For the past years, we have witnessed how Alfredo Barazza, the official designer for Miss Philippines delegates in Miss Universe, designed mediocre and recycled gowns for our candidates, despite the fact that many world-class Filipino designers, like. Micheal Cinco and. Francis Libiran, would like to design their gowns if only given the chance by BBP President, Mrs. Stella Araneta. This year, we would like to make a change. The Filipino pageant fanatics and supporters would like to let these Filipino designers give out the best to our candidates, and let the world see how the Philippines can shine much in Miss Universe. Help us make a change! Let's support and give a chance to our own designers! Let your voice be heard!

I was looking at some gowns the other day and just thinking about how much raw talent we have right here in the country that is being completely overlooked. It feels like we are shouting into the void sometimes but keep the energy up because the world really needs to see what a Filipino designer can do when given a real chance instead of settling for the same old thing.

I really thought this might just fizzle out but seeing how many people want our own talented artists to shine on that stage is honestly overwhelming. It feels like the tide is finally turning and those gowns are going to look so much better when they actually represent our culture instead of just some catalog filler.

BPCI, please let our Filipino / world-renowned designers provide wardrobes and gowns to our queens, most specially our Miss Universe Philippines, Mary Jean Lastimosa. Michael Cinco, Cary Santiago, Francis Libiran, Oliver Tolentino, or Monique Lhuiller. Thank you!

I remember in an interview with Rajo Laurel that hes willing to lend some of his creations for our rep to wear during the Miss Universe finals, was it in 2010 or 2011, I'm not so sure. We have lots of potential designers here. A Filipina should wear a distinctively authentic Philippine costume made by a Filipino designer, and NOT by someone who set his rule to failus. No room for that!!!.

Those gowns from Barazza should not be worn anymore since they are outdated. I know it's all about the candidate, but it looks good if the gown looks great for her. Patronize our own designers.

Filipino designers should be the official designers for any Miss Universe Philippines representative.
