To strengthen communities, empower individuals, and create safe spaces where everyone can feel confident and connected, Cosmopolitan Philippines and PENSHOPPE continuously foster a collaborative relationship aligned with a core vision of nurturing community and celebrating what makes everyone bold, fearless, and unapologetically genuine.
“At Cosmo, we live by a golden rule: Live your best life now by being fun, fearless, and forward. Club PENSHOPPE shares that same fearless spirit of self-expression and embracing the moments that make life feel special, and again, that’s exactly what Cosmo is about, so here’s to a partnership that celebrates both passion and fun and where there’s always something to look forward to,” said Cosmopolitan Philippines Chief Editor Ida Aldana.
Cosmopolitan Philippines is a digital brand that inspires, encourages, and empowers Filipinas to pursue their dreams, live their best lives, and control their bodies through informative, entertaining, and relatable content. Meanwhile, PENSHOPPE is a well-loved fashion brand that offers timeless essentials, graphic tees, and seasonal, trendy pieces.
Both brands celebrated this partnership and their alignment in vision during the Cosmopolitan Sunset Party with Club PENSHOPPE, held last April 28 at the Straight Up Rooftop Bar, SEDA Vertis North.
“PENSHOPPE stood strong as a country’s leading casual wear brand. Our promise is simple: to be your partner in style. It means being accessible, offering good quality, on-trend pieces that let anyone express themselves without breaking the bank. We’ve always believed that great style shouldn’t be exclusive; it should be empowering for everyone,” said Brandon Liu, the Brand Director for PENSHOPPE.
For years, PENSHOPPE has established itself in the fashion industry with the help of like-minded individuals who share the brand’s vision and serve as its endorsers through Club PENSHOPPE, which includes notable Filipino celebrities like Julia Barretto, Cassy Legaspi, and Darren Espanto, among other names.
This time, PENSHOPPE is changing the rules with the launch of the PENSHOPPE Loyalty App. This app allows shoppers and loyal customers to join Club PENSHOPPE and access perks, exclusive brand events, and discount vouchers. Simply download the app and register to enjoy these benefits.
Summer style tips from Club PENSHOPPE members
Club PENSHOPPE members have unique and authentic styles that make them comfortable and empowered to make waves in their respective industries.
Actress Julia Barretto prefers dressing for comfort. During summer, she opts for casual pieces like a matching set with either skirts or shorts, or pairing denim jeans with plain tops, which she considers her go-to, and similar pieces to stay fresh but in style.
“I’m always just back to the basics. Anything comfortable for me, I think, is a must-have. I love my basics because I think you can style it in different ways for never-ending opportunities,” Julia said.
Kapamilya singer-actor Darren Espanto can attest to dressing for comfort, especially in the Philippines. With the tropical heat, he prefers wearing shorts to stay cool without compromising his overall aesthetic and being mindful of the fabric or clothing material because he loves layering clothes.
“If you would like to wear stuff that’s layered, find something that’s breathable–yung hindi dumidikit sa balat mo pag pawis ka na and madali siya mag-dry pag pawis ka na. Hats also help a lot to keep yourself from the heat and rays of the sun,” Darren said.
Meanwhile, Kapuso actress Cassy Legaspi avoids wearing uncomfortable pieces, even if they look good on her. However, her specific fashion must-have is barrel jeans. Besides comfort, she values clothing structure and shape in her style.
“With PENSHOPPE, yung shirts nila ang ganda ng cut, ang ganda ng fit, so it looks more put together even though yung piece itself is very casual,” Cassy said.
