When spring called, they answered—in crystals, corsets, capes, and curve-skimming silhouettes. At the ABS-CBN Ball 2025 with the theme of Brighter Together, it was a garden of flourishing silhouettes. These ten women took the idea of spring formal and spun it into fantasy, becoming the season’s most unforgettable bloomers.

Anne Curtis

In Nicole + Felicia, Anne Curtis wore spring’s most poetic metaphor: the rose. With two sculpted blooms framing her arms, she was a leading lady in full flourish.
Nadine Lustre

Wearing architectural beige by Rajo Laurel, Nadine arrived like an earth-toned goddess. Pleated, poised, and carved to perfection, she was a statue that decided to move.
Julia Barretto

Lavender and sly, Julia Barretto showed up in Helsa with a single black ribbon tied like a secret. A soft look with a sharp aftertaste—sweet, but never saccharine.
Iza Calzado

Wearing a black Jo Rubio gown with oversized crystallized florals gleaming at her side, Iza Calzado reminded us spring doesn’t always wear pastels. Sometimes, it dresses in drama.
Sharon Cuneta

The Megastar returned with a wink and a silhouette. In Jot Losa and stones the color of fresh basil, Sharon Cuneta gleamed, like a memory that never really left.
Ellise Joson

Summer took human form when Ellise Joson walked in. Draped in lemon yellow Julianne Syjuco with a sheer cape in tow, she looked like a holiday at golden hour.
BINI








In full bloom and dressed by Michael Cinco, the BINI women as a collective orchestrated a takeover. Each look flaunted a different mood—sleek, sultry, sculptural, sweet—proving that girl group synergy doesn’t need matching outfits, just matching ambition.
Chie Filomeno

Red never felt so alive. In a fiery Mark Bumgarner, Chie Filomeno embodied a garden in bloom—bold, blooming, and beautifully untamed.
Kim Chiu

The nude creation by Francis Libiran clung like sunlight, with a single bloom resting near the heart—a subtle nod to romance, and a not-so-subtle flex.
Janine Gutierrez

In rosy Mark Bumgarner and a BVLGARI serpent curled at her collarbone, Janine served garden glam with a bite. Venus in bloom—if Venus had a killer instinct.
Spring may be a season, but at the ball, it was a state of mind—romantic but unruly, polished yet unpredictable. These ten women bloomed through floral season, each one wearing her own version of what it means to flourish under the light.
