A few days before the song’s release, Walt Disney Studios gave fans an exciting teaser. They shared a snippet of the lyrics and a sneak peek of Maymay’s stunning outfit. Her ensemble was inspired by Snow White and designed by Filipino fashion artist Ehrran Montoya.
Her breathtaking gown was a modern take on the princess’s iconic dress—a regal blue bodice adorned with gold embellishments, delicate white puff sleeves, and a flowing golden skirt with soft ruffles, giving it a dreamy, fairytale-like feel. The look perfectly captured the spirit of Snow White while celebrating Filipino craftsmanship.
In the comments section of Disney’s post, Maymay couldn’t contain her gratitude for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. “Thank you so much, Disney, for trusting me to be part of this project po. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity at excited for the movie to come out!”
