Star Magic Ball 2017

ABS-CBN and Star Magic did it again!

It was a night of sparkles and class, an event that only ABS-CBN can produce year after year. The 2017 ball may have some disappointments compared to how well-designed, styled and glamorous some celebrities are from previous Star Magic Ball event. This year only few celebrities were a “real” standout, what saves the night was the overflowing class, chemistry, and bliss.

The ballroom hall was showered with contagious genuine chemistry and love from few couples, love teams, and ball dates.

No matter how hard netizens protest on the best-dressed award, all is done and there are ‘maybe’ factors why those celebrities were chosen that night. I have stalked Instagram stories and tweeter updates and social media savvy folks are hysterical with protest. I must agree from, couple of night to the best-dressed couple recipients, there are more celebrities who stand out that night.

These gorgeous actresses who stand out that night didn't just flaunt a sparkly frock but they also back it up with grace, fierceness, and class.

(1) Erich Gonzales (2) Pia Wurtzbach (3) Bea Alonzo (4) Liza Soberano (5) Maricar Reyes 

(6) Jodie Sta. Maria (7) Kim Chiu (8) Kathryn Bernardo (9) Chie Filomeno (10) Leila Alcasid (11) Julia Barretto 

(12) Michelle Vito (13) Janine Gutierrez (14) Coleen Garcia

It's tricky to pick among the male celebrities who standout from an ocean of black and white Tux. Only few could pull off a sophisticated men’s formal wear. You need to have enough amount of swag to back it up or the right confidence and refinement. These debonair actors walked the red carpet with oozing charm and like a true royalty.

1) Enrique Gil (2) Piolo Pascual (3) Gerald Anderson (4) Enzo Pineda (5) Matteo Guidicelli 

(6) Markus Robert Paterson (7) Khalil Ramos (8) Jameson Blake (9) Marco Gallo (10) Arron Villaflor (11) Joshua Garcia

Overall Enrique Gil/Liza Soberano and Bea Alonzo/Gerald Anderson give us the perfect picture of how to be a couple in a swish event. Who are they wearing is just a bonus, who wouldn’t appreciate Balenciaga? Christian Dior?!? And Gerald wears a velvet tux that perfectly compliments with the effortlessness of the white Monique Lhuillier number worn by Bea Alonzo.
