Leyna Bloom unang Pinay na rumampa sa L’Oreal catwalk at hindi si Pia
NILINAW nfg transwoman runway model na si Leyna Bloom na siya ang kauna-unahang “Filipino woman” na rumampa sa catwalk ng L’Oreal fashion show sa Paris Fashion Show at hindi si Pia Wurtzbach.
Sa kanyang Instagram page ay inilahad niya na siya ang unang Pinay na rumampa sa naturang event at hindi totoo ang lumalabas na claims na ang Miss Universe 2015 ang unang Pinay.
“I’m incredibly grateful to @lorealparis for inviting me to be part of such a powerful and inspiring show. Reflecting on this journey, it feels surreal that nearly three years have passed since I made history as the first #Filipino and #BlaanTribe woman to walk the prestigious L’Oréal Paris runway, right in front of the iconic Eiffel Tower,” lahad ni Leyna sa kanyang appreciation post.
Dagdag pa niya, “That moment, shared with @katgraham, is etched in my heart as a powerful reminder of how far we’ve come. We absolutely owned that runway!”
Ikinuwento pa niya na malalim ang kahalagahan ng naturang event sa kanyang buhay dahil nagkaroon siya ng pagkakataon na rumampa kasamz si Ines Rau dahil sila ang kauna-unahang trans women na rumampa sa catwalk.
Baka Bet Mo: Chavit Singson hiyang-hiya kina Pia Wurtzbach at Catriona Gray, anyare!?

“That year holds even deeper significance because I had the honor of standing alongside @supa_ines as we became the first trans women to ever walk that legendary stage. It wasn’t just about representation—it was about breaking boundaries, changing perceptions, and showing the world that beauty transcends the limits placed on us by society,” sey pa ni Leyna.
Proud rin nitong ibinandera na siya ang unang trans woman sa Amerika na tatlong taon nang ambassador partnership sa nabanggit na brand.
“In addition, I am profoundly honored to have made history as the first trans woman in America to maintain a three-year brand ambassador partnership with this incredible company. It’s a testament to the progress we’ve made, but also a reminder of the work still to be done. L’Oréal Paris has shown a commitment to embracing diversity, inclusion, and empowerment in ways that truly make a difference,” sey ni Leyna.
Hindi lang fashion show para sa kanya ang naturang event.
Sabi pa ni Leyna, “This event is more than a fashion show—it’s a celebration of women from every walk of life, each bringing her unique story, strength, and beauty to the world. It reminds us of the importance of lifting each other up, of breaking down barriers together, and of creating a future where every voice is heard, every identity celebrated.”
“Being part of a brand that champions diversity means the world to me, and together, we continue to pave the way for future generations. We are not only walking the runway; we are walking our worth, showing the world that we all belong. We are all #WorthIt.”
Sa huli ay nabanggit naman niya sina Pia Wurtzbach at Stephanie Valentine na kapwa niya mga Pinay na rumampa sa catwalk.
“Huge congratulations to my Filipino sisters, @glamzilla & @piawurtzbach, for walking the runway this year—you both looked absolutely stunning and represented us beautifully,” ani Leyna.
