Created by Ash Tye and Mond Gutierrez, the New Nocturnals Ball was held at the Shooting Gallery Studios in Makati—a massive space that screams luxury and chic, making it the perfect place for a celebrity Halloween party. Guests came in with their signature Halloween costumes combining dark and fierce looks, pop culture characters, and fashion forward artistry.
The party featured party beats from Xi & Zid, Simonetti, Sodi, and Sky Dominique, and special performances by Nunoy with Leyva, Raymond, Houie, and Stephanie; while Khianna and Femme MNL took over the stage for their drag performances.
Along with the creators, known personalities also took the stage and committed themselves to the grand theme, including Hayden Kho, Richard Gutierrez, Darren Espanto, Barbie Emperial, Rufa Gutierrez, and many more.
One of the standout looks of the night is Andrea Brillantes’ “black cat” costume, incorporating the classic little black dress with black body paint and a feline head piece, which won her the Nustar of the Night award. Of the night’s festivities, Metro’s best dressed included Darren Espanto’s vampire costume that included a tailored coat and an all-black outfit, and Barbie Imperial’s elegant dark siren look.
The New Nocturnals Ball definitely elevated Halloween, setting the bar high for elegant-themed parties in the industry while showing us how celebrities can have fun when given the freedom to wear their own Halloween costumes.
