MISS Universe Philippines Michelle Dee stunned the audience with her walk and outfit at the recently concluded preliminary round of the Miss Universe pageant last Nov. 16 in El Salvador. She proudly showed off her toned physique in the swimsuit competition which made her trend on X (formerly Twitter).
Michelle was wearing a Mark Bumgarner cut-out gown which was bedecked with 30,000 Swarovski crystals.
Apart from her spectacular performance, Michelle was part of the 10 ladies in the Miss Universe pageant who became a silver finalist for The Voice For Change advocacy video competition.
Michelle was joined by candidates from Angola, Brazil, Chile, Lebanon, Puerto Rico, Singapore, South Africa, Ukraine, and Zimbabwe on the list. Three gold winners will be announced during the Miss Universe coronation night which is happening on Nov. 18 (US time).
Meanwhile, netizens praised the beauty queen for her impeccable performance during the preliminary round of Miss Universe. Some commented how she has continuously improved her skills over such a short amount of time.
āIn a sea of outdated evening gowns, Michelle Dee’s edgy but super classy Mark Bumgarner masterpiece is a standout…reminds me of the Crazy Rich Asians movie…love it,ā a netizen praised Michelleās choice of gown.
āAng linis at maaliwalas. She’s enjoying every moment, raise our flag,ā another netizen added.
Aside from her walk and stunning outfits, the 28-year-old beauty queen recently trended on social media as she introduced the country as āFilipinasā instead of the usual āPhilippinesā during opening presentation.
