MEGA Fashion Awards 2024 honors the catwalk mainstays and the most in-demand faces in fashion. Here are the official nominees for the Best of the Year Model
With an influence that transcends the runways and magazine pages, models have made outstanding contributions to several industries. At the MEGA Fashion Awards (MFA) 2024, a selection of women stands out for their artistry and skill alongside fellow creatives, designers, tastemakers, and talents. While they remain part of the public lexicon, these have consistently redefined the standards in anything that the assignment calls for.

Maria Isabela Galeria
Beauty queen and bona fide model Maria Isabela Galeria is a major force in modeling; she has walked for several of fashion’s most revered designers. In the saying, “Clothes are nothing without someone inside who knows how to move,” Maria Isabela Galeria embodies that “someone.” An assertive, strut-serving fashion icon, Galeria and her unmatched charisma beyond the runway has made her the darling of designers in the country.
Galeria has posed for MEGA wearing Michael Leyva, Leo Almodal, and R’Bonney Nola. She is also on the cover of MEGA’s latest September 2024 issue featuring 50 Models of the Moment.

Jessica Yang
Manila-based model Jessica Yang is muse for countless luxury names in fashion and beauty. Over her pioneering career, she has sported a number of looks ranging from haute couture to ready-to-wear runway ensembles that has enabled her to build a portfolio as versatile and volatile as she is. Hailing from Taiwan, Yang quickly became a fixture on the Philippine high fashion circuit.
She walked for BENCH Fashion Week Holiday 2024, posed for MEGA’s February 2024 Issue, MEGA Next event in 2023, and MEGAStyle in 2020.
Siobhan Moylan
Filipina-Irish model Siobhan Moylan’s enduring collaborations with the industry’s most significant innovators and creatives have most fortified her influence in the fashion world and beyond. A supermodel worthy of the word’s prodigious prefix, Moylan is carving her own modeling route with her head-turning presence in runways, editorials, and red carpets.
Moylan, aside from being on the cover of MEGA’s latest September 2024 issue, was also one of MEGA’s Women To Watch in 2023, and a part of MEGA’s July 2023 issue. She has also shared with MEGA her journey in preparing for the Opulence Ball 2023.
Taki Shimada
One of the next top models of the Philippines, Taki Shimada is one of the most in demand faces of today—even though modeling wasn’t initially a part of her career plan. Starting her career through a model search, Shimada continues to make a name for herself in the high fashion world with precision in her poses and walks.
Taki Shimada modeled for the MEGA July 2024 Artist Confidential story, the preview collections of the six finalists of the MEGA Young Designers Competition, MEGA’s July 2023 Designer Profile story, BENCH Fashion Week, and also for MEGA’s latest September 2024 issue: 50 Models of the Moment.
Lou Yanong
A formidable presence on the runway and in front of the camera, Lou Yanong embodies a subversive glamour that is wholly her own. This style-setter has an illustrious portfolio whose hallmarks include multiple magazine appearances, opening for Vania Romoff, and ruling the cover of MEGA’s September 2024 issue as one of the 50 Models of the Moment. As one of the in-demand faces in the industry, she has showcased her versatility and fashion-forward sensibilities.
With her best friend and fellow Best of the Year Model nominee Jach Manere, Yanong appeared in MEGA’s June 2023 issue. She also walked for BENCH Body for the BENCH Fashion Week Holiday 2024, and was the face of MEGA’s April 2022 Main Fashion story.
Jach Manere
In her fashion endeavors, Jach Manere has become quite successful. Not only does she know how to command the attention of a room with her masterful runway strut, but she also makes her indomitability known by gracing numerous magazine covers and fronting campaigns. On the catwalk or on the pages of a magazine, the model brings her trademark blend of artistry and style to the forefront of high fashion.
Manere was the cover star for MEGAStyle back in December 2020. She is also part of MEGA’s 50 Models of the Moment, modeled a Stylephile feature with fellow nominee Lou Yanong last June 2023, and a MEGA shoot for Gucci with Nadine Lustre and BJ Pascual.
