  1. Mak Tumang ang designer. Actually, I expected more kasi Mak Tumang na yan eh. Buti na lang magaling rumampa si CJ.

    1. Yeah, parang tinamad si Mak dito. Di masyadong pinag-isipan yung shape at assets ni CJ.

    2. True galing umawra ni cj

  2. Mak Tumang is really a hit or miss no? Catriona was all hands on the deck kaya maayos ang kanya pati execution

    1. Yung yellow gown ni Imee Marcos did not fit her well. Nagcomment ako as such sa ig ni Mark, ayon dinelete nya comment ko 😆

    2. Yung Lava and Sinag were his best works for Queen Cat. Yung Adarna is ok. I like the Sampaguita jumpsuit for her homecoming too. Pero the turnover gowns for both Binibining Pilipinas and Miss Universe were both heavy-handed.

    3. 1:58, which yellow gown was that? Yung ginamit ba ni Imee sa SONA several years back? Well in all fairness kay Mak there baka binarat siya ni Imee sa presyo kaya ganun ang kinalabasan. Lol.

    4. oo nga medyo kulang sya sa boobies. kaya dapat ang gown e yung mag eenhance. kaso lalong na emphasize na gamay.

    5. Yes hit and miss talaga. Yung gown ni dianne medina hindi ko rin gusto pero gown ni ara mina maganda

    6. 9:59 wrong designer lol

  3. Honestly, for me maganda yung gown except for the Cape. Maybe, Hindi lang bagay sa kanya ang gown for her body and shape like if it was worn by Pia or Catriona it would've been nice

    1. Yun na nga eh. The designer should have known na di bagay kay CJ

      Delete
    2. Oh eh hindi naman pala bagay bat ipinilit? Gumawa dapat ng gown hindi dahil gusto ng designer kundi dahil yon ang bagay sa candidate natin.

      Delete
    3. exactly. hindi naman nya sinabing chaka ang gown. ang concern nya ay dahil hindi bagay ang design ng gown sa body shape ni CJ.

    4. As a designer hindi mo dapat isisi sa client mo. Pag sinukatan mo client alam mo kung ano flaws na kelangan itago at assets na dapat iaccentuate. Once pa lang ako nakapagpatahi. Bridal gown na pinagawa ko supposedly tube pero tinago nya maitim kong armpit pero inaccentuate nya waist ko na maliit at nilagyan pads dahil flat chested ako. Ayun maganda kinalabasan.

      Delete
    5. Dahil sa cape at pag awra kaya sya napansin baka cape pa nga nag papanalo sa kanya.

      Delete
    6. 10:03 baks, buti nlng anonymous ka. Or else e stalk ko yung wedding photos mo at e check kung gaano kaitim yung armpit, haha. Kaloka, shi-nare mo talaga dito 😂

      Delete
    7. 3:39 syempre, 10:03 is trying to prove a point, by using her own experience as example. Nothing wrong sa pagshare nya

      Delete
    8. Natural na lang talaga sa Pinay ang maitim ang Kili Kili. Kaya ako give up na ako sa mga legit na derma. I'm not going to give, names. Haha. Dahil hindi maisolve ang leki leki ko, nagpa liit na lang ako ng ilong. - not 10:03. Haha.

  4. Tama naman observations nya

  5. Nagmukhang flat? But she is kinda flat but nadala naman nya at awra kung awra with the gown.

    1. When though well, designers can place focus on the strong assets. Ito, hindi masyadong pinag-isipan.

      Delete
    2. yes she is flat kaya nga dapat yung design ay may illusion na hindi sya flat. kaso lalong na obvious na flat sya.

      Delete
    3. Kaya nga ni recommend nya nilagyan sana ng seamless pads

      Delete
  6. Tama nagmukhang flat chested talaga

  7. When I haven’t seen the photos, I was thinking who is this bida bida? But when I checked the photos. Well you’re damn right.

  8. To add, hindi classy tignan ung gown nagmukhang cheap

  9. Hindi lang talaga magaling magdala si CJ isisi nyo pa sa designer!!!!

    1. Magaling naman magdala si CJ. Medyo off yung proportions ng gown, but I don't think it's that bad compared to the other gowns sa Top 10.

    2. 1:57 I watched the pageant last night and nadisappoint din ako sa gown. Hindi pang-beauty pageant, ang tamlay ng gown. Buti na lang nadala ni CJ. Kung paano nya nirampa yung gown esp. yung execution nya sa cape, nabawi nya kahit hindi maganda yung gown. So huwag mo isisi kay CJ. Hindi dahil Mak Tumang yan, maganda na. Nakita mo ba yung prelims at finals gowns ni Ahtisa sa Ms. Cosmo? Matuto sana tayo tumanggap ng criticism and observation for improvement. Yung kay Catriona na lava gown kaya siguro maganda kasi tutok talaga si Cat na kung ano yung vision nya is yun yung lalabas sa gown.

    3. Besh, she CARRIED that meh dress the best she could. Ipasuot mo yan sa iba, parang binili lang sa SM.

  10. Compared sa gowns ng top 5, this is decent. Chaka ng mga gowns nila.

    1. Very true. Ang tacky kaya nung mga gowns nung other 4.

      Delete
    2. This is Miss Grand, kaya may element of theatrics that work with this pageant. Lahat ng top 4 other than CJ may pagka campy and dramatic ang dress, because this is the pageant brand that allows/emphasizes it. Nagmukha si CJ na plain / assistant.

  11. Nagandahan naman ako except sa chest…. Mejo off nga. Pero inabit naman hanggang top 2. Mahirap talaga matalo ang candidates from India. #truth

  12. panget yun gown. parang rtw lang

    ReplyDelete
  13. Yang suot na ni CJ mukhang okay naman ang kinalabasan

    ReplyDelete
  14. Sana. Gold with emerald green ang gown. Silver eh second place lang.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Maybe he was disappointed CJ didnt win.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Nagmukha nga syang kandila walang shape

    ReplyDelete
  17. Well I agree with him
    She looks bland bec of that gown

    ReplyDelete
  18. My point nmn tlga. Nagmukhang flat ang chest nia pti un body prang pantay

  19. Leo Almodal na yan even before sumikat yan si Mak Tumang. Designer to the artistas and pageant queens.

    1. Di din naman maganda aesthetics ng gowns ni Almodal. Same cut at mabigat tignan.

  20. Maganda naman yung gawan nung nasa manequin. Btw, kala ko si Hipon yung nasa picture sa taas.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Nawala yung curve ng balakang ni CJ dahil sa skintone na tela.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I had a gown made by Mak Tumang , 100k . Mukhang 5k lang sa SM lol never again. Ang budol lol

    ReplyDelete
  23. Leo's gowns are always beaded to the point na mukhang mabigat sa paningin. So before nya criticize si Tumang, perhaps tumingin muna sya sa gowns nya na almost same lang naman halos ang template?

    1. Well maybe that's his trademark? Just like michael cinco's gowns. Alam mong sya may gawa coz merong in common lahat ang gows

  24. I'm honestly puzzled. Lahat ng elements nung dress in theory magwowork to make someone appear more hourglass shaped, but for some reason hindi nagtranslate in real life.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. It's the proportions. Reshaping the sides a bit and bringing that line where the top and skirt meet (including the waist band) up a couple of inches or so would do wonders. I'm guesing there wasn't really enough time to polish these details with the necessary number of fitting sessions kasi nga ilang araw din lang ang preps ni CJ for the pageant. It was still a huge effort on Mak's side so sana maisip din ng bashers niya yan.

  25. Bakit ako nagagandahan? Kanya kanya lang yan ng type.

  26. maganda yung gown di lang bagay sa body type nya

  27. Maganda naman ang gown mejo hindi lang maganda sa breast part pero pangbpageant pa din. Hindinkatulad nung isang may pa homage homage pa hindi naman umabot sa uop 5 at jindi namna pang pageant ang gown

    ReplyDelete
  28. All points are valid. You gotta give it to CJ, she worked that lackluster dress. A good designer designs around the wearer. Hindi yung sasabihin na hindi magaling magdala ang nagsusuot. Kaya nga pumunta sa designer to get something made to enhance the person and make them feel the most beautiful.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Maganda naman yun gown kaso bakit ganon kapag nakasuot na, flat na flat nga ang dating. Di lang masyado bumagay and yes she looked flat talaga and the belt looked out of place, parang nahati ang katawan nya and the length maikli nga.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Wait lang ano ba tlg pageant o gown contest

    ReplyDelete
  31. Maganda yung gown but hindi flattering kay CJ. Parang hindi made for her.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Daming ganyan sa 168

    ReplyDelete
  33. there’s nothing wrong with the gown tbh. very simple yet elegant. Bagay sa kanya. Sakto lang yan since the pageant is know for theatrics, and over the top pasarelas. Ung mga designs kasi nung LA (nagcomment na designer ) ay mejo OA tbh, mejo ginagaya si Michael Cinco.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I agree with Leo Almodal. In reality, the gown didn’t look good on her. And saan nga ba nanggaling yung rose gold na belt? Haha

    1. Contrast po tawag dyan. May beads din po kasing nakalagay na halos kakulay na din ng belt.

  35. It wasn’t a horrible.
    The gown was just average, just like the designer.
    Good thing she carried it well.

  36. Naging makapal na suspenders sa sobrang flat ng chest, hindi porket may name designer hindi ka magbibigay ng input. Sinukat mo naman yan.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Usually pahiram lang naman mga damit na yan sa constestants. Kung hindi naturally flat at may curves ang mag susuot ng damit na yan, iba ang kalalabasan so do not blame the designer, blame the stylist kasi yan ang pinasuot nya kay Cj kaya hindi nabigyan ng magandang justice ang damit ni Mak. Sa opinion ko not bad naman, nadala naman ng maayos ni Cj masyado lang feeling itong si Almodal na may mga matronic designs din naman sya na chaka.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Before mag kuda, have a winning gown first. 😔

    ReplyDelete
  39. Wag na maglokohan. Panget yung gown from Mak Tumang, walang dating, plain, hindi bagay sa Miss Grand. Ung mga ibang finalist, gowns nila may element of camp, pizazz, gimmick kase nga, Miss Grand to eh. Itabi mo si CJ kay Miss India mukha talaga syang runner up. Call the spade a spade, puro gaslight. Panget yung gown ni CJ.

    ReplyDelete
  40. another proof na hit and miss si Mak, yung kay Cat pa lang pak na pak ung lava gown but the orange prelim gown was not all that, sablay in many ways. andame pa niyang funny designs like yung suot ni Cat sa BBP homecoming in Araneta na waling waling nakakaloka un haha

    1. Yung blue gown din ni Cat when she relinquished her ctown sa Miss Universe. Kung anong kinahaba ng kuwento yun din ang bigat nung gown. Lol.

    2. yes, at may structure issue din yang gown na yan kasi nude invisible sa taas tapos ung lower half punong puno ng exena, will make you think what's holding the top up, haha nakakaloka si mak

  41. Bakit yung gown last year ng Ms U philippines hindi pinintasan eh mas kapintaspintas yon. Itim, sarado, nakakatako tinago lahat ng kurba. Yun ang kapintas pintas . So i dont believe this hanash

    ReplyDelete
  42. Maganda itong gown. But it's too tame for Miss Grand International na need na all-out drag queen ang mga contestants.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Maganda naman yung gown sa mannequin kaso lang hindi maganda ang fit kay CJ. Sana na-adjust nga naman to highlight her assets, lalo na sa boobs part, flat na nga lalo pa na-emphasize na flat.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Ito namang si Almodal kung makacomment eh parang napaka fashion forward ng mga designs niya na puro tadtad lang ng embellishments and crystals 😶

    ReplyDelete

    1. Was about to say the same thing. Nothing innovative. Tadtarin mo lang ng crystal, ganern. May kaibigan ako na wedding gown nya gawa ni Almodal. Sorry po, reminded me of a crystal chandelier.

    2. yeah mejo ginagaya nya style ni Michael Cinco tbh. dinadaan sa malalaking skirts with crystals and embellishments.

  45. Bakit wala na yung poetic long definition and inspiration ng gown as caption? Hehe

  46. Good call s mga designers, fashion police as it’s finest. Merong mabango next time.

  47. Watched the clip of her rampa. To be fair, the gown really looks unflattering on her, nadaan sa pagproject ni CJ. Commenter's post has basis and is not merely bashing for bashing's sake.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Overall the gown is meh. Even the gown he made for Ahtisa for Miss Cosmo.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Napaka flat niya sa gown, di nacomplete ang hubog ng katawan nya

    ReplyDelete
  50. The thing is CJ had less than a week to prepare after being crowned. Wala na din sigurong time to discuss what she wanted (like that of Catriona). Baka di na nga naifit tong gown, sinend na lang measurements.. Bakit nga ba ang tutok ng national pageant?

    ReplyDelete
  51. It is obvious that the gown was not made for CJ. Gawa na yung gown in the first place. That is why the proportions were off. Pinilit, kaya sablay. Ang may mali, eh yung team behind her. They should not have chosen this for her to wear.

    ReplyDelete
  52. I would actually say Cat's gowns at Miss U were horrible. She just made it look good. I didn't really like it.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Unpopular Opinion, sobrang nagandahan ako sa gown. It fit her well and nagmukha nga sya matangkad for me. Although tama si Leo Almodal na nagmukha syang pandak nung katabi na nya yung ibang candidates, pero di naman dahil sa gown kungdi dahil sobrang tangkad nung mga katabi nya. Brazil is 6'2 yata, while France is 5'11" kahit anong gown isuot mo dun magmumukha ka pa ring pandak.
