Miss Universe is an event where women from all cultures come together. It highlights the diversity and importance for women. It’s a top known beauty pageant for women to showcase their beauty, talents, and diversity to the world.
Historical Background
Miss Universe started as a marketing strategy to promote Catalina Swimwear, formerly known as Pacific Knitting Mills. In 1979, Yolanda Betbeze had refused to model in a bathing suit, which led to the company starting its own separate pageant.
That pageant originated in Long Beach, California, and has been held in various places around the world. The 2024 year Miss Universe is scheduled to be held in Arena CMDX, Mexico City.
Attire
Typical attire consists of swimsuits, ball gowns, and national costumes. Everything opposite from what you call ‘casual’. Every dress for each lady is representative of their culture. Topped off with some heels, is what you call a complete Miss Universe outfit.
