It's Showtime host Kim Chiu has consistently been a standout celebrity for her previous red-carpet looks so Kapamilya fans eagerly anticipated how she would slay this year's ABS-CBN Ball.
True to form, she dazzled at the third edition of the charity ball held on Saturday, September 30, 2023, at the grand ballroom of Makati Shangri-La Hotel.
Kim wore a shimmering silhouette gown expertly designed by Francis Libiran. It fulfilled her request to be dressed in an alluring gown with strategically positioned cutouts.
This look was undoubtedly a departure from the norm, considering Kim's inclination towards voluminous ball gowns, as witnessed in past editions of ABS-CBN Ball and Star Magic Ball.
She completed her stunning red-carpet appearance with a glimmering choker and dangling earrings. Both jewelry pieces are from DiaGold, adding extra sparkle to her look.
Peeking beneath her dress is a pair of sleek heels—the Rene Caovilla Margot Crystal Gold Platform Sandal 120.
As stated on the brand's website, these wearable platform heels are priced at GBP1,340, which is roughly PHP80,963.62.
Kim shared her OOTD on Instagram, captioning the photos with a white heart emoji and writing, "Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more."
This classy ensemble was expertly curated by Adrianne Concepcion.
The 33-year-old celebrity exuded the allure of a siren with her long, softly crimped curls, expertly styled by MJ Rone.
Meanwhile, makeup artist Jake Galvez opted for a palette of nude hues and glossy lips to finish the beauty look.
Adding a picture-perfect touch of sparkle, her nails were elegantly done by Mimi Qiu Reyes.
Ahead of the much-awaited ball, Kim showcased her look in a photoshoot by Gee Plamenco Jr., with set design by Justine Arcega-Bumanlag and creative direction by Merlito Pabatao.
