Apparently there was quite a disturbance about Miss Japan (Emiri Miyasaka ) this year. The picture above shows what she was suppose to be wearing as her "National Costume" in the competition.Originally the dress was said to be longer when it was first shown on a cat walk, but the designer and director of the Miss Universe Organization, Ines Ligron, decided to make it shorter at the last minute.
Miss Miyasaka is now said to be wearing something less revealing to the Miss Universe competition but do you think all this controversy has hurt her chances to win?
Miss Ligron has trained Japans contestants for over a decade and I'm guessing out of anger she wrote the following on her blog:
"The conservative and fashion dinosaurs are criticizing her costume, meanwhile the fashionistas love it. I care only about the movers and shakers in the fashion industry."
She was being criticized a lot about how the outfit was sleazy and slutty I mean, its a black leather kimono and hot pink garters! In my opinion I'm glad they made her change it. If she was parading down the Harajuku streets I would have no problem with her outfit but she should not be showing her hot pink underwear for the national outfit. I just feel its a lack of respect for her country.
Surely the fashion movers and shakers can understand that? That's just my opinion I'm know not everyone agrees, What do you guys think?
Traditional Kimonos
I'm more than positive these have plenty of modern fashion potential without showing the world your undies.
