Miss Ý Nhi caused a lot of controversy because of her outfit that was considered offensive when she appeared at a fashion event.
Miss Ý Nhi recently attended a fashion show in Ho Chi Minh City. This was also the beauty's comeback after a period of studying abroad in Australia.
However, Y Nhi's appearance caused controversy when she wore metal armor molded to her body combined with a low-cut silk skirt.
The outfit helped Ý Nhi transform her image, but it also caused a lot of controversy. Besides opinions that the outfit helped Ý Nhi become more outstanding and individual, many viewers said that the outfit did not match the image and style of a beauty queen. Some comments said that the outfit was somewhat offensive and could easily cause misunderstandings.
Since her coronation, Ý Nhi has often appeared in gentle, discreet designs. Because of that, the audience thinks that the beauty queen is not suitable for such unconventional outfits.
Designer Ha Thanh Viet said the dress is part of a new collection inspired by space and the future. He used thin metal and faux metal to create a warrior-style costume. "Maybe it was because of the angle of the photo or the enlargement of the details of the costume that caused the misunderstanding or conflicting opinions," Ha Thanh Viet said.
After that, Y Nhi presented the outfit on the runway. The crew added wings to the front, expressing the message of overcoming all limits. Designer Ha Thanh Viet said: "In fashion, it is very common to create outfits inspired by warrior costumes, following the body's lines. When the outfit is presented in the show, the audience will have a different perspective."
Previously, in early November, Miss H'Hen Niê had taken photos of the outfit to promote the show. She also added wings to her chest instead of going topless like Y Nhi on the red carpet.
Previously, on the evening of November 21, Miss Ý Nhi returned home after studying abroad in Australia. In recent times, she has been traveling back and forth between Vietnam and Australia to ensure her study schedule and participate in many activities in her home country.
Huynh Tran Y Nhi was born in 2002 in Binh Dinh, with a height of 1m75. Before being crowned Miss World Vietnam 2023, Y Nhi was the runner-up in the 2022 Binh Dinh Student Charm contest.
At the end of 2023, Y Nhi announced that she would study abroad in Australia. Recently, she was announced as Vietnam's representative at the upcoming Miss World.
