The Draped Dress Gets Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach’s Stamp of Approval at New York Fashion Week
Summer might be over, but Filipina style icon Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach has found the perfect way to transform the draped dress into a transitional wardrobe staple. On September 7, the star stepped out in New York to attend the Prabal Gurung Spring Summer 2025 show. While her style never goes unnoticed — Pia is always among the buzziest stars at Fashion Week — this time, she caught attention for sporting one of the most anticipated fall trends.

The Draped Dress Is In
Draped dresses might be generally associated with the hot-weather season, but this year, they’ve emerged as must-have fall items. From the Fall Winter 2024 runways of brands such as Acne Studios, Jacquemus, Ferragamo and JW Anderson straight to the streets of fashion capitals, the draped dress is shaping to become one of this season’s favorite pieces.
What better proof than to witness fashionista Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach putting her spin on this style staple? While in New York for the city’s highly awaited Fashion Week, the Filipina star embraced the draped dress trend with a summer flair. Pia’s look featured a lush green sleeveless dress with draping details on the waist and a straight maxi skirt.
The column dress was stylishly accessorized with a buttonscarves’ Britney bag and statement gold earrings. As the cherry on top, Pia opted for fall-leaning beauty with a sleek hair bun and cherry red lipstick.
