So...When Did Cosplaying Make it to the Miss Universe Pageant?

[xaynie]

The Miss Universe pageant will be airing in about a week or so. They just had a national costume competition. Some look like stripper costumes...others look like adaptations of anime / movie outfits. Take a look for yourself.

Oh fer cripes sakes. What is this shit supposed to be? Dawn costume contest meets Hetalia?

More comparisons:
- Miss Venezuela looks pretty Saint Seiya too.
- Psst, Miss Turkey? Wen-M did it better.

Hello!! I'm visiting your LJ and I enjoyed this link a lot!

Beauty pageants are a huge deal in my country, and seeing the crazy things that designers come up to make a fantasy dress that is culturally related but still wearable is really interesting and a true hit or miss.

I always find it funny that Venezuela always manages to put mirrors in girls' dresses all the time. haha
