Miss Universe 2013 Top 10 Fairy Tale Evening Gowns!

The most beautiful person in the universe has been proclaimed last November 9 in Moscow, Russia during the Miss Universe 2013 pageant. This year the honor went to Venezuela representative Gabriella Isler!

The anticipation was high that night and all the ladies really put their best foot forward. But of course there will always be some that will stand out and they made up the Top 10. Included in the Miss Universe 2013 Top 10 were:  Spain, Great Britain, India, Brazil, Philippines, USA, Ukraine, Ecuador, Venezuela, and 

Dominican Republic. 

 All these ten ladies were applauded for their beauty and their grace. The fact that they also wore fairy tale-like evening gowns emphasized it! Miss Great Britain Amy Willerton and  Miss USA Erin Brady wore eye-catching red gowns for the night. But between these two I like Miss Great Britain's sleeveless evening gown better because of its shiny lavender sequins and its spiky bodice detail. It's very classy and princess-like I have to say. Miss USA's evening gown's neckline bodice caps are too low and the deeply-plunging neckline is too daring for this kind of competition. 

Miss Universe Brazil Jakelyne Oliveira and Miss Universe India Manase Moghe both wore fantastic champagne-colored gowns! Their gowns are fit for a princess! Miss India's mermaid-cut gown featured gold sequins all over it while Miss Brazil's gown looked like it was made of fine lace. It also featured sequins, silver this time, and a thigh-high slit.

Miss Philippines Ariella Arida stood out literally like a ray of sunshine in her yellow satin gown. It had a figure-hugging bodice and a balloon skirt. It looked like a ball gown! Just fab! Miss Ecuador Constanza Baes opted for a mint green gown with a thigh-high slit and feather accents on the skirt. 

The rest of the four ladies in the Miss Universe 2013 Top 10 wore white. Of the four I love Miss Dominica Republic's gown most of all. It's very elegant with its sheer panel and disc-like accents. Even with the sheer panel running right in the middle of the gown, it doesn't look indecent. Miss Universe Ukraine Olga Storozhenko's gown comes next. I just love its froth quality, the way the skirt swirled when she walked. The pleated bodice looked awesome as did the neckline made up of crystals and beads. Miss Venezuela Gabriella Isler looked svelte in her figure-hugging shimmery silver gown. It featured long sleeves with cute cutouts extending to the skirt. It's very formal-looking. Last is Miss Spain Patricia Yurena Rodriguez whose gown had crystal-embedded bodice and a balloon tulle skirt. Though her gown is also like the ones in fairy tales the cut and overall design is very common.

Miss World 2013 Top 10 Finalists Gowns

I know the Miss World 2013 in Bali, Indonesia has been concluded some time ago but I think it is still relevant to bring to you the gowns worn by the Top 10 finalists! All their gowns looked fabulous so it's only right to highlight them. By the way, the Miss World 2013 Top 10 Finalists declared during that time were: Ghana, Jamaica, Spain, Indonesia, England, Nepal, France, Australia, Brazil and Philippines.

Blue was one of the biggest color of the night and many of the ladies included in the Miss World 2013 Top 10 were wearing the said color. Miss Ghana, Jamaica, Indonesia and England all wore blue gowns in varying cuts and silhouettes.  Miss Ghana's blue gown featured body-hugging bodice with lace overlay that has glittering sequins all over it. Miss Jamaica went all out on ruffles! The voluminous skirt of her light blue gown reminds me of a tail of a peacock. Miss Indonesia went for a sleeveless design. Her gown featured a pattern that is typical of the traditional clothing in her country.Miss England's royal blue gown also had a voluminous skirt that looked kind of heavy. It looked great on her.

Miss Brazil and Miss Spain both opted for resplendent white gowns. Miss Brazil's curves were in full show since the gown was body-hugging. The beadwork on the bodice looked fantastic too. However, the tulle train made it look like she was headed for the altar. Miss Spain looked like she was on her debut and not a beauty pageant. Miss France's mermaid-cut gown in soft pink featured sequins all over the bodice down to the skirt. It looked fantastic on her.

Miss Nepal was bold in red. except for the off-shoulder design, the gown's really quite simple. Miss Australia opted for volume too. Her purple skirt below a nude and sequin-embellished bodice. She should have worn her hair in an updo to get the full effect of the gown. Miss Philippines really stood out in her soft pink mermaid-cut gown! She positively sparkled due to the sequins that embellished her gown. With her hair in an updo you can really appreciate the cut and design of her outfit more.

Miss Universe Top 10 Fab Evening Gowns!

I know it's kind of late but until now I'm still amazed by the evening gowns worn by the Top 10 Miss Universe candidates during the Miss Universe Pageant held last December 2012. The evening gowns were fantastic and the fact that all the Top 10 candidates have slim and proportioned bodies made them look even more wonderful!

The candidates included in the Miss Universe Top 10 were Mexico, Philippines, Australia, Brazil, Russia, Venezuela, France, Hungary, USA and South Africa.

Miss Mexico's one-shoulder evening gown was a bold red color featuring a thigh-high slit. Miss U.S.A. is the other contestant who opted for a red gown. But hers was a voluminous one. It looked like she was going to a ball. Miss Philippines donned a strapless baby blue gown  featuring a pleated skirt. It had some silver embellishment on the bodice and neckline.

Miss Australia, Miss France and Miss Hungary all opted for off-white gowns. Miss Hungary's had a ruffled skirt with a slit while Miss Australia's had a long train. Miss France's gown must have taken a long time to make because of the sequins adorning the bodice and down the skirt.

Miss South Africa and Miss Brazil both wore gold gowns with fabulous bead work.Miss Russia opted for a gown with royal blue skirt and a top embellished with blue gems. Her skirt also features pleats much like the ones in Miss Philippines' gown. Miss Venezuela chose a relaxing green color for her gown. You can really see the fine detail on the neckline, waist and skirt. She looked fantabulous! All of them did!
