In a groundbreaking partnership that marries the glitz of global fashion with heartfelt philanthropy, Alegre de Pilipinas has announced its collaboration with SMGlobal Catwalk. This alliance is not just about showcasing high fashion on the world stage; it’s a powerful union aimed at leveraging the universal appeal of fashion for humanitarian causes. At the helm of SMGlobal Catwalk is Samina Mughal, an award-winning international fashion designer and a beacon of hope for many across the globe.
Samina Mughal’s journey in the fashion industry is one marked by creativity, innovation, and compassion. As the founder and executive producer of SMGlobal Catwalk, she has built an international fashion empire that extends far beyond the runway. With operations spanning New York, London, Paris, Milan, Dubai, and Dallas, TX, her brand has become synonymous with global chic and sophistication. However, what sets SMGlobal Catwalk apart is its unwavering commitment to philanthropy.
Under Mughal’s leadership, SMGlobal Catwalk goes beyond aesthetics to impact lives positively. A portion of ticket sales from her events supports children’s charities in third-world countries through the Relief SMGlobal Foundation Inc., a 501c3 charity founded by Mughal herself. This organization focuses on empowering women and children around the world through education and training initiatives funded by global fashion and modeling events.

The partnership between Alegre de Pilipinas and SMGlobal Catwalk is a testament to their shared vision of using fashion as a vehicle for social change. Alegre de Pilipinas has always been at the forefront of advocating for community upliftment in various sectors including education, health care, and environmental conservation. Joining forces with SMGlobal Catwalk amplifies their ability to make a significant impact on global humanitarian efforts.
One of Mughal’s heartfelt initiatives is providing Stage 4 cancer survivors with opportunities to fulfill their dreams of modeling on the catwalk during Fashion Week events in New York and Dallas. These moments offer immeasurable joy and respite to those battling life-threatening illnesses—transforming runways into platforms for courage and resilience.
In September 2022, Samina Mughal’s personal battle with breast cancer added another layer to her advocacy work. Her triumphant journey to becoming cancer-free inspired the launch of her first Annual Pink Gala in October 2023—an event dedicated not only to celebrating her recovery but also raising awareness and funds for others fighting this formidable disease.
The services offered by SMGlobal Catwalk are comprehensive—encompassing everything from high-profile runway shows in all major fashion capitals to model management services, an online TV channel featuring exclusive content related to the world of haute couture, as well as training academies designed for aspiring designers and models.
Moreover, SMGlobal Catwalk’s commitment extends into nurturing emerging talent through competitions such as Premier Designer Competition & Premier Model Competition—further evidence of its mission to provide platforms that elevate budding stars in fashion while maintaining a steadfast focus on charitable endeavors.
As Samina Mughal aptly puts it: “It’s better to give than to receive.” This philosophy lies at the heart of both organizations’ missions as they embark on this exciting partnership. Through innovative marketing strategies including social media engagement (www.alegredepilipinas.net), strategic partnerships with like-minded entities worldwide alongside meticulously planned events—they aim not only to set new trends but also usher in an era where fashion serves as a potent instrument for good.
