The ABS-CBN Ball 2025 was a special night that brought together some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry, such as Kathryn Bernardo, Nadine Lustre, Vice Ganda, Anne Curtis and Kim Chiu, as well as celebrity couples and rising stars hoping to make a name for themselves in show biz.
The star-studded gala, held at the Solaire North on Friday, April 4, celebrated the media giant’s “brighter together” theme and was graced by celebrities all glammed up in their spring formal ensembles.
One of the celebrities, Kathryn Bernardo, looked breathtaking in her orange Anthony Ramirez wrap gown. The actress has been known for having show-stopping looks on the red carpet, but according to her, she wanted to keep things “relaxed and fuss-free” in this year’s gala.
