Manila, Philippines — October 2025 — UNIQLO Philippines has officially welcomed actress and singer Alexa Ilacad as its newest Local Celebrity Partner for the brand’s Bra Top collection. The announcement was made during an exclusive panel discussion featuring Alexa alongside Bianca Gonzales-Intal and celebrity stylist Kat Cruz-Villanueva, highlighting how the UNIQLO Bra Top provides modern women with seamless comfort, confidence, and built-in support.
The event showcased how the Bra Top empowers women to embrace every aspect of themselves. Through a candid discussion, Alexa, Bianca, and Kat shared stories on self-expression, confidence, and the challenges faced by today’s multi-hyphenate women, emphasizing the importance of support—both emotional and functional.
“Especially growing up in front of the camera as a former child actress, I was very conscious about my looks,” Alexa shared. “People tend to compare and pit you against your peers, and sometimes you can’t help but do the same. Over time, you learn to handle it better with strength and wisdom.”
Kat Cruz-Villanueva added, “Finding your space in this industry isn’t always easy. When you put in the effort, learn from mistakes, and know who you are, it becomes easier to express yourself confidently.”
Bianca highlighted how support comes in many forms, from encouragement by peers to functional wardrobe pieces. Alexa echoed this, saying, “With our hectic schedules, it helps to wear something easy to put on. When clothing also makes you feel good and secure, it allows you to focus entirely on your work—like the UNIQLO Bra Top.”
Kat also emphasized its versatility, “When I wear it, I feel free and confident. It’s easy to mix and match, making it perfect for styling gigs where comfort and aesthetics matter.”
The UNIQLO Bra Top collection champions body positivity, comfort, and all-day confidence, making it a must-have wardrobe staple. The Ribbed Cropped Bra Top features casual contouring ribbed fabric with 360° chest support, while the Washable Knit Bra Top offers a machine-washable, sleeveless design ideal for layering or standalone wear. UNIQLO’s AIRism Bra Sleeveless Top and AIRism Bra Camisole provide stay-fresh comfort without an under-band at the back, ensuring a sleek and secure fit.
Extending the conversation beyond the event, the panel discussion will be featured on Bianca Gonzales’ Paano Ba ‘To? podcast. The full episode will be available on Facebook by the end of October and on Spotify by November, inviting listeners to reflect on confidence, comfort, and self-expression with the UNIQLO Bra Top.
