On the cover of the “Metro Society” Arts and Culture Issue are the women behind LANAI— Natalia Zobel, Bianca Zobel and Maria Parsons. Photographed by Mark Nicdao, dressed by Rex Atienza in LV and in some up-and-coming designers, and written by Leah Puyat, this is a cover feature not to be missed. Meet the new kind of art, event styling, and the creative geniuses behind the town’s unforgettable celebrations as they take “Metro Society” through their signature styles. Afterwards, get first dibs on the signature black pepper crabs at Ministry of Crab in Shangri-La at the Fort and sip some cognac from Louis XIII by Remy Martin. Wine and dine with Joanna Preysler and Raul Francisco at Provenance as the gallery owners host a fabulous dinner for “Metro Society” and some of their favorite artists, captured by Tarzeer Pictures and Jar Concengco. In “Polished and Pampered,” tour the global headquarters of Benefit Cosmetics in San Francisco and have a beauty talk with Beautiqa’s Marv Nazareno-Miranda as she tours us through Vizcarra Pharmaceuticals’ flagship store in Shangri-La Plaza.(Story/Photos by:Justin Alexandra Convento)
