The Designer and Her Style
Jessica Gallegos, Wear Charlie's Designer, showcased her collections during the Puzzle Mansion launch in Tagaytay City. She is wearing her sister's designed shoes from Angel Ell'Aire. |
Born and raised in the Philippines,
Jessica Gallegos, comes from a family of 12. Having started commercial modeling
at a young age, performing in theatre, singing and hosting the children’s
junior Probe team “5 and up”, she has become exposed to the field of arts.
After majoring in Early Childhood Education at University Asia and the Pacific,
she migrated to New York and pursued her career as a teacher. With much love
for the arts, she studied make up and ventured into styling.
Her love for fashion is an everyday love
affair even at a young age. It became apparent that this love translated to
another hobby, designing clothes. From there it became a brand that is now
called Wear Charlie- a one stop shop where you can pick clothes of your own
liking and taste while having the luxury of being styled by the owner herself.
Jessica’s ease in knowing what looks good
on a person is her forte. Combined with her eye for understated elegance and
her unique sense of what works on your body, she can transform any garment you
wear into a stand out outfit. See for yourself the pieces she has created and
what else is in store for Wear Charlie.
Who’s Charlie?
Wear Charlie is a
character I created to represent my personal style. It features
ready-to-wear clothes I designed and a styled collection I hand picked and put
together myself. Also, part of the brand’s services is doing custom made
designs for its clients. Some of the clients I have designed for are
notable celebrities like Danica Sotto-Pingris and Kristine Hermosa for their
special events and TV guestings.
I design clothes for
pregnant women, daywear and evening wear, and the whole collection is
categorized according to themes. These themes represent my different
style moods. (Read more about my themes in the shop section). This allows Wear
Charlie guests to choose what they feel like wearing and shop freely exploring
their own sense of style.
Wear Charlie also
does styling for its celebrity and non-celebrity clients for their events,
guestings and their special occasions. (Contact Wear Charlie for more

What makes Wear Charlie unique?
§ It is a personalized shopping experience when
you buy in Wear Charlie. Whether you shop online, at the Wear Charlie
Closet (showroom), or at the Wear Charlie bazaar booth, you’d be able to get on
hand tips from me on how to wear and mix and match your purchases with your
existing wardrobe. For online shoppers, all you need to do is send me a
message and I would gladly share with you ideas on how to style your outfits
over the phone, through email, facebook or twitter.
§ It has featured outfit options I pick out that
changes weekly/by weekly giving Wear Charlie guests the leisure of buying an
already paired outfit or an idea on how to style their similar clothes from
their wardrobe.
§ The thematic categories makes it easier for Wear
Charlie guests to know what they want to buy and how they can match them, and
it encourages them to try explore other styles of clothing.
§ It has a blog section where I regularly write
about Wear Charlie, my designs, styling and my personal anecdotes on my journey
to a fashion-filled happy life.
§ The website also has a special section that
features those who are in Wear Charlie and the messages and feedback its guests
sends Wear Charlie and myself.
§ Wear Charlie has a comfortable and unique
showroom called the “Wear Charlie’s Closet” where you can freely try on the
clothes and have a private styling session and shopping experience.
§ Besides making custom made clothes for its
clients, Wear Charlie can also alter and adjust your Wear Charlie clothes for
you.
§ Wear Charlie also gives out special promos,
discounts and freebies and you may even also give a Wear Charlie gift
certificate to a friend or loved one as a gift.
§ Wear Charlie follows trends but also promotes
clothes that are classic, basic and would fit the body well.
§ More importantly, Wear Charlie always has the
customers in mind when it creates and sells its pieces. What’s more
important is to have happy customers stepping out of the showroom or signing
out of the website feeling awesome and confident in the clothes they’re
wearing.
