Online Interview





1. What's your full name? or do you just want Joey Enriquez for Figlia?
Joey Enriquez for Figlia is okay.

2. How and when did you start in the business?
My father Ceferino was a shoemaker. He and my mother Gloria started their shoe business in 1955 with the brand Meg's Shoes.

In 1986 I ventured in my own ladies shoe business with the brand name "Ceferino et Figli" which means Ceferino and children translated from Latin. I was the very first shoe concessionaire in SM Shoemart. Later on I would change the label to a shorter "Figlia".

In 1998 I went into partnership with Mr. Chan Kok Bin of Celine Marketing Corp. and to this day Mr. Chan and I have expanded our business into more stores and new brands Figliarina and Shūbizz.

3. Who was your very first celebrity client?
I really cannot remember exactly as it was a while ago, I think it was Tita Pilita Corales and Ms. Kuh Ledesma.

My father made shoes for Madame Imelda Marcos and Susan Roces among many celebrities and I remember a queue of cars parked in front of our Marikina factory of customers wanting to order shoes.

4. When and how did Kris become your client?
A good friend of mine, film director Elwood Perez, introduced me to Kris.

5. Any funny memorable anecdotes with Kris?
During a break for a taping for “Boy and Kris”, sitting down, Kris was playing with her shoe and the heel broke. It was a very tense moment and my staff; Demi went hiding inside the dressing room. Good thing we always bring reserve shoes. Kris still acknowledged her shoe during the show. It really gave us a scare, literally had us on our toes to always be certain about the integrity of our shoes.

6. What do you like most about Kris?
She is so honest and her life has been in the public eye since when she was young. People would emulate her ways and she is very credible.

7. What outfit or design or look do you like Kris to wear? or would
look best on her?

Any outfit or shoe would look good on her… from jeans to evening gowns. Her outfits are dictated by the occasion and by the theme of her shows. She would wear gowns with step-ins and a more casual look with strappy sandals all with very high heels.

8. For this design, what material will you be using? what color? Why these?
I am using a lot of metallic and shiny fabrics, patents in different hues and gradients. Colors would be gold, silver, bronze, pewter, copper, purples, reds, yellows and greens. She can wear any color palette and always be in glamorous form.

9. Wish for her?
I wish her all the happiness in the world. Good health for her and her family... more shows...
What else can you wish for someone who has everything??

Our office address is 1801 Centerpoint Bldg. Julia Vargas Ave. Ortigas Center, Pasig City. Tel 6337691 loc 124. My mobile number is 0917-8511960.

Inspiration - Shoes

Inspiration - Dresses

From day to night, Ms. Kris Aquino dresses down on her morning show with Mr. Boy Abunda in Boy & Kris and changes into a more glamorous attire for her new game show Wheel of Fortune...

Design Inspiration - Upper materials

Metallics, Foil, Shiny Fabrics, Satins, Gradient & Textured Patents.... these are some of the materials we are doing for Ms. Kris Aquino for Spring 2008...


Design Inspirations - Heels and wedges

Lucite platforms, metallic heels...




Geometric wedges, platforms, towering heels...


2008 Fashion Forecast

Fashion would turn into lavish florals to gauzy layers to incandescent colors, romantic and girlie as it brings back sexiness for 2008.

There are four major themes for spring 2008 shoes.

BARE ESSENTIALS - Exposing plenty of flesh, sheer layers and peekaboo toes. Transparent materials like lucites, acrylics and nude mesh for see through effects. Shiny metals...

HIPPIE REVIVAL - Clearly into something with its retrospective of free wheeling sixties psychedelia – it was the summer of love all over again with masses of fringe and splatterings of tie-dye, lilac, teal and fairies. The mad mash-up of hippie and rock styles is a crowd pleaser. It’s Love fest once again, adding a bit of seventies swing and prairie panache to the mix. Groove on!!!

NEON BUBBLE - This is no season of shrinking violets. Color reached its saturation point as fall’s gray ladies made way for chartreuse, tomato red, electric blue, and eye-popping neon shades of green, orange, yellow, and pink. Explosion of ultra bright hues. Color blockings.

FLORAL STEMS - Everything’s coming up roses and daisies, lilacs, hydrangeas, and poppies for spring. Feeling optimistic adorned all manner of prints with lush painterly flowers.

We are creating shoes for Ms. Kris Aquino with towering high heels in different textures and hues to match her outfits. Metallics and glittering shiny fabrics, gradient patents. Lines will be simple with focus on 6-inch heels and wedges.
