FILIPNXT, the pinnacle fashion event that celebrates the culture, craftsmanship, and style of the Philippines, hit New York Fashion Week in September. Held at the Annex 417 in Manhattan, the event previewed Spring/Summer 2025 in partnership with the Philippine Consulate General of NYC and Kalye NYC. 

Featured designers included Andrea Tetangco (@andreatetangco), Chynna Mamawal (@chynnamamawal), and Maison Métisse by Adrienne Charuel (@maison.metisse). Capsule collections also strutted on the runway with Bessie Besanna (@bessiebesana), Ninfranco by Wilson Limon (@ninofranco.ph), Tagpi by Gabby Garcia (@pinagtagpi), and Llamanzares Barongs (@llamanzaresbarongs). 

Appreciation for Italian style also found its way to the show. Maison Métisse, with its collection of lightweight linens and sophisticated blend of solid colors and floral patterns. Bessie Besana’s sweeping bridal-esque gowns, lace, and white-on-white embroidery evoke the pale simplicity of summer white on Italian coasts. 

Sponsors for the event were Crimson Boracay, FPJ Panday Bayanihan, New York Makeup Academy, Gretz Jewelry, PAPERLESS PR & CreaKve Agency, La Belle Fete, Dominic Senador Photography, Jervy SanKago, Michael Maniago Photography, DJ Filipino Events, Jazzcorp Manpower Group, and AMRG Events by Monique Galang.
