Fashion enthusiasts from around the globe are buzzing with excitement as they eagerly await the dazzling array of celebrities gracing the iconic runway of Paris Fashion Week.
This illustrious event, considered the pinnacle of style and creativity, captures the attention of fashion enthusiasts everywhere.
However, amidst the glitz and glamour, there is one beloved Filipino star whose absence will be deeply felt: the stunning Heart Evangelista, a true icon of elegance and flair.
"FW is never the same without you! Your creativity, spontaneity, and take on the runway pieces are impeccable! Whether they agree or not, you are truly a fashion icon! Living rent-free in their minds! I hope to see you next season, Missy! Mahal ka namin!" wrote a netizen in the comment section of her social media account.
Another fan remarked, "Iba talaga ang Paris Fashion Week without Heart. Sayang di ka nag attend. Ikaw pa naman inaabangan namin. Specially mga suot mong kabogera mga aurahan mo. (Paris Fashion Week is really different without Heart. Sadly, you didn't attend. We're still waiting for you. Especially the ones you're wearing, your aura.)"
In September, Heart took to social media with an announcement that sparked a flurry of emotions among her fans.
Heart revealed that, although she would be participating in the prestigious skiing event, it felt like an inopportune moment for her to join.
During a recent live broadcast on her Instagram account, her eyes reflected a mix of regret and sincerity as she offered a heartfelt apology for the late notice, hoping to connect with her audience during this unexpected twist.
“I’m sorry to my fans that I’m not going to fashion week. I know that you guys say laban –– I really appreciate you, but honestly, I don’t think it’s the right time for anyone, especially from our country, to be going to fashion week because I think we need to be here,” Heart said.
The Kapuso star added that going to Fashion Week isn’t just for fun for her as she gets paid to be there as well. She gave a glimpse of how much she earns per show and takes pride in what she does.
“I go to Fashion Week not just because I wanna make rampa. For example, a brand would tap you to go to a show, I’m paid around maybe 2M per show, and that’s too much information because I don’t really feel like some people deserve that. I’m proud of it, I’m proud of my job, and that’s what I do – I promote,” she said.
The Kapuso star revealed that attending Fashion Week is far from just a leisurely outing for her; it’s a professional endeavor that generates a considerable income.
She offered a fascinating peek into her earnings per show, radiating pride in her work and the vibrant role she plays in the glamorous world of fashion.
Fans have rallied behind Heart in her passionate mission to elevate the Philippines onto the vibrant stage of global fashion.
"I’m honestly only interested in FW because of you. I love seeing how you put everything together: the clothes, the bags, the hair, the whole vibe. Your creativity flows effortlessly, revealing your genuine passion for your craft. That’s what makes you stand out from everyone else. This time, I’m not even interested in watching any Fashion Week reels because you’re not there," another Heart supporter wrote.
