The 2022 GMA Thanksgiving Gala: Top 10 Best Looks
The Kapuso Network ended the month of July with a bang! Celebrating its 72nd anniversary through a Thanksgiving Gala held last July 30. As expected, the stars shone bright as ever donning their best Old Hollywood glamor looks for the night. In that evening, a sea of black and white dazzling gowns, an arsenal of faux-fur coats and bedazzled heels paraded onto the halls of Shangri-La The Fort Grand Ballroom. A fun and fashion-filled celebration with a nod to Old Hollywood as the official motif of the event.
The notion of glamour in Old Hollywood is typically all about glittering dresses, fur coats, voluminous hairstyles, and bold-red lips. These are the glam looks that strode the red carpet back then.
