R’Bonney Gabriel opens up on style, purpose, and pageantry

Miss Universe 2022 R’Bonney Gabriel ushers in a new chapter of style and storytelling as she graces the premiere cover of Glen Magazine, a digital publication dedicated to global entertainment, culture, and modern pageantry.

A champion of sustainability and style, R’Bonney was unveiled as Glen’s first-ever cover star in a striking editorial that showcases her evolution from pageant queen to international tastemaker. The feature, which appears in the magazine’s debut issue, celebrates her post-crown journey, marked by fashion innovation, advocacy, and a growing presence in the creative space.

Still basking in the glow of her Miss Universe reign, R’Bonney has kept momentum with notable appearances, including New York Fashion Week, a standout showing at the Miss Universe Philippines Fashion & Gala Night, and her own capsule collection for Bench Fashion Week.

“R’Bonney continues to live a life of winning moments,” reads a recent post from the official Miss Universe Philippines Instagram, which spotlighted the Glen cover. The post also highlighted her ongoing commitment to eco-conscious fashion, an advocacy she has carried with her long after her time on the Miss Universe stage.

Also featured in Glen Magazine’s maiden issue are Miss Universe Philippines Chelsea Manalo and Filipino-American model Cole Micek. The two made waves at the magazine’s official launch held at The Vault in Bonifacio Global City, drawing buzz not only for their joint appearance but also for their stylized and intimate editorial shoot inside the issue.

Though Manalo and Micek have yet to confirm the nature of their relationship, their recent appearances together continue to stir speculation and delight fans online. Whether gracing magazine pages or attending exclusive Manila events, their chemistry remains unmistakable.

Glen Magazine’s first issue, themed “Global Game-Changers,” is now live at glenmag.com, featuring R’Bonney Gabriel, Chelsea Manalo, Cole Micek, and more voices shaping the new era of glamour, purpose, and influence.
