Memo to self:

‘Spread the love’

11/21/2007

Even scrooges may want to shop this holiday season, especially after seeing Memo’s bright and cheerful Spread The Love holiday collection. At Christmas time, love overflows and all we can do is share it.

Red, yellow and brightness dominate and evoke feelings of warmth and cheer.

Red is in Memo’s flat knits collection for women. A knitted cape so fashionably chic, like Little Red Riding Hood’s, but so stylish and practical, comes in red and heather gray. Flat knit tunics, with self-fabric belt or ribbed, fit this season’s cooler nights, in black, reds and rich grays. With relaxed fit and loose or convertible sleeves, women feel freer to enjoy the richness of the season.

Chic is Memo’s collection of the little black dress. One of the favorites is an empire cut dress that comes in black and beige, with swathes running down the dress, giving it a look of fluidity. Memo’s black waisted dresses are also versatile for parties or for the office.

Contemporary classic is Memo’s men’s collection of knit vests and bomber jackets with a twist, styled with refined wool fabrics with plush knit collar and cuffs. These collections comes in luxurious grays and blacks, and match MEMO’s flat out flattering flat front pants.

Memo jeans are easy on the waist, fit nicely on the hips and frame the legs. Trendy but subtle, stylish and current, the Memo modern fit chinos and jeans further expand brand’s widely popular pants collection for men.

Men get dressy as the shirt dress is accentuated by intricate stitch details, fancy prints and satin contrasts. This season’s collection also features the houndstooth shirt. Updating a basic, Memo introduces the short-sleeved contemporary shirt with a notched button-down collar.

Classic styles of shirts and wallets for both men and women come conveniently wrapped in special edition Spread The Love gift box.

MEMO is currently in 21 locations in major malls in Metro Manila and key provincial cities. Opening soon in SM Davao, SM Iloilo and Robinson’s Galleria.
