MEGA - February 2024

In dieser Angelegenheit

This February, MEGA gets bigger—bigger ideas, bigger purpose, and literally, bigger in size. We embrace this change by putting in the spotlight artists who go beyond normal bounds to make their voices be heard. In our Fashion Feature, we present MEGA’s milestones, where we look forward to new beginnings by giving honor to the moments and people whose great legacies we stand on. We also present new sections: MEGA Style, MEGA Active, and MEGA Man—they are a testament to our belief that fashion is for everyone. To celebrate our 32nd year in this ever-changing industry, we present the 32 designers to watch. These young artists are shaping the way we look at and feel about fashion today.

Fronting our cover is none other than Heart Evangelista, whose trajectory to becoming a global fashion icon can only mean bigger and more impactful sartorial adventures in the future.

It’s a new and different MEGA, but it also goes back to its core. We will keep navigating the world as Philippines’ best fashion magazine.
