Tatler Philippines Description:

Publisher: Style-Media-Inc.

Category: Lifestyle

Language: English

Frequency: Monthly

Established in 2001, the Tatler Philippines is the country’s most trusted and enduring high-society and luxury-lifestyle magazine. More than any other title, the Tatler name—a legend in publishing—commands respect, and is synonymous with prominence and influence.

Taking the readers into consideration, the Tatler Philippines presents the best of the Philippines and beyond, through a highly entertaining editorial mix that includes personality profiles, glamorous parties, lavish fashion shoots, and authoritative articles that span the gamut of luxury-lifestyle trends from art collecting to wine appreciation, from motoring to travel, from watches to jewellery and design. The sophistication of our topics is matched by stylish and award-winning design and photography.

In this issue

On the cover is this generation’s certified ‘It’ girl, Rocio Zobel. The youngest daughter of Ińigo and Maricris Zobel has been featured on her own since the days we first covered her when her sister Natalia was at le Bal des Débutantes, and when it was her turn to be the debutante in 2019. We envision a future full of promise for this young lady, as we revel in the incredible shoot helmed by the amazing BJ Pascual, a testament to the potential and talent of our youth.
In this issue, we feature one of the most sought-after artists, Jigger Cruz, who will hold his one-man exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum this month. We spent some time with him and his lovely partner, Aira Hernandez, during the shoot and marvelled at his out-of-this-world creativity. We take a look at the movie trilogy of the Bayaniverse, featuring Heneral Luna, Goyo: Ang Batang Heneral and the recently shown Quezon, and find out what ties the movies together.
We head to Spain to visit one of the most renowned interior decorators, Lorenzo Castillo, to enter his world and appreciate some of the works he has done over the years. I first came upon his work years ago when I stayed at the Santo Mauro hotel in Madrid (which used to be the Philippine embassy in Spain) and was awed by his work. He is planning to come to Manila, so this is an excellent way of introducing him to you, our readers. We also highlight photographer Sandra Zobel’s recent trip to the Arctic Circle, where she shares her favourite photos from her incredible expedition.

Taking A Stand

Welcome to November, and welcome to the month of the Tatler Ball. As I write this, we are preparing to celebrate our 24th anniversary and to say thank you to our friends, advertisers and supporters. This year, our beneficiary is World Vision, whose aim is to end malnutrition and provide livelihood integration in communities. Last year, we were able to raise over PhP20 million for the Connect:Ed, Tech for All Campaign of Her Legacy Project, a testament to the generosity and commitment of our community. This year, we aim to match that or even go beyond to help our countrymen, confident that we can count on your support.
