Gucci Philippines transformed a day into an experience that tasted as rich as it looked. The Gucci Gift 2025 event, paired with a preview of Cruise 2026, was a masterclass in how fashion can converse with gastronomy. Guests were first welcomed at Helm, the two-Michelin-starred playground of Chef Josh Boutwood.

The Cruise 2026 collection preview revealed a world made for the senses. Ready-to-wear and accessories shimmered with ornate embellishments; Hero pieces—the Sienna and Half Horsebit bags—emerged in leather and suede. Then, embellishment and structure intertwined, layering texture over shape in a performance








Amid the textures and layers, celebrities navigated the event as if magnetized into Gucci’s story. Anne Curtis, Janine Gutierrez, Kylie Verzosa, Pia Wurtzbach-Jauncey, Bella Recalis, Mond Gutierrez, James Reid, and Jarren Garcia embodied Gucci’s mix of heritage craft and contemporary allure. The house’s codes left a subtle imprint of glamour long after the last bag had been admired and the final bite savored.
