Marian Rivera brought her signature elegance to the GMA Gala 2025, held in celebration of the network’s 75th year. As one of GMA’s enduring primetime queens, the actress arrived on the blue carpet with her husband Dingdong Dantes, who also marked his birthday that evening.

Marian Rivera Wears Zuhair Murad to the GMA Gala 2025
In photographs lensed before the event by Kenneth Tangonan, Marian was seen in a romantic black lace gown from Zuhair Murad’s Spring 2025 ready-to-wear collection. Styled by Melville Sy of Studio 24c, the off-shoulder piece featured sheer long sleeves, corseted bodice detailing, and flowing silk panels that added movement and depth to its gothic-inspired lacework.

To punctuate the dark elegance of the look, the Preview 30 Icon turned to Bulgari’s vibrant high jewelry. She layered two bold necklaces: the Tubogas in 18kt yellow gold with an oval blue topaz centerpiece, and the Allegra necklace in rose gold, a joyful medley of colored gemstones. Matching Allegra pendant earrings echoed the necklace’s palette, with pink tourmalines and amethysts adding a playful touch.

She finished the look with Bulgari’s Serpenti Cuore 1968 top-handle bag, its crystal-studded heart shape and snake-like handle nodding to the maison’s heritage of glamour and craftsmanship.

Her beauty look was just as refined. Juan Sarte III—her fellow Preview 30 Icon—gave her a warm, luminous glow, while Nante Alingasa styled her hair in a softly structured updo. The overall effect was modern yet timeless, with just enough edge to stand out on a star-studded evening. 
Ahead, see the exact pieces she wore to the gala’s blue carpet.
