Beginning her career as a young actress, Heart Evangelista has evolved into one of the Philippines’ most recognisable figures in art and fashion. Her transition from film and television to fine art and entrepreneurship reflects her enduring versatility. As a painter, she has held solo exhibitions at the Ayala Museum, Gallerie Joaquin and Chan Hampe Galleries in Singapore, while also collaborating with artists such as Incubus frontman Brandon Boyd and the Moonlight Art Collective.

In fashion, Evangelista has become a regular on the international fashion circuit, where her refined yet imaginative style has earned recognition from global fashion media.

In 2025, Evangelista was honoured as Global Fashion Influencer of the Year at The Emigala Awards, underscoring her reach in fashion and digital influence. The same year, she furthered her entrepreneurial pursuits through Luxelle with the launch of the Centella Sun Serum, which became a bestseller following its debut at Watsons Beautycon 2025.

In 2026, Evangelista returned to the international fashion circuit, appearing at Milan, Paris and Shanghai Fashion Weeks.
