It was an evening of beauty, glamour and philanthropy at the 13th Annual Best Dressed Women of the Philippines Ball held at the Makati Shangri-La. The annual gala led by Angola Consul Helen Ong paid tribute to the late Imelda Coujuanco who with her unwavering passion and generosity has made the annual ball an institution, making it one of the biggest fund-raising charity events for the Philippine Cancer Society since 2004. This year’s awardees led by Carolyn Lee Tan, Jerianne Ejercito Peña, Inga Cabangon Chua, Sheila Marie Dizon Carlos and Dr. Cecilia Ramos Bernad walked down the runway in their finest gowns serenaded by one of the country’s top classical singers Antonio Ferrer.
