  1. Buti na lang maganda si Ara at maganda magdala. Napaka plain naman ng gown, tas wala din sya jewelry man lang.

  4. Hate! Stella araneta needs to go. Siya ang panira sa hope ng mga pinay like Arida na mapanalunan ang elusive Ms Universe crown. Sinayang ang momentum ng continuous victory in major bauty pageants

    1. You're right. She should have worn a gown that will showcase the form and shape of her body (just like Megan Young, who chose her own gown that will showcase her hard earned bodyshape). No matter how graceful you carry your gown if the gown doesnt fits you well, then its nothing. It is evident by her score in the evening gown competition. I think what contributed to the winning of Ms. Megan Young in the Miss World competition was her evening gown. She was stunning and gorgeous in that Francis Libiran creation all throughout the competition. I dunno why Madame Stella Marquez de Araneta choose a Colombian designer when there are plenty of rising Filipino designers who could create gowns better than Alfredo Barrazza. What a shame and pity to the Filipino ingenuity!

  7. Like. We must support her all the way. That is what Filipino should do. IInstead of criticising one of your own. Spread the good vibes

    1. pro bakla may eyes nman kami to see if chakaness ang dress. we support her but we just can see that her gowns are really chaka.

      Delete
    2. Yan ang problema sa atin e. puro magaganda lang gusto marinig. Not because people are giving not-so-goo comments e hindi na nila sinusuportahan si Ara. Ever heard of constructive criticisms? Sheesh. Kaya di nagiimprove ang bansa kasi sobrang butthurt natin! Kapag may nasabi na di pabor, we take it personally instead of professionally and doing something to turn it around. I love Ara and I hope she wins. Pero ang chaka ng gown na to!

      Delete
    3. pre-pageant pa lang naman ito.is this what she will be wearing during the finals?

      Delete
    4. Critiquing is different from criticizing, understand that. Its all about being objective so we can make intelligent judgement. Wag maging babaw and defensive.

      Delete
    5. Absolutely right!

  8. the dress is not flattering for her. regardless, she's still beautiful in her own way.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Too simple, Ara deserves a better gown than this. Madam Auring este Madame Estella is just using Ara to showcase her frustration (talent kuno) in designing clothes. Ang daming magagaling na pinoy designers, ang ganda pa naman ni Ara. Pang commercial pa ng cream silk ang buhok :D

    Replies
    1. Oo nga. I agree with you. Sayang yung pinaghirapan ni Ara to get into that shape. Comparing her scores in the Swimsuit and Evening Gown, one can tell that her gown was a great pull down to her total score. She should have worn a gown that will showcase her hard earned body shape. The color doesnt matter, its just the cut and style of the gown that could have catch the attention of the judges.

  10. I like how the designer choose the color. It represent the new administration of the Philippines "Yellow"

  11. That side bun needs to go!!!!!!!!!! I wasn't really into the gown, but when I saw pictures of her during the rehearsal with her hair down, I did like the effect. Tapos during the competition itself, bakit ginanun yung hair nya? And we need new handlers sa BPCI.

    Hopefully makapasok pa din siya sa top 16, she did well naman sa swimsuit.

  16. si stella ang nagdesign ng sapphire gown ni ara during the pictorial at say run ang nag design ng national costume. Look like say din ang nag design ng evening gown. Tipid much? Tuwang-tuwa na ang lahat na nakawala na tayo kay barazza gun papa sasambutin lang ni stella? Syempre young mga pine present nils dun kahit sabihin ang walang bearing ang mga admit, meron gun sa mata ng judges. Kung plain jane lagi pano ka max mapapansin? At first anlakas ng Philippines ngayon bumaba ang popularity rating nya dahil sa mga pinapasuot s akanya nadismaya mga tao!

    3. We are not bashers of Ariella Arida, we support her kaya nga asar na asar kami sa pinasuot sa kanya coz she does not deserve to were such a "trash"! she deserves something much much as in MAJOR MAJOR na gown :) kasi kung tutuusin talagang ang laki ng edge nya sa competition, binaboy lang ni Madam Araneta dahil sa kawalan nya ng tiwala sa mga mas may talent naman nating designers dito sa pinas! Yung hitsura na lang parang telang pang uniform ng mga empleyado ng gobyerno.. Para pang inalmirol, kaya sana i-ban ang gawgaw next Ms. U please :P, panahon pa yan ng mga ninuno natin, my goodness! Sayang yung chance ni Ms Ariella, totoo naman, napaka chaka ng gown..

  23. marami namang inspired imitator designer sa pinas, kung nagbabasa lang ng fp si madam araneta, makakakuha siya ng idea sino patatahiin nia ng gown. eh yun pinasuot niya, mabibili ang style na yan sa baclaran ng murang mura. at kung very insistent talaga siya sa yellow gown, humiram na lang sana siya kay kris aquino at pinasikipan niya. mas maganda pa ang yellow gowns ni kristeta!

  24. The gown is not fab.. Parang sa patahian sa kanto lang ginawa..

  39. Gosh anu bang gown parang hndi pang ms. U!! My goodness

    ReplyDelete
  40. I say gown is not that flattering but the way Ara carried it makes it elegant.I was really rooting for gold this time but the yellow color choice seems ok for me, it makes her tan complexion shine and truly made her unique in her own way. Its just that the fabric looks stiff that make the gown look cheap. The gown has no "finese factor". Long black hairstyle looks a lot better you can never go wrong with that, no need of accessory - just her long black hair will make her overall presence regal onstage.

  41. Dislike. Buti keri lang ni girl kase ganda katawan nya. But the gown is like errr, anyare?

    there are a lot of talented designers here.hindi ba sila humingi ng tulong? i bet they'll be glad to help. parang ang cheap ng tela. it doesnt have that wow factor

  50. I don't know but I find the gown very beautiful for Ara. Her morena skin stood out with that yellow gown. Mas lumabas ang gandang Filipina sa sinuot nya. Just as long as she's comfortable wearing it then there's no reason to lose hope. Ariella is doing a great job people so stop being so bitter. :)

  85. Dislike the gown. While it is ugly it did put Ariella Arida notches higher. Lumutang ang poise nya and confidence. The color suits her. This is what we would like for the judges to notice and take note of, the inner beauty, the confidence, feeling maganda kahit chaka and pina-suot. Dahil dito stand out sya among the others.

  86. Her walk is not as graceful as megan's/venus'. Malaki pa naman ang bearing nun lalo na sa evening gown. Good luck to her.

  87. i think the gown accentuates her beauty... naguumapaw ang kanyang pagka morena at ganda sa gown. tama lang na di gaanong grandyoso... as long as it flaunts her beauty.

  90. hanu ba yan di man lang naplancha gusot gusot tuloy ang gown

    ReplyDelete
  91. The color shows off her skin color well. Pero pangit yung design. Mas maganda para sa akin pag nakalugay kaysa yung updo na parang sobrang sikip ng pagkakatali, di komportable tingnan. Kumbaga mas relaxed ang look pag nakalugay. Tsaka pwede bang i-match yung kulay ng foundation sa balat? Yung tipong kahit flash photography eh walang white cast? Kadiri kasi yung floating face.

  92. The gown's too plain.pang prom or pang bridesmaid...

  94. Maganda kaya. Parang kay miss universe 2009

    ReplyDelete
  95. I don't like the gown. Not flattering. Reminder, Miss Universe is not all about the question and answer portion. It's how you present yourself and of course, kasama na dun ung ganda ng gown. magaling ka nga magpresent at rumampa eh pano na kung panget ung gown mo? DI talaga maganda... bkit nyo ba pinagpipilitan na ok sya... hehehe

    ReplyDelete
  96. Dapat pinoy gumagawa ng gown para sa lahat ng delegates natin. Like yung kay Megan. Panalo talaga yun. Pinoy lang ang mas nakakaalam pano bihisan ng mahusay ang pinoy. Yun ang ikinabuti ng pagbukod ng Ms. World PH sa Binibini. Maganda talaga kapag nakikipag usap ang designer sa magsusuot. :) dami nating malulupit na designer na for sure very willing to help. Buti na lang talaga maganda si Ara. Ok lang sana yung gown mula sa taas, kaso yung bandang baba sobrang plain. Parang mantel sa mesa. Tapos kitang kita pa yung folds. Hehehe.
