She may have already established herself in the international world of fashion, but Josie Natori is not one to forget her roots. The designer (and one of Female Network's 100 Amazing Filipinas!) recently unveiled the Spring/Summer 2012 collection for Josie by Natori with an intimate house party. The line, which caters to a younger demographic, is all about easy, carefree pieces in light fabrics and punchy patterns—perfect for the Filipino summer.

At the event, models bedecked in pieces from the collection walked around the space, allowing guests like Preview editor-in-chief Pauline Juan and bag designer Amina Aranaz-Alunan to inspect the garments up close. Muses Rosanna Ocampo-Rodriguez, Katrina Tantoco-Lobregat, Stephanie Zubiri, and Bea Tantoco also graced the event in summer-ready ensembles that perfectly captured the Josie by Natori spirit.
