Manila Prince Hotel is celebrating Filipino creativity and craftsmanship by featuring a breathtaking bridal gown from acclaimed fashion and wedding designer Ryan Chris at its showroom. This highlight follows the hotel’s successful first-ever Manila Bridal Fair, held on July 26 & 27, 2024, at the Grand Ballroom. The event featured a dazzling bridal fashion show, where Ryan’s elegant and modern designs stole the spotlight.
As CEO and President of Ryan Chris House of Fashion, Ryan has built a reputation for timeless elegance with a contemporary edge. His creations often draw inspiration from classic bridal looks, embracing refined silhouettes, soft ivory tones, and delicate details that remain beautiful across generations. At the same time, his designs celebrate Philippine heritage, incorporating traditional craftsmanship reimagined for the modern bride.
Ryan’s love for fashion started at a young age, inspired by a wedding-themed coloring book gifted by his grandmother. What began as childhood sketches soon evolved into a passion for design. He first entered the wedding industry as a planner, before realizing his true calling as a designer.
“My journey has always been about creativity, perseverance, and telling each bride’s unique story through her gown,” Ryan shared. “Manila Prince Hotel celebrates timeless beauty and elegance—the same values I embrace in my brand. This partnership is about more than showcasing a gown; it’s about inspiring others and sharing the story behind every creation.”
From sketching dresses in school to staging fashion shows with over 100 original pieces, Ryan has established himself as one of the Philippines’ most sought-after bridal designers. His works have graced events such as Ofrendas de Flores and Sketches + Stitches, a charity fashion show supporting indigenous students and children with cancer.
“We are proud to support local talent like Ryan Chris,” said Marvin Kim Tan, vice president for sales and marketing of Manila Prince Hotel. “His designs embody the style and quality we value, and we are delighted to feature his artistry in our showroom.”
Visitors can now view Ryan Chris’s gown on display at the Manila Prince Hotel showroom, offering a closer look at the artistry, passion, and heritage that define his work and make him a standout name in Philippine fashion.
