24-year-old Catriona Gray has made all the Filipinos around the world very proud, as not only was she crowned Miss Universe, she handled herself very gracefully and was exuding confidence throughout the whole competition. Her fashion week-worthy runway walk in a fiery volcano dress, by Filipino designer Mak Tumang, caught the attention of many, including the world famous supermodel and America\u2019s Next Top Model host, Tyra Banks<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She got us captivated ever since we saw her walk the runway on the Sherri Hill Spring 2019 show on NYFW.<\/a> To be included in such a prestigious event, was a big deal for a young Filipino model, and aspiring Miss Universe. And the designer that helped launching Kendall Jenner\u2019s modeling career, once again proved that she has a knack for pinpointing girls just before they make their big break in beauty and fashion industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
