In the realm of men’s fashion, one’s style transcends mere clothing choices; it encompasses the art of presenting oneself with grace and character.
Throughout Philippine history, men have been revered as leaders known for their integrity and grace rather than flashy clothes. This quality of being “maginoo” is deeply rooted in the Philippine culture.
The first diplomat to epitomize this ethos and receive due recognition for his fashion sense is His Excellency Abdul Malik Melvin Castelino, Ambassador of Malaysia to the Philippines. He not only accepted the nomination but also proudly received the “‘Manila Best Dressed award” in the male diplomat category.
Ambassador Castelino’s commitment to serve the country extends beyond his sartorial elegance. During a visit to NEDA 7, he engaged in collaborative discussions aimed at enhancing trade, investments, and tourism cooperation between Malaysia and the Philippines, particularly in Central Visayas.
Recognized as a respected figure in the Philippine fashion industry, Deniece Cornejo, herself a recipient of the prestigious Manila Best Dressed Award, possesses a keen eye for male fashion. In 2015, she showcased her talent by designing exquisite shoes for men and styling cultural pieces for political leaders.
According to Cornejo, Ambassador Castelino is a shining example of a man who exudes delicacy, good manners, and natural grace at various events he attends. Manila Best Dressed and founder Chairman Karr Macato Marin and the board agree that men like Malaysian Ambassador Melvin embody charm, grace, and character, representing pride for the ASEAN country.
