Beauty queen-actress Jean Saburit, a resident of Pacifica, flew back to the Philippines to attend a gala fashion show on November 19, Thursday, at Rustan’s Department Sotre in Makati City. This fashion show is the grand launching of a new line of Italian bathrobe, Speziale Splendy – the lightest, most absorbent and fastest to dry bathrobes and other bath textiles. This product created by Emilio Minna, a citizen of Milan, Italy and is married to a Filipina, has mustered enough experience in the textile industry. This is why he thought of creating a robe that is lighter and more practical than the traditional one.
A former Binibining Pilipinas Young International winner, Miss Saburit will graze the television screen once again, with Christine Reyes in Eva Fonda, which will air on The Filipino Channel soon.
Miss Saburit, who has maintained her beauty figure and va-va-voom figure is all smiles when she talks about her only daughter, Nicole Jean Anderson, who is now doing very well at USF.
Miss Saburit was last seen in the Bay Area community scene when she attended the film launching for Golden Touch Production’s first venture, Diamond Heart, directed by filmmaker Perla Valencia. She was escorted by James Smith, a dashing corporate man from San Jose.
At the same event, the very active State Senator Leland Yee flew all the way from Hawaii to be the guest of honor. Sen. Yee even awarded Ms. Valencia a special certificate of recognition for her determination to empower Asian women in the field of filmmaking. Realtor-businessman Ramon Bunag of WOW Cargo and Club Royale first couple Gil Navarro and Jett Viray Navarro were also seen having a grand time at the event.
