Holiday Spirit, Filipino Artistry: Rustan’s Christmas Shop Returns

Rustan’s brings back the joy of the season with the return of its iconic Christmas Shop, transforming tradition into inspiration through a stunning showcase of décor, design, and Filipino creativity. This year’s festive showcase features immersive holiday vignettes crafted by celebrated personalities, each sharing their own take on the season using Rustan’s Christmas collections.

The result is a multisensory experience that blends artistry, innovation, and tradition—inviting families to celebrate Christmas in ways that feel personal and inspired.

Holiday stories told through design

From elegant tablescapes to imaginative tree settings, Rustan’s collaborates with some of the country’s most creative voices to bring Christmas to life:

  • Sofia Zobel Elizalde draws from childhood memories and her love for classic Christmas traditions. Her tablescape features a piña tablecloth, crystal stemware, and a centerpiece of white magnolias—an elegant nod to New York. Playful touches inspired by The Nutcracker and a butterfly-accented tea set complete the setting, echoing Sofia’s belief that Christmas is a celebration of love, family, and memories.
  • Michelle Suzuki channels the quiet elegance of Japanese design in A Red Reverie, featuring a striking crimson tree adorned with cherry blossoms, pearl garlands, and jewel-toned ornaments. Gold and lacquer accents balance the bold palette, turning the vignette into a serene yet festive homage to her heritage.
  • Happy Ongpauco-Tiu invites us to embrace holiday sparkle with a glamorous black-and-gold tablescape. Champagne tones, gleaming cutlery, and flickering candlelight set the scene for evening celebrations filled with warmth, laughter, and style.
  • Miko De Los Reyes offers a modern tribute to family heritage with a vignette that combines Rustan’s signature blue, European prints, and earthy textures. Pops of bright orange add a joyful twist, creating a balanced mix of tradition and contemporary flair.
  • Pam Gonzales-Lopez of FLORET brings nature indoors with Woodland Whimsy, a lush, layered arrangement inspired by the forest. Organic textures and botanical abundance redefine traditional holiday décor with a wild, festive elegance.
  • Myze Bangayan creates a cozy and refined afternoon tea scene, blending colors, textures, and curated details that reflect the quieter side of the season—moments spent reconnecting over conversation and comfort.
  • Jia Estrella merges art, travel, and tradition in Noel Majorelle, inspired by the vivid blues and intricate designs of Marrakech’s Jardin Majorelle. Her vignette feels like a global holiday escape, filled with culture, color, and handcrafted charm.

Each vignette celebrates storytelling, memory-making, and togetherness—reminding us that holiday decorating is more than tradition; it’s a form of self-expression.
