Dana 20. februara 2026. energija na London Fashion Week usmerila se ka dizajnerki čija vizija sve sigurnije prelazi granice. Chona Bacaoco, osnivač @mmmilanofashionhouse, predstavila je kolekciju koja spaja strukturu i romantiku, istražujući modernu ženstvenost kroz uzvišenu izradu i vrhunsko zanatstvo.

Na luksuznoj prezentaciji u prvom redu našla su se i značajna imena, među kojima i preduzetnica Elma Aveiro, sestra svetske fudbalske ikone Cristiana Ronalda. Njeno prisustvo dodatno je naglasilo rastući međunarodni ugled dizajnerke i pažnju globalne publike usmerenu ka pisti te večeri.

Jedan od najupečatljivijih trenutaka na reviji bio je izlazak manekenke Riona Dighe, koja je debitovala u upečatljivoj haljini što je savršeno dočarala suštinu kolekcije: odmerenu, skulpturalnu i beskompromisno sofisticiranu. Riona, 1st Runner-Up Miss Teen Universe UK, za kratko vreme postala je prepoznatljivo lice modnih prestonica. Samo nekoliko dana ranije prošetala je pistom na New York Fashion Week, gde je od 11. do 16. februara učestvovala na više revija, a tokom te modne nedelje pojavila se i na naslovnoj strani magazina Grazia.

Riona Dighe, koja sarađuje sa PR agencijom Paris Runway Official, predstavljena je u brojnim publikacijama, na naslovnicama i revijama širom sveta. Sa brojnim gradovima i modnim pistama iza sebe, sve češće radi sa nekim od najpoznatijih svetskih dizajnera, među kojima je i Chona Bacaoco.

Rionin raspored prati tempo globalne modne scene. Dana 19. februara učestvovala je na Emerging Designer Showcase u organizaciji Paris Runway Official, realizovanom paralelno sa Fashion Week and the City, a već naredne večeri, 20. februara, prošetala je londonskom pistom za Bacaoco. Taj kontinuitet ne govori samo o Rioninoj svestranosti, već i o sposobnosti dizajnerke da prepozna i podrži mlade talente u ključnim trenucima njihove karijere. Chona je poznata po saradnji sa nekim od najboljih svetskih modela, uz podršku dizajnera, uticajnih prijatelja i kreativaca. Ništa ne usporava ovu couture dizajnerku.

Londonska prezentacija brenda Bacaoco realizovana je uz kompletan tim modela i kreativaca — produkcija koju su obeležili preciznost i međunarodna saradnja. Ipak, London je bio tek početak šire evropske turneje. Dizajnerka je predstavila kolekciju u Milanu 28. februara, a potom i u Parizu 6. i 7. marta. Chona dodatno učvršćuje poziciju @mmmilanofashionhouse kao brenda koji ambiciozno širi svoje prisustvo na najuticajnijim svetskim modnim scenama.

Riona Dighe nastaviće saradnju sa brendom i tokom predstojećih revija u Milanu i Parizu, dodatno potvrđujući snažnu sinergiju između modela i modne kuće dok zajedno prelaze iz grada u grad.

Chona Bacaoco Welcomes Emerging Model Riona Dighe to Walk at London Fashion Week, Milan, and Paris with Notable Front-Row Guests  

On February 20th, 2026, the energy of London Fashion Week shifted toward a designer whose vision is steadily crossing borders. Chona Bacaoco, founder of @mmmilanofashionhouse, unveiled a collection that balanced structure with romance and a study in modern femininity rendered through elevated craftsmanship.

The upscale presentation drew a notable front row, including entrepreneur Elma Aveiro, sister of global football icon Cristiano Ronaldo. Her presence underscored the designer’s growing international appeal and the global eyes turning toward the runway that evening.

Among the standout runway moments was model Riona Dighe, who debuted a striking gown that captured the collection’s essence: poised, sculptural, and unapologetically refined. Riona, the 1st Runner-Up of Miss Teen Universe UK, has quickly become a recognizable face across fashion capitals. Just days prior, she had walked at New York Fashion Week, appearing in multiple shows from February 11–16 and featured on the cover of Grazia during the week’s programming. 

Riona Dighe, who works with the PR Firm, Paris Runway Official, has been featured in multiple publications, covers and runway shows all over the globe. With multiple cities and runway shows under her belt she is taking on some of the most well known designers in the world such as Chona Bacaoco.

Riona’s schedule reflected the rhythm of the global circuit. On February 19th, Riona walked in Paris Runway Official’s Emerging Designer Showcase produced alongside Fashion Week and the City, before taking the London runway for Bacaoco the following evening on February 20th. The momentum speaks not only to Riona’s versatility, but to the designer’s ability to align herself with emerging talent at pivotal career moments. Chona has been known for working with some of the world’s best models, supported by designers, influential friends, creatives and more. There is nothing slowing down the couture designer.

Bacaoco’s London presentation was delivered with a full team of models and creatives… a production marked by precision and international collaboration. Yet London was only the beginning of a broader European chapter. The designer presented in Milan on February 28th, followed by Paris on March 6–7. Chona is further cementing @mmmilanofashionhouse as a label intent on expanding its footprint across the world’s most influential fashion stages.

Riona Dighe will continue alongside the brand for both upcoming runway presentations, reinforcing the synergy between model and maison as they move from city to city.
