Posing for photographers in the green carpet, Anne Curtis has long been friends with Liz Uy.

In an interview over a year ago by PEP, she related: "I've known her for a long time. I've known her from my first batch of friends, sina Cheska [Garcia], Danica [Sotto]..."

Anne arrived late, having first done promotions work on It's Showtime.

Liz and Raymond, who are good friends, work together for Esquire magazine as fashion editor-at-large and style director, respectively.

Liz was actually the person who told Raymond there was an opening for style director. Raymond took it from there.

Rajo created Liz's outfit for the evening: a metallic gold, front-baring top together with a flowing, black, maxi skirt. Rajo sent Liz two outfits to choose from for the night as his birthday gift.

The celebrant's sister Laureen, has carved out a name for herself in both the fashion and entertainment industry.

She is a noted fashion blogger and last year, she played Kim Chiu's half-sister, Amethyst in My Binondo Girl. In this photo, Laureen went for a nude cropped dress and velvet magenta statement heels.

Georgina Wilson said "There's such a pressure to dress up for a Liz Uy party!" She wore a small black dress that showed her long legs and thighs plus a borrowed freestanding feather neckpiece.
