Actress Yassi Pressman gives terno a casual edge, wearing the butterfly sleeves not once but twice to attend events in Los Angeles this week, including a stand-up comedy show by comedian and actor Jo Koy.
The first look saw Pressman in a beige pinstripe terno top styled with a lace scarf over leather pants. The cropped terno was by Filipino designer and Ternocon 2023 contestant Dee Javier.

Meanwhile, for a Filipino party, Pressman paired a terno top printed with indigenous Filipino weaving motifs with a belted yellow balloon skirt. Another Ternocon alumnus, Dinnes Obusan, designed the top.
