The “national costume” Miss Thailand Universe “Pook Look” Fonthip Watcharatrakul will be wearing at the Miss Universe pageant 2010 this coming August at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. You like? I like.
The costume is titled “Siam Iyara”, it was designed by Phalin Aphinyakul as part of Ch7′s Annual Miss Thailand Universe National Costume Design competition. The inspiration was derived from a painting and Thai elephants, the symbolic animal of Thailand. For his efforts, Phalin received 20,000 baht ($621 USD).
Miss Thailand Universe contestant Pook Look loves the dress.
“When I saw it, I thought it was very beautiful. I liked it a lot. The concept for the outfit is ‘Siam Iyara (Thai Elephants)’, it was inspired by Thai elephants. It was easy to wear.”
The sketch was beautifully done.

The competition-some of these designs were resubmitted from last year, I remember them.
There were hundreds of entries…
In the end they chose this sketch.
Last Year, Thailand placed 3rd in the “National Costume” category, I hope they win this year.
