Heart Evangelista Dons an Opulent Michael Cinco Creation in Dubai
High-low dressing, but make it couture.
Published on Apr 23, 2025
Heart Evangelista is all about rewriting the rules of fashion. A tastemaker in every sense of the word, the actress and global style star consistently demonstrates that dressing for any occasion is never restricted to a single formula. In fact, her latest look at The EMI Gala 2025 in Dubai is proof that red carpet dressing extends far beyond the realm of waist-cinching gowns and floor-grazing skirts.

Heart Evangelista Wears Michael Cinco at The EMI Gala 2025
After being named as the recipient of the “Global Fashion Influencer of the Year” award, Heart jetted off to Dubai to grace this year's The EMI Gala.
For the opening of the two-day affair, held on April 22 (Dubai time), the actress-socialite arrived in a show-stopping ensemble by acclaimed Filipino couturier Michael Cinco: a cropped, high-neck jacket richly adorned with embroidered embellishments, arranged in an opulent, kaleidoscopic pattern that catches the light from every angle.

Heart balances the sculptural volume of the piece with a pair of metallic gold jeans—also by Michael Cinco—to infuse the look with a modern, street-meets-couture sensibility. To round out the gleaming textures, Heart punctuates the outfit with a matching, high-shine Knot clutch from Bottega Veneta.
With her hair swept into a sleek French twist and makeup kept soft and luminous, Heart frames her visage with the three-motif Magic Alhambra pendant earrings from Van Cleef & Arpels.

Pau is Preview’s go-to fashion girl. On most days, you’ll find her with headphones on, coffee in hand, and likely dressed in an oversized blazer and floor-grazing jeans.
