Michael's creations consistently steal the spotlight at major red carpet events, and the ABS-CBN Ball 2025 was no exception to the anticipation surrounding his work.
This year, he unveiled an impressive lineup of ten breathtaking ensembles, each donned by beloved Kapamilya stars.
The event took place on April 4, 2025, at the grand ballroom of Solaire North in Quezon City. Here’s a closer look at the splendid designs at the ABS-CBN Ball 2025:
BINI
All eight members of BINI—Jhoanna, Colet, Gwen, Maloi, Aiah, Sheena, Mikha, and Stacey—dazzled at the ABS-CBN Ball 2025 in blush-and-dusty-rose-colored couture gowns by Michael Cinco.
Colet stunned in a strapless, off-the-shoulder bodice adorned with intricate lace embroidery and delicate floral appliqués, complemented by a thigh-high slit.
The gown is part of Michael's Spring/Summer 2025 couture collection titled, The Impalpable Dream of Rome.
Jhoanna wore a piece from Michael's Fall/Winter 2024-2025 collection called The Impalpable Dream of Japan.
Her gown boasts a strapless neckline and a voluminous skirt adorned with intricate embroidery and shimmering beadwork inspired by Japan's cherry blossoms.
Gwen graced the occasion in a sparkling cropped top with a sweetheart neckline and delicate straps, adorned with shimmering embellishments that beautifully caught the light.
She had it paired with a voluminous, textured, high-waisted skirt featuring layers of soft, petal-like appliqués.
Maloi wore a strapless gown with a plunging V-shaped sheer panel, beautifully embellished with pink and silver sequins and beads in an intricate floral or abstract pattern that subtly faded towards the waistline.
Aiah's halter gown is densely adorned with shimmering sequins and beads, which gracefully disperse as they flow into a fuller skirt.
Sheena wore a shimmering, form-fitting white or off-white gown with a halter neckline, sparkling sequins, modern waist cut-outs, and a glamorous skirt that flares with soft, feathery layers.
Stacey looked gorgeous in her strapless, floor-length gown in a soft blush. Her gown features a fitted bodice with shimmering embellishments and a voluminous skirt adorned with textured, petal-like layers, complemented by a high side slit.

Originally with sheer panels, the bodice now features additional embroidery for added coverage, complemented by a fitted skirt adorned with intricate beadwork and embroidery.
