This was prolly the first time I've ever watched this, and I picked her to win as soon as she went into the top 16. She's stunning!

I'm a sucker for National Costumes, and thankfully a website has pictures with commentary!

Miss Mexico is a whole lot of look, and Tanzania stole all of the from Tina Turner in mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. Sweden needs to stop with Sonja Henie performs Black Swan, and Panama, keep all felines away from her.

Some of these are just outrageous. Were they magically created by throwing together:
Bob Mackie designs for Cher
Bjork's swan dress
leftovers from a Nicki Minaj video
everything Liberace ever owned
every item at Epcot and ideas for Its a Small World at Disney

We've been watching series shows on netflix recently, but I caught a few (very few) minutes of this last night. There were a lot of women! Quite a big production.

lolol . Now all I can think of is that comedy show where John Candy played a Scandinavian and kept screaming, "Sonja Henie's tutu!"

I'm sorry, but not televising the costumes SUCKS. I don't want to just see the top 10 or whatever they showed.

They don't have all of them, but way more than just 10.

Too funny. I want a Kazach bride to dust my ceilings...or maybe I can just get one of those headdresses.

I saw that, but after I realized there were no costumes, I really stopped paying attention and eventually turned it off.

Why is it that every year for National Costume, most Caribbean and South American Miss Universe contestant will appear to have re-used their costumes from Carnival/Caribana earlier in the year?
