This dress was created especially for a Miss Universe Philippines contestant. It was inspired by the warm, soft light of the Philippine sun. The terno shape emphasizes its connection to Filipino culture.

The gold color gives the dress a more evening look. The wide sleeves keep the Filipiniana shape, while the long skirt and fitted bodice make it more formal.
