Celebrity mamas Sunshine Cruz and Ina Raymundo recently showed us how women should uplift each other at the recent Bench Fashion Week 2024.
Despite facing criticism from bashers who often urge them to "act their age," the two stars confidently strutted down the runway wearing pieces from the brand's Summer Collection.

"This is not something a 48 year old, mom of 5 usually does—to walk down the runway among a slew of stars. It was empowering. Thank you for the opportunity @benchtm," wrote Ina in an Instagram post on March 11.

"It was so good to share this moment with my fellow Gen X, hottie mommy @sunshinecruz718," she added.
To which, Sunshine replied in a separate post, calling herself a fireball. "At 46, with three grown-up children, stepping onto the Bench Fashion Week runway for the first time was both exhilarating and empowering. Happy to see my fellow Gen Xer @inaraymundo95. Thank you for the encouraging words beautiful momma! Grateful to @benchtm for this incredible opportunity."

In February, Sunshine announced her ambassadorship with Bench Body, describing it as a dream come true. She shared a video ad, where she addressed the criticism she's faced regarding her outfit choices.
"You know what, I've been bashed. They've always told me that 'You're too old, 'Why are you wearing this and that,' 'Why are your pictures like that?' 'Why don't you act your age?'"

"So I always answer them, age is just a number, as long as you're happy. Don't let these people that doesn't really know you affect you."
