About the Designer:

Franz Flores approaches fashion as a form of poetry, creating romantic and meticulously crafted pieces that explore nostalgia, femininity, and identity. Influenced by his provincial upbringing and the women who shaped his life, his work is inspired by storytelling and culture.

Drawing from cultural inspirations and the nuances of Filipina femininity, he designs garments that feel intimate, thoughtful, and enduring. Through Diwa, Franz seeks to preserve the spirit of Filipino heritage by bringing traditional craftsmanship into a romantic contemporary context.
