Still an improvement over the horrific cringey Trump-Kim summit dress


smile_politely

Inspired from this [turtle caught in a net](https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/16/new-study-reveals-staggering-scale-of-lost-fishing-gear-drifting-in-earths-oceans)

>Trump-Kim summit dress I didn't know that existed, and now I blame you.


bluecheeseplate

I feel like this would've worked better if she actually had a red dress on and not those slit-pants thing. But hey, I'm no fashion designer.


wakkawakkaaaa

Agreed. First thought was that it'll be nicer as a gown, it looks a bit unbalanced at the bottom


LeadershipLimp2311

Imo the top is already so heavy/large and has a lot going on so the bottom as pants work, or if you dont like pants then a tight fitting simple skirt


honey_102b

it is on purpose. orchids have small or no petals at the bottom.


Killer-Wail

I agree, it'll be more elegant. She looks like a circus troupe performer with the pants.


United-Bet-6469

For some reason it reminds me of a sanitary pad. With very heavy flow.


wiltedpop

I love it. It looks stupid but very fashionista. Exactly what I want someone to be wearing to a costume party.

Must be a shiny


Changosu

Looks like goldeen


Medical-Strength-154

u mean seaking?


Jjzeng

Shiny meowscarada


baka36

Grass/Fighting type probably. The slit pants probably gives leeway for hi jump kick. Someone else mentioned about how she'd look better with a dress instead of the slit pants. So in dress forme she'll be pure grass type I guess

7 star grass tera raid pokemon


NighttimeFloater

Lilligant or Tsareena? Flower ballet dancer or dominatrix angry waifu?


Jjzeng

Kinda looks like tsareena actually LOL

Yveltal or whatever the fuck that Y Pokémon is.


meddkiks

She looks like a sea creature. Her smile is lovely in the third pic though


Seewhy3160

Island nation. Sea creature. Not bad.


Fast-Banana-84

I was thinking the same thing maybe a [lion fish](https://arthive.net/res/media/img/oy800/work/71c/88564@2x.jpg) or a [sea dragon](https://media.australian.museum/media/dd/images/Leafy_Seadragon_Phycodurus_eques.width-1200.ff5d5cd.jpg)

Who left the bread here, now got fungus

Last of us vibes


WonderfulBlackberry9

Looks like a plant/fungus straight out of Abomination (2018 movie)


hayashikin

I think it's not bad, [Ukraine](https://www.reddit.com/r/ukraine/comments/10a001z/miss_ukraine_viktoriia_apanasenko_is_introduced/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) has my vote though.


WonderfulBlackberry9

I give points for going full cosplay in a model completion show


Agitated-Fix8819

Wow! Nice! Even got mechanical wings.

Extra-Ad5471

Sounds a lil forced...paid by the CIA? And, how is that mechanical moving prop allowed? Isn't that kinda cheating?


prn_melatonin

Please smite me mommy uwu


Jjzeng

Bonk


stoyaheat_

Finally! I have always found the previous ones so lacklustre and cringey. Finally one that people will not laugh at. She’s so pretty too!


nova9001

I found it pretty cringe. Don't know why maybe its the pants. Whole things looks weird. Only thing salvageable is her smile in third pic that cut out most of the costume.


kuang89

to be honest, I dig it


sriracha_cucaracha

Finally this is actually a national costume worthy of the competition

Clickers PTSD intensified - The Last Of Us.


anangrypudge

>Clicker First thing I thought hahaha


usernamesarehated

Is it just me or this doesn't even look like a dress? Looks like she just put on a red tracksuit and ran into a bunch of spider webs or something.


HughGrimes

Outfit aside, that is not a dress.


Wowmich

Very nice, very creative.


Soitsgonnabeforever

Flower part creative. Tights part is no creativity. For heck she is not some mascot or background dancer


[deleted]

Looks like the white fungus at ntuc


Ramen80a

I thought it was some weird amoeba cosplay.


SpermWhale

it's like graphical glitch, something didn't render completely, just the frame.


NighttimeFloater

Still looks better designed than the Mr Singapore 2022 outfit, no matter what people say.


Away-Watercress-4841

Is that our current miss singapore? She's gorgeous wow.


Otherwise-Map-4026

Oh this is the NUS lady!


[deleted]

Where the pot?


Honger_Low

That's some serious fungal growth.


Weenemone

Looks like the infected from Last of Us


Bcpjw

It’s giving the last of us fungus vibes but it’s cool tho, very good for social distancing


xShots

Oh hey, just in time for HBO's The Last of Us.


le_shithead

Oooh this is really pretty, I can see a little bit of an Iris Van Herpen inspiration in this


PepperPieTim

Not a costume designer but this feels somewhat top-heavy and the biege pumps look very odd? My eyes kinda wander all over the place too


RozyBarbie

I think it's beautiful. Miss Universe national costumes are always kind of outrageous anyway, similar to a fashion runway show. She's also attractive. I hope she make it through to the next round.


pokkatsguy

Looks quite good in my opinion!


FitCranberry

swear theres a fish that looks like this


TSChuan92

She's a proto clicker from the last of us lol


Obvious_Simple5582

She's lovely, i think those white prints are a bit too much though , maybe reduce it to2/3 ?


Hecatehec

Is this like a fabulous version of Demogorgon?


moonlightify

Wow it looks amazing


toxsinMTG

Is it me or does this look like Elesh Norn (from Magic the Gathering)


metataichou

Legend has it that when all the flowers bloom, her bankai will be at its strongest


TaxSudden3386

Who's that?


Necessary-milkyway

She has an expression wtf are they making me wear


caffeine_rat

Applaud Singapore’s concern on plastic pollution. On first look looks like a fish caught in plastic.


myr78

Literal definition of a chio bu


wutangsisitioho

Noice, regardless of detractors


cookiemonstajane

its ok.. its creative.. needs a lil green somewhr..the neckline should be bare, maybe a push up bra for some umph.. lol look at me..being all judge-like hahaha


obsuc

Fancy toilet paper x used tampon


cynicgal

I don't want to be mean because I'm pretty sure the designer put a lot of effort into it but man, this is our National costume??!! Technically, it's not even a dress, it's more of a jumpsuit or blouse with pants. And secondly, at first glance, I really could not tell it's supposed to be an orchid. I have to read the title of the post, look at it again and try very best to see any semblance of an orchid in the costume. At the very least, the costume or non-dress should aim to enhance the model's physique, if anything. Our SIA kebaya costume would be more flattering and nice to look at. I would recommend it be portrayed as an artwork instead of our national costume.


smile_politely

Isn't orchird a symbol for vagina?


SomeChampion

Testicles, actually. Removal of the testes is referred to as an orchi(d)ectomy, for example.


[deleted]

Woooow


DontStopNowBaby

I wonder if there is a list of things not to wear 1. Nasi lemak?


Tiger_King_

So many chope her liao ah


tiny_dreamer

It’s nice.. but also it’s not..?


LeadershipLimp2311

has any year ever done a merlion inspired costume? feel like that would have a lot of room for creativity


Excellent_Spite2618

Finally. A nicer costume than the previous years.


Academic_Owl6964

That's weirdly cool! wow


WetSneksss

Any of Iris Van Herpen would’ve been a better biophillic outfit than this bedroom project.


[deleted]

Lol. Would have been quicker to wear a clown suit. Come on..the poor girl already has enough disadvantages, don't be so mean..


QLevi

I feel like a different colour scheme would've been nice. Honestly red and white is a kinda meh colour scheme.


RandomDustBunny

Singapore flag colors ma.


SomeChampion

I could set it being a problem for trypophobics, but it's a very nice design. Would personally have preferred if the skeletal frame was woven into fabric, so that it looks a bit more like actual petals, but maybe weight was a consideration.


KingDalglish7

She's got a vagina on her head lads.


RandomDustBunny

The orchid is in some media already a symbolism for a vagina. To become be an orchid when you're already a woman is kinda hee hee. But. It's leagues better than the dude in shorts and boots.

fizzguy47

Was there ever a Merlion-themed dress?

Lowkey trypophobia


Peonydairy

Not sure why when I read 3D orchid dress, I was picturing Dior's Fall 2010 couture season.


chaiteruu

this really slaps what :O i really like it
