MusaFilipino tennis star Alex Eala has added another milestone to her growing list of achievements—gracing the cover of Vogue while unveiling her very own Nike collection. The 19-year-old, who has been steadily rising in the WTA rankings, showcased the exclusive line in a bold, fashion-forward editorial that blends her athletic identity with contemporary style.
The collection, designed in collaboration with Nike, reflects Eala’s personal journey and cultural heritage. Featuring performance wear in vibrant colorways inspired by the Philippines’ landscapes, the pieces balance on-court functionality with streetwear appeal. “I wanted this collection to represent both my roots and my competitive spirit,” Eala said in her Vogue interview.
Photographed in dynamic, sport-inspired poses, Eala wears key pieces from the line, including a lightweight match dress, limited-edition sneakers, and a warm-up jacket emblazoned with subtle Filipino design elements. The feature highlights her role as one of Southeast Asia’s most prominent young athletes breaking into both sports and global fashion.
Nike praised Eala’s creative vision and dedication to the project, noting that her voice was integral to the design process. The collaboration further cements her status as not only a tennis prodigy but also a cultural ambassador for Filipino athletes on the world stage.
The Vogue cover marks another high-profile moment for Eala, who is preparing for her upcoming US Open campaign. With her tennis career gaining momentum and her influence expanding into fashion, the young star continues to redefine what it means to be a modern athlete.
