The Best Dressed Women of the Philippines (BDWP) raised P30,087,700 for the Philippine Cancer Society (PCS) during the 23rd Annual Awards Ball held at Shangri-La The Fort, Taguig City, on Tuesday, 23 September.

The annual fashion-and-charity event, which began in 2004, brings together the fashion and business communities to raise funds for the Philippine Cancer Society and support its cancer-related programs.

The program featured several awards and recognition segments, including the Best Dressed Women of the Philippines XXIII Hall of Fame, Youth Ambassadors for Life, Best Dressed Couple, and Men of Exemplary Influence 2026.

Notable attendees included Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray, who showcased a creation by Davao-based fashion designer Wilson Limon. “Concert King” Martin Nievera also performed during the event.
