Take a look at the stunning women who made Tatler Ball 2024 one for the books

That time of the year has come again—the annual Tatler Ball—a dazzling evening where Philippine society’s finest gather for a noble cause. While charity remains the heart of the night, it’s impossible to ignore the stunning array of gowns and glittering ensembles that make this event a fashion spectacle.

This year, Heart Evangelista turned heads in a custom pale blue creation by Michael Leyva. On the other hand, co-benefactor Karen Davila shone brightly in a stunning dress from Rajo Laurel’s ‘Chrysalis’ series. Other guests brought their own unique flair to the evening, from Kifu Augousti’s fabulous feathered ensemble to Cristalle Belo’s sparkling Michael Cinco ball gown. 

With every guest dressed to impress, the night was a celebration of charitable endeavour, great conversation, and bonafide style. Let’s take a look at the best dressed women who truly owned the night and helped make the 23rd Tatler Ball one to remember.
