“It is not just about being on the cover, but also about having the opportunity to share my journey, my advocacies, and the message I want to impart to other women,” Alvarez said. “Behind the crown is a woman with dreams, experiences and challenges, and someone who continues to strive. I want to inspire other women to believe in themselves and never be afraid to pursue their dreams.”
Through its maiden issue, the magazine aims to highlight stories of success, inspiration and contribution from Filipinos across different industries including entertainment, media, fashion and public service.
“I hope this will inspire many people. We are not only looking at what is in front of the camera, but also the story behind every personality and what they have contributed to the industry,” Bravo said.
