Last April 12, 2012, Dell Philippines unveiled its ultra-portable XPS 13 laptop at the Mind Museum, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig. The highly anticipated Dell XPS 13 is the most compact 13.3-inch Ultrabook featuring an edge-to-edge glass, near "frameless" display, all-day battery life, and the latest innovative technology for a superb overall user experience.
I was really excited about the event since this was my first time to witness the collision of Art, Fashion and Technology. Launching the newest Dell computer in collaboration with the chic and voguish get-ups made by the well-known designer Paolo Cabahug was such a perfect event to rejoice artistry in fashion and technology.
Technology
The XPS 13 is a 13-inch ultrathin laptop that measures 0.24 – 0.71 inch/8-18mm and weighs 2.99 lbs only. Dell’s award winning XPS 13 laptop which is known because of its superb craftsmanship, thoughtful design and durability is finally here in the Philippines.
Underscoring its business-ready features, Alvin Patrick Go, product manager of dell Philippines said, "The uncompromising XPS 13 offers professionals the power to connect, collaborates and innovate with unique features and services - like Dell ProSupport and Trusted Platform Module - that satisfy the needs of enterprise IT departments."
But more on its usability, what I like most about the Dell XPS is its sturdy look. The design was artistically envisioned, simple but very elegant. Its monochromatic color with shiny chic coat reflected its superb craftsmanship.

Art and Fashion
The program was not all about being techy or what. They made it more interesting by fusing technology with art and fashion. The program was started with a very amusing ballet performance followed by a ramp show featuring the Paolo Cabahug's designs and creations. He flaunted beautiful wardrobes that exemplify the almost monochromatic hues of the XPS 13 Ultrabook. The creations came in the same shades as the ultra-savy gadget: the high-gloss elegance of silver; the sleekness of ebony; and the immaculate seduction of white. Cabahug wove unto his designs not just Dell’s delicious colors but also his own brand of fashion genius that even the most jaded spectators were amazed.
