Famed for her colorful and distinct fashion style, Magdangal has also been referred to as a fashion icon of her time. Writing for the Entertainment section of "abs-cbn.com", Mary Ann Bardinas stated: "...she also became an icon when it comes to fashion. Her quirky and bubbly persona and flamboyant and psychedelic style became her trademark... One of her major influences were the glittery and colorful butterfly hair clips in different shapes and sizes. Besides, her full bangs with long hair, striking highlights, and crazy braids also became a trend among young girls and teenagers. Apparently, she wasn't afraid to experiment and to veer away from the norms, and established her own rules when it comes to styling herself. She'd been the trendsetter for unique, flashy, and girly styles." Magdangal's style is often defined as "walking Christmas tree", with entertainment writer Bianca Geli of "pep.ph" saying: "The 1990s fashion may have come and go, but [Magdangal's] offbeat fashion, like a 'walking Christmas tree,' is an indelible trademark of the era."
