issue 04: the fashion issue
Marking Hella Pinay's return to print after an almost two-year hiatus, Issue 04: The Fashion Issue explores fashion as a vehicle for identity, storytelling, and cultural preservation. Moving beyond aesthetics, the issue spotlights designers, artists, and creatives across the Philippines and diaspora who use clothing, textiles, and adornment to express lineage, challenge convention, and build community. Featuring cover star Savina Rise Mizrahi, photographed by Belg Belgica and styled by Jodinand Aguillon, this long-awaited fourth issue celebrates fashion as both self-expression and cultural dialogue—and reaffirms Hella Pinay's commitment to creating space for bold, independent Filipino voices.
