The look didn’t fall short of elegance with the gown’s luxe fabric and knotted details paired with a clutch from Amina Muaddi.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Maymay Entrata - For her gown, Maymay Entrata didn’t just pick a bold color, but a bold silhouette as well. The Neric Beltran two-piece Maymay chose to wear featured interesting cutouts and a red cape to top it all off.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Ivana Alawi - Ivana Alawi stunned us all as she posed wearing this Michael Levya creation. From the detailing to the draping, this ensemble is definitely one for the books!</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Janella Salvador - Janella Salvador came in wearing a gown designed by Anthony Ramirez, which looked to be sculpted perfectly to her figure. The vision and the execution of this piece gives it a wet look that is interesting and perplexing to see. </p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Kim Chiu - Kim Chiu looked absolutely expensive in this Francis Libiran corset gown. The symmetry of the beaded details did its job perfectly by letting us focus on Kim&#x27;s graceful beauty.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Shaina Magdayao - Shaina Magdayao wore a classic off-shoulder black gown from Atelier Debbie Co with a slit that runs just down the bodice. However, we just can’t stop talking about the giant jeweled flowers on the bodice that transcend this look!</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Sofia Andres - While ribbons are cute, they can be quite the statement when paired with a tube and a high cut slit. Sofia Andres was able to showcase the balance between being girly and daring in this gown created by Chris Nick.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Barbie Imperial - Barbie Imperial gave us hints of vintage glamour in her bedazzled and feathery ensemble from the designer Harvey Cenit. From the styling to the makeup, Barbie’s overall look was the epitome of flawless!</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Vivoree - Vivoree had jaws dropping everywhere when she walked in wearing this translucent Lauren Vito gown covered in black sequins and trimmed with black feathers. The minute detailings and design choice of adding a hood certainly elevated this look.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Angel Aquino - The ageless Angel Aquino came to the Ball looking absolutely daring and powerful. Her tailored gown had a creative contrast of covered and exposed, which beautifully showed off Angel’s artistic tattoos.</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Angelica Lao - Nothing quite says daring like the color red, and Angelica Lao certainly wears it well. Her Elizabeth Hallie corset and skirt whose draping seems to just flow around her leg was truly the perfect choice for her!</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Anji Salvacion - Standing confidently in this black ensemble designed by RAU, Anji Salvacion definitely took our breath away. She showed off her fierce magnetic beauty in a way that just empowers us all!</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Charlie Dizon - Charlie Dizon posed in a Steph Tan beaded and fringed creation that had gorgeous slit details on both its skirt and its bodice. We just love the overall effect this dazzling gown gave off!</p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Lou Yanong - Lou Yanong arrived looking sleek, sophisticated, and chic in this white gown from Ulysses Caragayan that beautifully showed off her back.</p></div></div></div></div><div><em><br/></em></div><div><em>Photos by Dix Perez (staircase) and Seven Barretto (photo wall) for Metro</em></div><div><br/></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/fashion/trends/abs-cbn-ball-2023-black-tie-suits/36386" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">#MetroStyleWatch: Traditional Black Tie Suits At The ABS-CBN Ball 2023</a></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/fashion/metrostylewatch/most-standout-looks-at-the-abs-cbn-ball-2023/36374" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">#MetroStyleWatch: Avant-Garde Looks At The ABS-CBN Ball 2023</a></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/fashion/metrostylewatch/abs-cbn-ball-2023-best-dressed-women/36340" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">#MetroStyleWatch: The Best Dressed Ladies At The ABS-CBN Ball 2023</a></div>
