Young Talents 2017: Raven Tacwigan
Known for: Runway and print modeling for Folded & Hung
I can imagine myself… “Working as a chef as well, or even both as a chef and model.”
As a kid, I was… “Really shy. In college, my friends and I watched a fashion show, and suddenly they wanted to be models. I just went along with them. But the modeling industry allowed me to grow personally and professionally, as I was able to learn more about myself and become confident.”
My role model is… “My older brother, Tom Reuh.”
My favorite gig so far was… “My shoot a women’s magazine as one of their bachelors. It was also my first one here in Manila.”
Before stepping in front of the camera… “I make sure to do my daily exercise in the gym.”
In five years… “I hope to be an international model. I am really passionate about modeling.”
Fashion is… “Being comfortable with what I wear.”
Modeling is… “More than having good looks. It’s also about being proud of who I am.”
