Style Spotting: What The Cool, Creative Folks Wore to Purveyr Fair 2025

There was plenty of creativity—from the merchandise to the looks people sported

Published on Sep 9, 2025

(SPOT.ph) Instagram was abuzz over the weekend with posts of people’s hauls from Purveyr Fair, the now-13 year old bazaar that gathers some of the coolest local brands in the country. Either that or they were declaring themselves “safe from gastos,” leaving the fair sans a purchase but full for sure from ogling the wealth of creative ideas that lined the World Trade Center halls.

A big crowd turned up on both days—Saturday and Sunday— checking out each of the more than a hundred brands on site offering everything from clothing to accessories, food and drinks. There were even insightful talks on sneaker culture and creative entrepreneurship. This year’s Purveyr was truly double the size of last year’s gathering, making space for a bigger coming together of homegrown creative communities.

Finally, the fair delivered too in the style department. It seems this yearly market of everything cool is really a magnet for people who also best express themselves in clothes, and this edition is no exception. People wore vintage frocks, Harajuku-style fashion, American workwear outfits, streetwear and everything in between. The rules were: there are no rules, follow your bliss, let your fab flag fly. So check out the eye-catching fashion stylings photographer Jason Tan’s camera spotted this time around.
