I am not understanding why there is a delay to put Heart Evangelista on the cover. She's one of the biggest fashion girls of the Philippines, gives Crazy Rich Asian vibes, but in real life and ACTUALLY knows high fashion and has relationships with the house. This cover is better than the last two, as far as representation. I see Vogue Philippines is struggling to find their place within the cultural arena of Conde Nast, as they battle with colorism and aspects of Chinese-centric beauty standards that take away from more Filipino heritage, in my opinion. Sharing as a Filipino-American.
Watching this edition very closely.
