In the caption, the actress and model highlighted that her time at the Vogue event "feels like a dream."

"Truly a night to remember highlighting the global standard pinoys have to offer," she wrote in a separate post.

For the glamorous affair, Michelle wore a one-shoulder yellow gown crafted by renowned fashion designer Mark Bumgarner with some accessories from luxury brand Jewelmer.

"We (the whole Mark Bumgarner team and myself) knew it had to be something special. But when it comes to Mark Bumgarner, you all know I always trust his vision completely," Michelle shared.

According to her, the ensemble was inspired by one of Mark's earlier collections and reimagined with a "fresh twist."

"The circular patterns flow beautifully, echoing the same technique used in his exhibited piece and capturing his vision of a borderless world in fashion," she highlighted.

"I always give my designers full creative freedom, and Mark never fails to create something unforgettable. And this bright lemon color? The perfect touch of joy for the night!" she added.

The Vogue Threads event took place during the semi-annual Paris Fashion Week, which began on Sept. 23 and ended on Oct. 1. This is when famous brands like Dior, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Kenzo, Givenchy, and Céline host their shows and unveil their new eye-catching creations.
