Krishnah Gravidez served all the looks at the Miss World 2025 pageant and ate, from her Filipiniana-inspired gowns to her figure-hugging numbers.
The 24-year-old lass from Baguio City left no stones unturned in her bid for the Philippines’ second Miss World crown — from her polished communication skills to her heartfelt Beauty with a Purpose project. Pageant fans saw her bring her A-game at every performance, while every wardrobe change was a visual feast.
While the winning queen will yet be determined during the coronation at the HITEX Exhibition Centre in Telegana, India on May 31, Gravidez remains to be a formidable contender for the crown.
As we cheer Gravidez on her Miss World quest, here is a peek at her breathtaking looks throughout her stacked lineup of pre-pageant activities.
Close-up interview

Gravidez honored her Filipino heritage with a skin tone custom-made terno by AJ Javier during her close-up interview. While the terno hugged the beauty queen’s curves, the use of sheer fabric, floral appliques, and structured fitting, as well as using pearl drop earrings as the finishing touch, was an elegant way of introducing herself and the Philippines at the same time.
‘Beauty with a Purpose’ gala

Gravidez put all the stops into her “Beauty with a Purpose” gala look with a regal tribute to Telegana. Donning a Rian Fernandez creation, the Baguio-based stunner looked like royalty in a robe-like dress lined with shimmering gold trim and feathers, highlighting her queen-like glow.

Gravidez didn’t let a heartfelt tribute from Jojo Bragais go to waste, as she looked like a flower in bloom in a purple number. The mini dress resembled a flower with petal-like layers, feathers, and tulle on the bodice and skirt, which allowed the shoe designer’s nude heels to shine as well.

The Baguio-based stunner, who opted to have her hair pulled back, channeled her inner Moana à la “How Far I’ll Go” in a light blue Fatima Beltran number. The gown resembles the ocean waves with its light blue hue, tulle skirt, and matching boa with blue appliques.

Emulating the plumage and theatrics of a Palawan peacock, Gravidez was a bombshell in her blue Rian Fernandez jumpsuit featuring sleeves that extend into a moving cape, Swarovski crystals, and ruffles that resemble the bird’s tail.
According to the designer, the jumpsuit is a celebration of “Palawan’s rich biodiversity and natural splendor,” and a tribute to “Filipino heritage and the island’s breathtaking wildlife.”

Putting another twist on the Filipino terno, Gravidez looked sophisticated in her black Francis Libiran number. One of the highlights of the terno was the butterfly sleeves and bodice done in an ornate, cutout pattern, giving a simple yet sophisticated take on the outfit.

Embodying the queenly presence of a Miss World titleholder, Gravidez was statuesque in a tube, body-hugging midi dress by Daniel Manila, with its tri-color pattern framing her curves.
Opening ceremony

It felt like the second coming of Princess Gandingan during the Miss World opening ceremony in a traditional singkil costume by Simeon Cayetano, complete with a magenta fan lined with feathers and an orange and pink umbrella.
The magenta and pink costume features hand-sewn sequins, metallic embroidered trim, and intricate beadwork, as well as an inaul-inspired sash and a bejewelled headpiece that celebrates Maranao culture.
“Inspired by the Maranao epic Darangen, the costume pays homage to the legendary Princess Gandingan, brought to life through Krishnah’s performance of the traditional Singkil dance… Every detail of Princess Gandingan honors the strength, grace, and cultural pride of the Filipino spirit—a moving tribute to tradition in motion,” Cayetano said of the finery. /edv
