Philippines national costume surfaces
At first, I thought that it was a celebration of multicolor pubes. Tweet buddy HeyJay said it looked like cotton candy vomit.
So let's just take this with a grain of salt and pretend this is a political statement: it's the our-President-may-be-vomit-but-let's-be-happy-as-a-rainbow national costume.

Because seriously, never in history did I encounter colorful balls of yarddotting taking over the saya as part of the Filipina identity. Ever.

They could have just borrowed Imelda's Terno collection...lol
Haha, in fairness.
I really don't understand why they had to make our beautiful terno tacky and cheap.
don't they have a budget for this? ay-ay-ay! next time, can you just volunteer na lang and do our candidate's costume. kairita na eh.
this is a bit mean but our candidate looks trannylicious, from the makeup to the costume. actually, mas cute pa yung ibang "gurls" na sumasali sa beaucon.
di na nga kailangan ng budget eh. for sure, filipino designers would be happy to loan from their collection.
ay, may mukha pala sya. di ko napansin, haha.
NGGIII grabe... bulag ba mga taong ito???
Baka joke yan :-D
stella araneta must have persuaded the boyoyong clowns that donating their hair to this terno would be a worthy sacrifice for the good of the filipino nation.
Juice ko Lord. Yarn ba yan? akala ko yung mga maninipis na multicolored plastic sa palengke na nilalagyan ng binili mong sitaw at turon na pinagsamasama at dinikit sa palda niya.
Hahaha, okray!!!
Miss ko tuloy yung time na maganda costume natin:
