Article (news)

<p>The highly anticipated release of <strong>Kai Montinola</strong>’s debut album, “<strong>Kaileidoscope</strong>,” didn’t just bless our ears, but was also a visual feast. Much like its name, Kai channeled a vivid dreamscape of colors through her concept photoshoot looks. </p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1751520157190KaiConcert50917.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">Kai Montinola for her debut album &quot;Kaileidoscope&quot;</span></span></span></div><p>Even the blinding glare of the studio lights couldn’t outshine the brilliance of Kai’s visuals. She kicked off with a halter Sally Dress from <strong>La Oriental</strong>, adorned with mirrored sequins that reflected the edgy elegance of her idol-inspired makeup and sleek long braid.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1751519606419KaiConcert50752.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">Kai Montinola for her debut EP &quot;Kaileidoscope&quot;</span></span></span></div><p>Kai stole hearts with her next look. She rocked a pair of knee-high boots similar to her first, except this time in a bold red shade to match her monochrome <strong>AREA</strong> ensemble. She wore an embellished top in the shape of a heart matched with a mini skirt of the same design but with the addition of ruffles tailored on the edges. To top it all off, Kai parted her hair into curly twin-tails to exude that playful pop star vibe. </p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1751519658086KaiConcert51167.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">Kai Montinola for her debut EP &quot;Kaileidoscope&quot;</span></span></span></div><p>It was as if she stepped out of a Y2K album when Kai stunned us in a head-to-toe pink crystal getup. She posed with fierce femme energy in a custom <strong>Fatima Beltran Couture</strong> look featuring a crystallized hard-shell corset and a fluid mesh hemline. She was on a mission to serve with her popstar poses! </p><div><br/></div><p>Kai&#x27;s path towards stardom is highlighted through her fresh sartorial looks and promising music. From her blooming Jot Losa ball gown at the 2025 ABS-CBN Ball earlier this year to her most recent runway appearance at the Inspired Beginnings fashion show whilst wearing a dress by Vee Tan Studios, Kai is making big moves in fashion, and we&#x27;re all here for it!</p><div><br/></div><div><em>Photography by @dookieducay</em></div><div><em>Creative direction by @eugene_david</em></div><div><em>Styling by @adrianneconcept</em></div><div><em>Outfit from @area</em></div><div><em>Style Associates @miss.vince_ @centderella @ms.wyn_wyn</em></div><div><em>Makeup by @onlypaulunating</em></div><div><em>Hair by @hairbybrentsales @riogalvez20</em></div><div><em>Captured at @pioneerxstudios</em></div><div><em>Photographer’s Assistants @byrndgzmn_ @loufajardo__ @sjfrncsc</em></div><div><em>Production Design @jagger_studios </em></div>
