The energy was electric at the 2025 LA Kids Fashion Show held in Los Angeles! Once again, we witnessed how fashion, music, and heritage came together to create a spectacular celebration of youth empowerment and Filipino pride.
Find out how this year’s LA Kids Fashion Show set the stage for the next global Filipino star.
I had the honor of co-hosting the off-stage interviews with the vibrant Gabee Reyes, where we captured the excitement building up around this year’s June 7 showcase. From stylish casual wear to modern barongs, the night was a cultural statement led by the next generation of changemakers.
Here are some snaps of the event:
