Standing 6’5″, Vice Mayor Francis Zamora (our co-blogger Keri’s husband) is one man you will see from even a mile away! Literally, a big and tall man.

I’ve always been surrounded with tall men. I have two brothers who are 6 footers as well. So, I know how hard it is to find clothes for them. Francis or whom we fondly call “Zam” has an even harder time, for sure! And this market is not very well-valued here in our country, since, admittedly, Filipinos are not know for being well-endowed when it comes to height. They have to settle for ill-fitting clothes, and “bitin” pants *gasps!*

Good thing, there is ULTIMO, and they recently held an intimate fashion show and launch at the Bar One  in Holiday Inn last October 23. Being the Captain of their De La Salle University (DLSU) basketball team in college, Zam was able to ask most of the top players from different batches to join the fashion show:

Here are some more shots from the show. You might have missed these basketball players, so these photos might bring you back to memory lane 😉
