You Can Rent Janine Gutierrez's Gold Fringe Gown for P10,000
The actress turned heads in a fringed Fatima Beltran creation at the Balaraw media launch. Here's where you can rent the exact piece.
There's something satisfying about spotting a celebrity outfit you love and realizing you can actually wear it yourself—even better, without buying it!
Such is the case with Janine Gutierrez's latest look, which proves that a memorable fashion moment doesn't necessarily require an equally extravagant wardrobe investment.
Janine Gutierrez at "Balaraw" Netflix Media Launch
For the recent media launch of her upcoming Netflix series, Balaraw: Blood Island, Janine stepped out in a striking white-and-gold gown that felt both romantic and daring. Styled by Lyn Alumno, the ensemble featured intricate embellishments, a figure-skimming silhouette, and dramatic fringe that moved beautifully with every step.
The actress wore the look to Netflix Philippines' immersive media launch on October 13, which brought the cast and creators together ahead of the series' October 29 premiere. Directed by Rae Red, Balaraw follows Sabina, played by Janine, as she travels to a mysterious island to find her missing mother, only to uncover unsettling secrets rooted in Filipino folklore.
The horror-mystery series also stars Charlie Dizon, Agot Isidro, Ronnie Lazaro, and Nonie Buencamino. While the show's premise promises a darker, more unsettling world, Janine's outfit for the occasion offered a decidedly glamorous contrast.
Janine wore the Bianca Gold Fringe Gown by Filipino designer Fatima Beltran, a piece that features an ivory base and fine spaghetti straps that evoke the ease of a classic slip dress, while gold-toned embroidery traces the neckline and sweeps diagonally across the bodice, accentuating the figure. The embellishments extend toward the hips, then give way to cascading metallic fringe that parts to reveal the legs beneath.
Lyn kept accessories understated with gold earrings and pointed-toe heels, letting the gown's intricate details take center stage. Makeup artist Thazzia Falek complemented the look with softly defined eyes, luminous skin, and glossy nude lips, while hairstylist Dale Mallari fashioned Janine's hair into a relaxed updo with face-framing strands.
Where to Rent Janine Gutierrez's Exact Dress
You don't need a celebrity wardrobe budget to wear Janine's frock. The Bianca Gold Fringe Gown is available through Aecia, a Manila-based fashion rental studio specializing in occasionwear and designer pieces. According to its website, the Fatima Beltran creation can be rented for P9,990 for three days, with sizes small to medium listed.
Aecia offers an alternative to purchasing expensive formalwear for occasions when a statement-making outfit might only be worn once. Its selection includes evening gowns, cocktail dresses, and Filipiniana pieces, allowing clients to experiment with different silhouettes and designers without committing to a one-time splurge.
After all, the appeal of a great outfit isn't necessarily in owning it forever, but in how memorably you wear it.
