From Public Relations to Haute Couture Leadership
OUR STORY

When Dr. Sayed Ali worked as a public relations officer at a firm two decades ago, he met Michael Cinco, and the rest was history. Dr. Sayed once described his encounter with Michael as something that happened “by the hand of God.” “Certainly, fate plays a significant role in many life moments, and often you can sense that certain individuals are destined to come into our lives to accompany you on a prolonged journey,” Dr. Sayed shares with Alike.
Initially working together at a fashion label, the duo decided to open their independent label called MICHAEL CINCO. Like a perfectly oiled machine, Dr. Sayed and Michael Cinco have spent the last decade building their brand. From the runways in the Philippines to international red carpets, Michael’s creations have become one of the most iconic in the fashion industry. Dr. Sayed credits the success to their working relationship.

“Michael is a very passionate and creative person. A visionary and perfectionist to say the least. Our dynamic is a balanced one, we complement each other through a systematic business model. Michael directs the creative process and its execution, and I handle managing the growth of the business as a managing director.”
