Criselda Lontok And Keleo Holiday Collection

Congratulations to Criselda and Keleo on a beautiful Holiday collection! Same time last year, Criselda had a fashion show in celebration of her birthday.  I enjoyed attending both as it reminds me of the old Rustan’s….the Rustan’s I grew up with.  Criselda has been with Rustan’s ever since I was a child and she is one of the few loyal personalities with the company and with the family.  

 

Going to Criselda’s shows is like a reunion!  Everyone seems to know everyone and all are happy to see each other.  They are all so beautiful, so dressed and made up for the special event.  I enjoy seeing many familiar faces who I see in Rustan’s events, some of which are friends of my Lola and family.  All her friends and customers who have become her friends and have been loyal to her,  gather for one evening to support her and of course buy a lot from her beautiful collection.  It is such a nice and heartwarming event!   

I was so happy to meet Hans Chong who is now the Director for Keleo.  He is the son of Dennis Chong whom I used to work with when I was still with the Silver Vault.  It is so nice to see that Dennis has passed on his responsibilities to his son.  

Hans told me that he likes photography and in fact took the photos of the jewelry for their catalog which are here as well.  ( see below )   

Including herewith an article from the Inquirer which I thought was a very beautiful one as it talks about Criselda and how she started and her relationship with Lola Glecy.  I admire her and how she grew with Rustan’s.  And on the personal side, I admire her for standing on her own and enjoying her independence…
