>Regine Velasquez still reigns.

>She is an icon of this generation – beautiful,
>vibrant, with a voice that can tame even the fiercest
>of warriors. She is revered by her legions of fans –
>all in awe of her "supernatural" powers that come out
>magically in every note, in every song she sings.
>
>With her string of platinum albums, blockbuster movies
>and top-rated TV shows plus hit concerts here and
>abroad, Regine is inarguably the biggest multi-media
>personality in the business today.

>But the true artist that she is, Regine’s hunger to
>learn new things never ceases. She continues to
>reinvent herself. She has dabbled in sketching and
>painting, with some of her sketches adorning previous
>albums.
>
>Now, she is exploring another facet of her creativity
>– her flair for fashion – and is now venturing into
>the clothing business which she has christened Reigne
>– her exclusive line of chic and sophisticated clothes
>for women available exclusively at Sari-Sari Store.
>"Reigne was the title of one of my albums and it’s
>just a play on the letters of my name. And since it’s
>my first clothing line, I just wanted to use a name
>that’s personal," says Regine.
>
>Reigne is all about sexiness, with sophisticated cuts
>that offer subtle (or not so subtle) peek-a-boos of
>flesh. Its initial collection is designed with a
>particular woman in mind: someone who is not afraid to
>stand out in a crowd and celebrate her sensuality
>infused with a playful, distinctly diva attitude.
>
>"Cacai and I always wanted to design clothes and put
>up a boutique. When we were in elementary and through
>high school, we used paper dolls to design our own
>stuff since that was all we could afford," recalls
>Regine.
>
>Unfortunately, when they entered show business, their
>fashion exploits were put on hold. "Since we both got
>into singing professionally, we didn’t have the time
>to pursue other interests," Regine explains. "But
>thanks to some friends of Cacai, one thing led to
>another and the opportunity for us to finally get into
>the clothing business finally came."
>
>Sari-Sari offered Regine and her sister cum talent
>manager Cacai Velasquez-Mitra (who already has New
>Additions, a hip line of maternity wear for women who
>don’t want to look drab but fab while pregnant) the
>opportunity to establish their own clothing line at
>the right time. "I love clothes. It has always been my
>weakness but sometimes, there are some types of
>clothes that are hard to find locally. So when
>Sari-Sari suggested the idea of having my own line of
>clothes, which I can design myself, I just couldn’t
>resist. Their enthusiasm and support convinced me that
>I made the right decision."

>As she takes on a new endeavor, Regine continues to
>redefine who she is as an artist and as a person.
>What’s next is always exciting for Regine.
