Just like a debut that signifies a new chapter, Village Pipol’s 18th year represented a coming-of-age moment—a reflection on the magazine’s legacy, the people who have helped it grow, and the bright future it envisions. For nearly two decades, Village Pipol has become a trusted platform that celebrates authentic Filipino stories, inspiring individuals to dream big while staying true to their roots.
Anna Magkawas: The Face of Resilience and Authentic Success
At the heart of this milestone stood Anna Magkawas, the cover personality of Village Pipol’s 18th anniversary issue. A celebrated entrepreneur and the visionary leader behind Luxe Beauty and Wellness Group, Anna perfectly embodied the essence of this year’s theme. Her story of resilience, humility, and purpose reflects what it truly means to be “powered by roots.”
Known for her inspiring leadership and grounded character, Anna has become a role model for aspiring entrepreneurs nationwide. Her success story is built on authenticity and compassion—a philosophy that resonates deeply with the magazine’s mission of celebrating stories that empower.
“Success means nothing if you forget the people who were with you from the very beginning. Always stay rooted, remain humble, and never think too highly of yourself,” Anna shared.
Her presence at the anniversary celebration reminded everyone that success is not achieved in isolation—it’s a collective triumph shaped by community, collaboration, and gratitude.
Why Anna Magkawas Was the Perfect Cover Star
Regino Rubi, Village Pipol’s Sales and Marketing Head, explained why Anna was chosen to headline such a monumental issue.
“She truly deserves to be the main cover. Even now that she’s at the peak of her success, we still see her working with the same people, finding time for her family, and always putting her Luxers at the heart of her business,” Rubi said.
Anna’s leadership, commitment to her team, and deep sense of purpose mirror the values that have kept Village Pipol thriving for 18 years—credibility, creativity, and connection.
Gilded Origins: A Night of Elegance and Celebration
The event, themed “Gilded Origins,” showcased a palette of black, silver, and gold, representing strength, growth, and triumph. It was a night of elegance, heartfelt stories, and shared toasts, highlighting the unity of brands, personalities, and creatives who continue to support Village Pipol’s journey.
Among the guests were notable figures from the fashion, beauty, and entertainment industries, as well as long-time brand partners who have been instrumental in the magazine’s success. The celebration was not just about looking back—it was a forward-looking declaration of purpose, reminding everyone that the magazine’s greatest strength lies in its community.
