CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY — Celebrating confidence, diversity, and timeless fashion, “Mags on the Catwalk” returns to the runway this August 16, 2025, at 5:00 PM at the Limketkai Atrium, bringing with it a bold and empowering statement: one fabric can create countless stunning looks—and they’re flying.
Organized by Mags Nationwide, this annual fashion spectacle is not just about glamour. It’s a celebration of real women—from all walks of life, all sizes, all ages—wearing clothes that empower, inspire, and turn heads.
This year’s edition promises even more sparkle, with Miss Universe Philippines 2025 titleholder Ma. Ahtisa Manalo gracing the runway alongside her royal court: First Runner-Up Teresita Ssen “Winwyn” Marquez and Second Runner-Up Yllana Aduana. Their presence highlights Mags’ mission of celebrating the beauty of diversity and strong Filipino femininity.
“We’ve always believed that fashion is for everyone,” said Shine Casino, PR Consultant for Mags. “This event isn’t just about style—it’s about confidence, transformation, and the power of fashion to uplift. That’s what ‘Mags on the Catwalk’ has always stood for.”
A Legacy of Fashion and Empowerment
First launched in the early 2010s, Mags on the Catwalk quickly earned a loyal following, distinguishing itself from traditional fashion shows by featuring everyday women—teachers, mothers, professionals, and entrepreneurs—alongside seasoned models. Over the years, it evolved into a nationwide movement that not only highlights Mags’ signature pieces but also empowers women to embrace their uniqueness and personal style.
The brand’s signature use of bold prints, flowing fabrics, and flattering silhouettes has become a staple in Filipino wardrobes—particularly for women seeking both style and comfort. In past editions, the catwalk has seen show-stopping moments, from dramatic slow-motion turns to emotional tributes to breast cancer survivors and inspiring entrepreneurs. It’s more than fashion—it’s a statement.
New Space, Same Mission
In time for the event, the newly refurbished and expanded Mags Closet and Boutique in Cagayan de Oro was officially reopened on Friday, August 15. The revamped space now offers a wider selection of Mags’ signature pieces, curated lifestyle items, and a more comfortable shopping experience that aligns with the brand’s philosophy: empowering every woman who walks through its doors.
“We wanted a space that reflects how far the brand has come and where it’s going next,” Casino added. “The boutique isn’t just a store—it’s a celebration of every woman’s journey.”
Ticket Information
Tickets for Mags on the Catwalk 2025 are now available for purchase at all Mags branches nationwide. Fashion enthusiasts and loyal supporters are encouraged to reserve early, as the event is expected to draw a large crowd from all over Northern Mindanao and beyond.
As the lights go up on August 16, and the first steps echo across the Limketkai runway, one thing is clear: Mags is not just selling clothes—it’s shaping a movement.
