Mexican singer Thalía, renowned for her role in the hit telenovela Rosalinda, dazzled on the red carpet at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards in a stunning dress by UAE-based Filipino designer Harvey Cenit.
In an Instagram post, Cenit shared a photo of the metallic floral dress he designed for the iconic star, expressing that it has been a dream come true. He revealed that he has been a fan of the TV series since he was 14 years old, making this moment all the more special.
“It was the year 2000 when Rosalinda aired way back in the Philippines, where everyone is so passionate with telenovelas. I was 14, a dreamer. Looking forward to going home early from school so I won’t miss an episode! I think every Filipino of that age can relate!” Cenit wrote in his caption.
“As a young designer, I always wanted to dress her up, and I didn’t think this was even possible way back.
Now 24 years later, from Kawit, Medellin to the world, a dream came true,” he added.
