WEAVER OF HOPE
Miss World Philippines 2021, Steffi Rose Aberasturiโs National Costume had a bit of a surprise effect. By holding the edges with its red color, it depicts the colors of Sto. Nino and when dropped turns into this beautiful golden piece designed by Malayka Yamas.
The designer also stated that as an advocate for empowering small businesses, the costume pays homage to a traditional Cebuano livelihood thatโs been more profound during the pandemic- Rattan weaving.
VESSEL OF FAITH
Tracy Maureen Perez (Miss World Philippines 2021), the national costume was inspired by the Cebuanosโ strong devotion to Sr. Sto. รino. It highlights the arrival of Ferdinand Magellan to the shores of Cebu and our ancestor’s introduction to the Christian Faith.
