Kim Chiu was 17 the first time she walked the red carpet of the first Star Magic Ball held on August 5, 2006.
It was more than a year after she won the first Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition.
It was four months after the successful run of her first primetime soap, Sana Maulit Muli.
It was a month before the release of her first major movie project, I've Fallen For You, which also starred her then-screen partner Gerald Anderson.
That evening, she was poised to become the television's next big thing, and showed that she also was the fashion world's most promising.
See how Kim's beauty and style transformed right before our eyes at the annual Star Magic Ball.
