Several reigning international pageant titleholders from the Philippines are set to showcase their beauty once again, this time as models for a highly anticipated fashion event. The “Body of Work” fashion show, organized by Bench, will take place on the evening of March 21 at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City.
ALV Pageant Circle, headed by talent manager and entrepreneur Arnold L. Vegafria, announced that a distinguished group of beauty queens under his management will take part in the event. These reigning titleholders will join a lineup of models for the renowned Philippine-based apparel and lifestyle brand.
Among the beauty queens participating are Maria Gigante, the first Filipino woman to compete in the Universal Woman pageant, who triumphed in Cambodia last year. Jeanne Isabelle Bilasano, who secured the Philippines’ first win at the Face of Beauty International pageant in Taiwan in 2024, will also take to the runway.
The show will feature newly crowned Reina Hispanoamericana, Dia Mate, who brought home a second win for the Philippines in the prestigious Latin American competition held in Bolivia last month.
Other international titleholders walking in the show include 2024 Miss Grand International first runner-up, CJ Opiaza, and 2024 Reina Hispanoamericana second runner-up, Michelle Arceo.
Representing the national pageant scene are reigning Miss World Philippines Krishnah Gravidez, her predecessor Gwen Fourniol, and 2024 Miss World Philippines Second Princess Sophia Bianca Santos.
The male model lineup will be led by 2022 Mister World Philippines Kirk Bondad, who recently made it to the semifinals of the Mister World competition held in Vietnam.
In addition to these pageant royalty, several A-list celebrities and other notable figures will also take the stage for the “Body of Work” show, making it one of the most anticipated fashion events of the year.
