Annabelle Mcdonnell returns to roots with singkil-inspired costume

Miss Globe Philippines 2025 Annabelle McDonnell stuns in a breathtaking Singkil-inspired National Costume, a tribute to the Tri-People of Mindanao and her proud heritage from Iligan City.

“My great-great-grandmother was a proud Maranao woman, and I wanted to honor my heritage through this costume,” Annabelle shared.

The regal ensemble, designed by @chinochristopherson, features intricate patterns, golden accents, and flowing textiles that echo the grace and rhythm of the traditional Maranao dance. Captured beautifully by @raymondsaldana_klickbox, the look is completed with flawless glam by @jimryanros and Kurt Rosales.

A powerful homage to culture and identity, Annabelle’s national costume is a reminder that beauty shines brightest when rooted in history and pride.
