Fit Check: Confessions of An Ukay Queen stars Kim Chiu, along with Jake Ejercito, Angel Aquino, Kylie Verzosa, and Christopher De Leon. Nuel Naval (Family Matters, The Love Affair) directed this series with a script from Genesis Rodriguez.

Much like the ukay (secondhand) clothes that she sells, Melanie (Kim Chiu) was also “discarded,” abandoned by her own mother when she was a baby. She dreams of making it big as a fashion designer, to prove her worth and show her mother that she should’ve never left her. She finds the opportunity of a lifetime when a handsome young fashion executive, Chris (Jake Ejercito), takes notice of her talents. As Melanie steps into the fast-paced and cutthroat world of the Filipino fashion industry, she also finds herself on a journey towards self-awareness, empowerment, forgiveness, and the possibility of true love.
