Last November 25, 2011, I was at the Technological University of the Philippines (TUP), Manila for The HUNT FOR THE GATSBY STYLE ICON. While this is a traditional school, you can also get a degree from accredited online colleges. (just saying).

Anyway, I was there, late afternoon, to witness how the male students of TUP excitedly and “gamely” volunteered themselves for the said “hunt”. The ‘GATSBY Style Hub‘ bus was flock by the interested Gatsby Style Icon “wannabes”.
For those who are not yet aware of the “Hunt for The Gatsby Style Icon”, this contest runs from October 17 until December 7, 2011 and all males from 15 to 25 years of age are qualified to join. During these hunt dates, the Gatsby Style Hub bus, together with the Gatsby booth will be visiting various schools and universities in search for the new Gatsby Style Icon. A free trip for 2 to Tokyo Disneyland awaits the lucky winner!
According to Sir Paolo, Gatsby Representative, among the 6 variants of Gatsby, the black one, dubbed as “Mat and Hard”, is the most in demand. Other color variants available are:
Green: the Loose and Flow
Red: the Jaggedly Trendy
Orange: the “Tough and Shine
Blue: the Hard and Free
Purple: the Ultimate and Shaggy
Each color variant has its own unique characteristic/s that will definitely suit your hairstyling needs, so as with the aspiring Gatsby Style Icon from TUP, that all they need to do is just to feel free to experiment on which variant match their desired hairstyle.
As for the students of TUP, after each of the student participant have been satisfied with their hairstyle, Gatsby style, that is, he had to enter the Photo booth and have his photo taken.
The taken photos will then be posted at www.gatsbyswagg.com until December 14, 2011. Then, the Mandom Philippines Corporation will carefully scrutinize each photo to determine the Top 6 Style Icons, where the Gatsby Style Icon will be chosen based on the set criteria.
