now to provide you with some witty hyperboles, metaphors and similes regarding the amount of people who showed up that day…since 10am. For now, we will let the pictures do the talking.
Thank you very much to all those who came through! Your patience is greatly appreciated. Salamat!
Mad props to Nicolo, Niche, Ej and the rest of the crew!!
One thing…did we mention this was gonna be huge?
Best believe,
Commune MNL
