Q+A: Kookie Buhain (PH)
Kookie Buhain a.k.a deathbyplatforms is one of my favorite Chictopians because she demonstrates style know-hows and that anyone can look like a model-off-duty, even on a budget. She makes the fashion world swoon over her clean-cut lines, monochrome chic and artistic flair. Her tendency to tie up tailored menswear items with femine body-con dresses and accessories show an innate and impressive understanding of fashion. Surely, this Chictopia style icon has successfully found a platform for expressing her personal style. Take a look at what this stylista had to say.
