GMA Network's brightest stars gathered tonight for their biggest event of 2023. On its sophomore year, the GMA Gala 2023 was nothing short of grand with its dazzling design conceptualized by event stylist Gideon Hermosa. The much-awaited affair showcased the media network's up-and-coming artists and industry veterans. Of course, everyone arrived dressed to the nines, donning their takes on the theme "elegant formal."
This year's sartorial assembly was a heady mix of classic evening ensembles and trendier garb. Here, we round up the most stylish individuals whose outfits deserve to be recognized.
Preview's Best Dressed List at the GMA Gala Night 2023
1. Bea Alonzo
The newly engaged style maven walked down the red carpet hand-in-hand with her fiancé Dominic Roque wearing a corseted dress from AZ Factory. The classic silhouette fitted her beautifully and flaunted her curves. She paired the stunning ivory look with a beaded purse that matched her jewelry from Bulgari.
2. Kyline Alcantara
The 20-year-old actress flexed her fashion prowess in a Jacquemus gown with peplum detail and long train skirt filled with delicate paillettes. With its texture and interesting drapery, it was an interesting choice that surprisingly stood out on the red carpet.
3. Marian Rivera
Ever the radiant beauty, Marian Rivera was a vision in white thanks to her strappy Danielle Frankel gown with subtle plissé detailing and tulle train. The outfit's simplicity and elegance made it difficult to miss among the crowd.
4. Gabbi Garcia
"A little siren fantasy tonight," wrote Gabbi in the caption for her gala OOTD. The Martin Bautista design featured a tiered fringe skirt and a mesh overlay on top of a nude bandeau. It was a sleek and sultry way to do island-inspired fashion!
5. Barbie Forteza
It's difficult to pull off pastels on the red carpet, but when done right, it can be a headturner. Barbie Forteza got the assignment. Her form-fitting baby blue ball gown by Ehrran Montoya was flattering, sophisticated, and grown-up yet youthful.
6. Jasmine Curtis
We're calling it: Mermaid-core might just be the next big trend next to Barbiecore, and Jasmine's outfit is proof! The actress wowed everyone in a metallic mesh creation by Michael Leyva, which looked iridescent, sexy, and powerful.
7. Vice Ganda
If there's anyone who understands how to do "showstopping," it's Vice Ganda! The comedienne and TV host went all-out in a hyperglam look featuring a crystal-encrusted gown by Neric Beltran, complete with a white feather boa and vavavoom blonde hair.
8. Michelle Dee
Our current Miss Universe representative came clad in a Mark Bumgarner design featuring a paneled bodice and high-slit skirt. The beaded detailing and champagne color were reminiscent of the Philippine sun. According to Michelle's Instagram post, the look represented "power, class, and elegance."
9. Anne Curtis
It's no secret that Anne Curtis is an avid Audrey Hepburn fan, and she definitely took advantage of the opportunity to channel her fave Hollywood icon tonight. Her minimalist Saint Laurent column dress, Tiffany & Co. jewelry, and clip-on bangs totally gave Sabrina vibes!
10. Heart Evangelista
Leave it to Heart Evangelista to take hold of fashion's most adventurous designs and make it work for the red carpet. For this year's gala, she selected a '60s-esque Schiaparelli frock filled with paillettes and a bodice featuring the brand's signature nipple detail. Bold and fiercely fabulous!
