Most Influential in Fashion: Pia Wurtzbach
Fashion experts will know that Pia Wurtzbach has had a flourishing relationship with fashion in recent years, constantly reinventing the sartorial wheel and solidifying her status as a veritable style maven. Her transition from beauty queen to style-setter comes from her unmatched commitment to injecting a fresh breath of vitality to the fashion landscape. Having cultivated her distinctive approach to dressing, Wurtzbach is a fashion great in the making with a lane of her own; proving that she’s not just known, she’s truly influential.
Most Influential in Beauty: Lierge Perey
Beauty school is in session in Lierge Perey’s page. This content creator is a transfixing figure in the beauty industry with her brand reviews, product first-impressions, and how-to’s. Lierge Perey is one of the few success stories from a creator economy that has recently reached a saturation point; she thrives by having an authentic and authoritative voice in the realm of beauty. Because Perey has become an influential voice in her field, her presence in social media plays a key role in shaping beauty trends and preferences in the Filipino beauty community.
Most Influential Celebrity: SB19
There is no mistaking that SB19 has become the epitome of a Philippine pop music phenomenon. With their accolades and impact, they have completely set new benchmarks for groups, P-pop, Asian artists, or pop music acts in general with sheer talent, dedication, passion for music and their art, and humility. If a listener is curious about what P-Pop is all about, SB19’s sound has become the standard.
They’ve ventured into solo projects in recent years as well, individually creating their own lanes in the music realm. Few phenomena have captured the world’s attention quite like this P-Pop sensation; SB19 has left an indelible mark on both the global pop culture and music itself. Their journey from local Philippine idols to global performers is a testament to the transformative power of music and authenticity.
Most Influential Global Fashion Brand: Calvin Klein
Over its 56 years in business, the Calvin Klein brand has grown into an international powerhouse dedicated to providing sensational and trend-setting collections that went from snappy cuteness to seductive chic. Though Calvin Klein was mostly defined by its jeans and underwear, it’s one of the few brands that understands that fashion—and fragrance—are spaces for creative exploration rather than merely a price point.
Most Influential Local Fashion Brand: PATTON
PATTON has been steadfast in promoting local talent and establishing Filipino retail as a major player in the global world of fashion since 2020. The brand is the winning wardrobe hack for dressing with flair without the fuss; the standard for seamless, practical, and contemporary essentials. A much-needed antidote to fast fashion, PATTON caters to the conscientious consumer who values comfort, quality, and style. The brand’s global presence was further solidified by the announcement of global supermodel Emily Ratajkowski last June.
Most Influential Global Beauty Brand: BYS
International cosmetic giant BYS is a global leader in beauty, constantly on a mission to offer consumers worldwide the best of cosmetics innovation in terms of quality, functionality, and efficacy. With their playful and colorful products, BYS succeeds in a fast-changing beauty industry with their impressive approach to following and setting trends, and providing beauty enthusiasts all over the world products that look and feel just as good on your vanity as they do on your face.

Most Influential Local Beauty Brand: Vice Cosmetics
Vice Cosmetics, founded by Filipino comedian and television personality Vice Ganda, has revolutionized the beauty industry with its all-inclusive, high-quality products.

MEGA honors Vice Cosmetics for making beauty a fun and inclusive experience for all Filipinos.
