The capital’s glitterati converged at Uma Nota, Shangri-La The Fort, for a night where high fashion met culinary artistry, and all roads led to ZALORA’s biggest 11.11 Mega Sale. The Best in Noir banquet was a stylish prelude, celebrating ZALORA’s unparalleled blend of glamour, lifestyle, and unbeatable retail deals.
From the moment BMWs whisked VIPs to the venue, guests were immersed in an ambiance that was both refined and exciting. The menu, curated in partnership with The Store Specialists, Inc., transformed the dining experience into a tribute to luxury brands: Calvin Klein Watches lent their sophistication to the appetizers, Lacoste and Swarovski starred in the main course, while K-Star Jeon Somi’s GLYF Cosmetics added a sweet touch to dessert.
But it wasn’t just the cuisine that dazzled. ZALORA’s Z Crew—celebrities and influencers alike—turned Uma Nota into a runway, each ensemble showcasing how to master noir in fashion.
Julia Barretto stole the spotlight in a feather-trimmed black ensemble, embodying Old Hollywood glamour with a contemporary twist. Sofia Andres, shimmering in a strapless tube gown, added a dash of timeless elegance with a sleek silver necklace. Meanwhile, Kyline Alcantara redefined the little black dress, her minimalist silhouette elevated by an air of quiet sophistication.
The men didn’t hold back either. Kobe Paras arrived in an effortlessly cool all-black outfit, highlighted by a contrast-stitch jacket that added an edgy vibe.
Among the evening’s most talked-about looks was Kaila Estrada, who rocked a chic micro-bang hairdo with an asymmetrical black dress that screamed modern edge. Chie Filomeno softened the noir theme with an off-shoulder dress, perfectly complemented by a preppy headband that gave her look a sweet yet elevated finish.
Adding star power were Miss Universe 2022, R'Bonney Nola, LA Aguinaldo, Mikyle Quizon, and Jessica Yang, who collectively embodied ZALORA’s ethos of connecting style-savvy consumers with aspirational yet attainable fashion.
As CEO Aashish Midha emphasized, “This 11.11, we’re not just offering discounts; we’re showcasing unlimited access to the most-wanted fashion and lifestyle selections.” With up to 90% off on brands like Mango, Swarovski, and Nike, alongside exclusive perks from partners like BPI and Metrobank, ZALORA’s 11.11 isn’t just a sale—it’s a lifestyle moment.
For the fashion-forward, ZALORA’s 11.11 Mega Sale is the ultimate retail indulgence. From November 8th at 7:00 PM to November 17th, don’t just shop—transform your wardrobe and elevate your everyday. With Uma Nota as its glamorous prelude, this sale promises to be an affair to remember.
