Christmas may still be a few weeks away, but ABS-CBN kicked off the holiday vibes early with Star Magical Christmas 2025. The network's top Kapamilya stars gathered at Okada Manila for a night of sparkle, shine, and whimsy, showing up in looks that ranged from festive and playful to understated, sultry attire.

While some celebrities embraced the holiday cheer in fun ensembles, others turned heads in low-key sultry frocks that featured subtle cutouts and slinky silhouettes that had us doing a double-take. Check out the best ones we spotted below:
