NUSTAR Online Transforms After-Dark Glamour at The New Nocturnals
This year’s Halloween season kicked off with Manila’s style elite as they gathered once again under the midnight glow of The New Nocturnals, one of the city’s most anticipated and fashion-forward Halloween affairs, held on 29 October 2025. NUSTAR Online, the country’s premier luxury entertainment platform, elevated the evening as official partner and sponsor, weaving together style, imagination, and grand revelry.

Chic and Style Dare to Play
The New Nocturnals, an evolution of the iconic Opulence Ball, reimagined the Halloween tradition as a theatrical celebration of personal style and bold self-expression rooted in individual interpretations of this year’s theme.
NUSTAR Online brought the enchantment to a wider audience through a livestream of the red-carpet arrivals, offering fans and curious viewers a digital front-row seat to the spectacle. The experience continued on NUSTAR Online: Exclusives, where hosts Anne De Mesa and Jercy Raine Cruz guided viewers through exclusive behind-the-scenes interviews, playful style reveals, and candid moments with celebrities and society personalities. Viewers discovered untold stories, costume inspirations, and unexpected details that made every transformation uniquely magical.
Guests on-ground also delighted in bespoke NUSTAR Online macarons, a sweet nod to the convergence of luxury and playfulness.
No evening of transformation would be complete without honoring the most striking metamorphosis that embodies the spirit of the night with the NUSTAR of the Night Best Dressed Award. Andrea Brillantes slipped onto the scene as a “Black Cat”—the most recognizable icon of midnight mystique. Her look captured the feline allure and secretive charm of the evening, proving that even the simplest costumes can command the spotlight.
Collaborators of Elevated Experiences
The New Nocturnals and NUSTAR Online both lead the way in creating spaces and experiences—whether in person or online—that honor artistry, individuality, and the exhilarating spirit of reinvention.
Once known as The Opulence Ball, The New Nocturnals ushers in a new era for Manila’s high-society nightlife, where glamour tells the story and imagination takes the spotlight. As attendees cross from opulence to nocturnal wonder, we embark on a shared journey of reinvention. In this spirit, NUSTAR Online reinvents itself as a curator of culture and a trailblazer in premium online leisure.
This collaboration unites two realms—physical and virtual—driven by a shared passion for elegance and unforgettable experiences.
Celebrating Creativity, Connection, and Culture
NUSTAR Online reinforces its commitment to elevating Filipino luxury and entertainment by positioning itself at the intersection of culture, creativity, and technology. From dazzling red carpets to immersive digital experiences, the brand inspires a new generation of luxury seekers: bold, sophisticated, and globally attuned.

Together, we’re shaping experiences, both in person and online, where creativity flourishes, reinvention is encouraged, and guests are welcomed into something truly extraordinary,” says Krizia Cortez, Director of Public Relations for NUSTAR Online.
