KIPLING's 25th Anniversary Celebration

Many people have fallen in love with Kipling and I can simply answer now why Kipling bags are well loved all over the world, it's because their bags are very stylish and gorgeous. I became an instant fan of Kipling when I attended their 25th anniversary celebration that showcased Kipling's biggest bag collection held at the SM Mall of Asia Atrium last March 30, 2012. Kipling is touted as the best women's casual brand in the world.


At the start of the event, a dance number with Tote bags was presented by a group of young people. Oh these bags are very colorful and functional too, you can either use this as a Tote Bag or a Hip Hop Backpack.

Kipling presented its Spring/Summer 2012 collection, which included bags from the Basic, Basic Travel, Sweet Me, My Valentine, Vintage, Gorilla Girlz, City, City Business, 25 Years, Back to School, and Working Life line. Each collection is perfectly designed to adapt to the lifestyles of today’s discerning women travelers who want no less than quality, functionality and style in their travel pieces.

A highlight of the event was a fashion show that underscored the new collection's brilliantly-colored Kipling Bags.

Celebrities and bag enthusiasts were spotted at the event.

The gorgeous Andi Manzano hosted the event.

Regarded as one of Belgium’s most iconic fashion pieces, Kipling was inspired by a number of renowned factors that give it its distinct edge. "With a monkey discovered in Asia, an innovative nylon treatment from Europe, a bold attitude inspired by America and the name of an indisputable British legend, Kipling is without a doubt one of Belgium's most successful fashion exports," says Isabel Van den Broeck, marketing and communication director worldwide for Kipling.

"From new stores in Asia to the beaches of Brazil, we continue to create lifestyle essentials to brighten women's every moment, from working days to bright nights and special gatherings to chance encounters. Design at Kipling has stayed hectic and eclectic - and we wouldn't have it any other way," adds Van den Broeck.

Kipling is available online at zalora.com.ph and at SM Mall of Asia, SM North EDSA The Block, SM Megamall, SM Bacolod, SM Iloilo, SM Davao, SM Cebu, Robinsons Place Ermita, Rustan’s Alabang Town Center, Rustan’s Shangri-La, Rustan’s Gateway, Rustan’s Makati, Landmark Makati and TriNoma.
