Selina Eugenio writes about her personal attachment to Luthgarda's lost momentos. She's gathered what's left of Luthgarda's images from her early career. Read about it on her blog -
It is fun to glimpse into the early career of Luthgarda. It is amazing to see how she's evolved as a designer. You may visit the archives page of the website to see all of the pictures from the 70s and 80s. The 90s will be an interesting page as well - coming soon.

Above photo: 1981, Luthgarda is pregnant with her third child, Selina. She presents a design showcase in an International Asian Design competition. She is one of the first female designers to place in the said competition. Her passion for ethnic-inspired designs is apparent and has stuck to the designer's work.
