Heart Evangelista sat in the front row at Max Mara’s Resort 2027 show at the Long Museum in Shanghai on June 16. The show was part of the Italian house’s 75th anniversary celebration, and the Filipina actress has since returned to the Philippines, LionhearTV reported.
She was not the only name on the guest list. Katie Holmes and Academy Award winner Michelle Yeoh sat alongside her. Maude Apatow, Olympic freestyle skier Eileen Gu, fashion influencer Tina Leung and socialite Nicky Hilton, who came with her parents Rick and Kathy Hilton, were also there.
Achille Maramotti founded Max Mara in Reggio Emilia, Italy, in 1951. The Shanghai evening included the unveiling of the Resort 2027 collection.
Shopping between events
Evangelista spent her free time in the city looking at smaller labels. She posted several of her finds on social media after her scheduled events were done.
Outside the front row, she designs her own jewelry collections built around gemstones. The pieces are limited editions, and many collections have sold out soon after release.
She also hosts GMA Network’s “The People Have Spoken,” which airs every Saturday. Viewers have remarked on her growing ease as host, and some speculate that more television work is coming. She has become choosier in recent years about which international fashion weeks and luxury events she attends.
