Alexa Ilacad Radiates Confidence as UNIQLO’s New Bra Top Ambassador: Celebrating Comfort, Support, and Self-Expression
Confidence starts with comfort—and UNIQLO is once again redefining effortless style with its latest Bra Top campaign, featuring the ever-inspiring Alexa Ilacad as the newest Local Celebrity Partner. In an intimate and empowering event, Alexa joined host Bianca Gonzales-Intal and stylist Kat Cruz-Villanueva in a heartfelt conversation about finding inner strength, embracing self-expression, and the beauty of built-in support—both in life and in fashion.
A Celebration of Modern Women and Effortless Support
Held in Manila, the event brought together women from all walks of life to talk about what “support” truly means. For Alexa, it’s a balance between embracing vulnerability and growing through experience. “Growing up in front of the camera, I was always conscious of my looks,” she shared. “People tend to compare you to others, but over time, you gain wisdom and learn to handle it with grace.”
Kat echoed this sentiment, noting that confidence is something you earn through perseverance. “When you’ve done your best and learned from mistakes, you can stand tall in who you are,” she said.
Together, their conversation reflected UNIQLO’s philosophy—celebrating women who are strong, stylish, and unapologetically themselves.
Comfort That Moves with You
In true UNIQLO fashion, the Bra Top Collection combines elegance with functionality, offering comfort that feels natural and liberating. Alexa described it as her go-to piece for busy workdays and shoots. “When I wear the Bra Top, I can just focus on my work because I feel secure and comfortable,” she said.
Stylist Kat Cruz-Villanueva added that the Bra Top is a versatile essential for her fashion toolkit. “It’s something I always include in my styling gigs,” she explained. “Models love it because it moves with them—it’s effortless, flattering, and easy to pair.”
