Catriona Gray has just been crowned Miss Universe 2018 in a red, lava-inspired Mak Tumang gown. But that's not the only thing that's special about it! Her fiery winning look actually means that our current roster of Filipina title holders haved held the title in outfits that compose the colors of the Philippine flag. See what we mean below!
In 1969, Gloria Diaz wore a yellow dress during her reign, while Margie Moran bagged the 1973 title in white. More than four decades later, Pia Wurtzbach was crowned Miss Universe 2015 wearing a blue piece by Albert Andrada. With yellow, white, and blue down, all we needed was a winner in red—that being Catriona in this year's competition.
How's that for a full-circle moment?
