Chelsea Fernandez made a powerful style statement at the Miss Cosmo 2025 jury session, proving once again why she remains one of the Philippines’ most compelling contenders on the international pageant stage. With poise, confidence, and unmistakable presence, the Filipina beauty turned the runway into a realm of fantasy and strength.
For the evening wear presentation, Chelsea emerged in a striking light blue and silver gown that shimmered with movement and symbolism. Designed by renowned Filipino couturier Leo Almodal, the piece drew inspiration from dragons—creatures long associated with power, protection, and mystique. The gown’s intricate details featured scale-like textures and wave motifs, creating the illusion of a mythical guardian rising from the sea.
Describing her look on Instagram, Chelsea wrote, “A vision forged in fantasy.” She further shared, “Sculpted in icy blue and silver, this dragon gown comes alive by Leo Almodal with hand-embroidered scales, crystal flames, and a majestic dragon crest guarding the heart. Power, elegance, and legend—woven into every shimmer.”
The gown did more than sparkle; it told a story. With every step, Chelsea embodied controlled strength and quiet authority—qualities that resonated strongly during the all-important jury session.
Equally commanding was her appearance in the swimsuit portion, where Chelsea showcased her athletic build and toned core in a blue bikini. Confident and composed, she moved with ease, balancing fierceness with elegance—an essential combination in modern pageantry.
Hailing from Sultan Kudarat, Chelsea is no stranger to international competition. She previously represented the Philippines at The Miss Globe 2022, where she finished in the Top 15, gaining valuable experience on the global stage. That experience was evident in her assured walk, refined styling, and calm command of the moment at Miss Cosmo.
The Miss Cosmo 2025 pageant, now on its second edition, is set to culminate on December 20 in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The reigning queen, Ketut Permata Juliastrid of Indonesia, will crown her successor at the grand finale.
As the competition heats up, Chelsea Fernandez continues to position herself as a formidable contender—one who blends artistry, discipline, and storytelling into every appearance. At the jury session, she did not merely wear a gown or a swimsuit; she projected identity, intention, and undeniable star power.
