GALLERY: Top spring fashion moments from female celebrities at the ABS-CBN Ball 2025
Spring's daintiest and brightest colors took center stage at the ABS-CBN Ball 2025.
Held for the first time in April at Solaire North, the green carpet became a showcase for the season's most captivating looks.
Dave Sandoval, the event's designer, aimed for a "simple, timeless, and elegant" aesthetic. He explained in a teaser that pastel flowers were chosen to embody spring's beauty and charm.
"We want to keep it (green carpet) understated and elegant so that the ABS-CBN stars will shine brighter," Dave said in the teaser.
This vision translated into the green carpet looks, with celebrities arriving in their personal take on spring style. Julia Montes arrived with Coco Martin, wearing a pastel pink gown by Vania Romoff. Her stylist, Myrrh Lao To, said it was the actress' first time wearing the color.
Meanwhile, Andrea Brillantes went away from her usual dainty ball gowns and went for a white Neric Beltran suit. She even wore a Bvlgari Serpenti necklace lent by Heart Evangelista.
Kathryn Bernardo, who recently celebrated her 26th birthday, opted for a “dainty, delicate, and dreamy” Anthony Ramirez piece.
Marking her return to the ABS-CBN Ball after a six-year absence, Nadine Lustre donned a nude tube gown by Rajo Laurel. She revealed in an interview with Gretchen Fullido that the design was a collaborative effort between Laurel, her stylist Lyn Alumno, and herself.
“For Rajo, he christened it as the nautilus. The nautilus is [a] prehistoric sea creature. For Lyn naman, it's more of mantels na hawak ng cherubs in a Renaissance paintings. Sa akin naman, I guess it’s the different sides or different facets of nature," she said, adding that the texture of the gown's fabric and its design could be interpreted as petals or the colorful rock formations in Arizona. "It’s really such a versatile dress."
And for Anne Curtis, she wanted to switch things up by tapping Taiwanese sisters Nicole and Felicia Chang of Nicole+Felicia.
“I really was drawn to them as designers because it is spring bloom nga, and they’re known for their blooming roses. So, I reached out to them. Of course, I have my friends who are stylists, but I did it by myself and reached out to them and they made me this piece," she told Gretchen before entering the ballroom.
From Julia's soft pastels to Angel Aquino's vibrant jewel-toned green dress, and from delicate florals to grounded earth tones, the stars radiated a relaxed, yet undeniably chic, energy. Check out our gallery below to see the most captivating spring-inspired looks that graced this evening.
