Tatler Philippines Magazine - July 2024

In this issue

Gracing the cover this month is the beautiful and award-winning actor Bea Alonzo, who’s making her debut on the Tatler pages through this stunning photo shoot led by the renowned photographer Mark Nicdao. Donning sultry pieces from Gucci’s pre-fall 2024 collection, she shares her thoughts on how she dealt with heartbreaks and setbacks, and how these made her a stronger and better person. "It was such a journey… but I have moved on and I am happy," she says.
This is also our sports issue, and our lead article, Game Changers, showcases 18 athletes who have shattered the glass ceiling in their respective sports. Not all of them are Olympians, but they have brought pride to the country through their commitment and inspiration, setting new standards in their sports. We also have a story on padel, a sport that has become a phenomenon here and internationally.
The excitement is building up as the 2024 Summer Olympics is happening this month. We cheer for the Filipino athletes who are all geared up to compete for medals, and our expectations are high in boxing, pole vaulting, gymnastics, rowing, fencing and weightlifting. We also have useful Olympic-related articles such as a Paris 2024 Guide which rounds up places to eat, shop and best things to do while in the City of Light. We also interviewed Ugo Gattoni, the official Olympic poster artist, animator and designer.
