SOLO Larry Alcala Collection & Online Model Search Ginger Arboleda September 4, 2010 Featured 74 Comments *TIME’s UP! The prize will be raffled off shortly (Friday, September 10)… stay tuned! :) Have you seen the “so Pinoy” Larry Alcala Collection of Solo? I frequent SOLO for great t-shirt and jeans. When I happened to pass by Robinson’s Galleria the other day, I came across this new set of designer clothing from the maker of the famous Slice of Life and Kalabog en Bosyo? We found it interesting as I grew up reading Larry Alcala’s comic strips. I know that a lot of Pinoys would be ecstatic to have a piece from this collection. Larry Alcala has made over 500 characters in his 50 plus years of making us laugh. He has made quite a lot of comic strips, movies, murals and 15,000 published pages. His work in Slice of Life received the Best in Humor award. Larry Alcala made himself quite a legend by evoking laughter and instilling humor in our daily lives. Amidst all the crises and hardships that the Philippines had encountered, we remember to laugh because of these comic strips and characters we can relate with. Solo, the brand who has made quite an impression by coming up with unique pieces that the young Pinoys love, brings you a fantastic line from Larry Alcala with it’s SOLO’s Pinoy Cartoonist Memorabilia by Larry Alcala line. This line consists of limited special edition graphic shirts, polo shirts, woven tops and dresses and men’s long sleeves. Here are three of my favorites from this collection! SOLO Larry Alcala Ladies' Slub Dress P1595 His & Hers Collared Shirt (Pinoy Games) for Her P795 His & Hers Anti-Smoking Movement Tee for Her P795 They also offer accessories such as tote bags, clutches, notebooks and mugs! The line is truly catchy and funky! I just wished their models were asked to pose with a livelier aura.
