I remember when I was a kid, I used to have subscriptions to magazines back when that was a thing,&quot; she recalled in an interview with Miss International 2016 Kylie Verzosa on her podcast, &quot;Almost Honest.&quot;</p><p>&quot;When it comes to Fashion Week? If I&#x27;m gonna be completely honest about it, I did ask about it,&quot; she revealed. &quot;Like how much does it actually cost to do Fashion Week?&quot;</p><p>But after learning how much money she needed to spend if she were to pursue a path as a style influencer, Young said she would rather just enjoy Fashion Week from the sidelines.</p><p>&quot;You know me, I&#x27;m very frugal... I heard from the grapevine that it does cost quite a bit if you want to do something like that,&quot; she told Verzosa. </p><p>&quot;I get that because like a business, if you want to be successful, you have to invest money in something. But when I tried to look at it from my perspective, I didn&#x27;t know if that aligned with what I wanted,&quot; Young explained. </p><p>&quot;Is this the kind of business that I want, doing Fashion Week? Maybe it&#x27;s not something that I&#x27;m completely passionate about to invest money in. So that&#x27;s why I don&#x27;t do stuff like that because I know na baka I can put my money somewhere else,&quot; added the first-time mom, who is also into gaming, art, and content creation.</p><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DV8c4S6ARtO/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A22845%2C%22ls%22%3A22425%2C%22le%22%3A22639.300000071526%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="881" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>Young went on to commend those who have been making a mark on the Fashion Week scene, saying she is happy where she is in her life right now.</p><p>&quot;Props to people doing Fashion Week, I mean that&#x27;s great for them. If they have that money to invest in themselves, do what you gotta do,&quot; she said. &quot;But from my perspective, I wasn&#x27;t sure talaga na this is something I want to be in as my work.&quot; </p><p>&quot;Maybe not. Maybe a part of me wants it, so I just invest in pieces that I feel resonate with.&quot;</p><p>Verzosa, for her part, shared Young&#x27;s sentiment, saying: &quot;I also love fashion and I really think it&#x27;s a big investment... Mahal talaga siya.&quot;</p><p>Earlier this year, another former beauty queen, <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/lifestyle/health-beauty-fashion/2026/2/13/catriona-gray-admits-fashion-week-is-not-for-her-not-something-that-really-resonated-with-me-1734">Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray</a>, was asked if she has considered becoming a style influencer like Wurtzbach.</p><p>&quot;It&#x27;s not something that really resonated with me,&quot; said Gray, who has always been known for translating her artistic vision into clothing, jewelry, and even furniture.</p><p>&quot;It&#x27;s not to say that I can&#x27;t appreciate a good look and to have pasabog on social media and all that. Siguro I just put my attention elsewhere,&quot; she added.</p>
