Summer is in full swing, and so is the Miss Universe Philippines pageant! This 2023, the competition is hotter than ever with 38 ladies flaunting what they got and making strong cases for the coveted crown. Just yesterday, April 10, the much-anticipated swimsuit challenge commenced. Ahead, in no particular order, we list down 10 of our best picks.
1. Michelle Marquez Dee, Makati
Making a strong comeback to the pageant is Michelle Dee, who slipped into a blindingly stunning metallic two-piece. It's high-waisted fit, plus the cut-out on its one-shoulder top totally made her sizzle!
2. Lesly Sim, Quezon Province
Lesly Sim's entry was all frills and all thrills. Strapped around her figure was a neon green triangle 'kini that perfectly embraced her figure.
3. Christine Opiaza, Zambales
Upping the ante of Christine Opiaza's cobalt blue ensemble was a dangerously sultry cut-out on her tanga. A risk that has definitely paid off in our eyes!
4. Jannarie Zarzoso, Agusan Del Norte
Proving that a maillot can totally have some edge to it was Jannarie Zarzoso's geometrically-cut purple look.
5. Pauline Amelinckx, Bohol
Pauline Amelinckx is back again, and she's shutting things down with a bedazzled pink suit and a netted shawl wrapped around her head.
6. Alexandra Bollier, Bacoor City
Flaunting her interesting set of tatts alongside her banging bod was Alexandra Bollier in a red one-shoulder maillot.
7. Airissh Ramos, Eastern Samar
Going for a similar style was Eastern Samar's Airissh Ramos. Her one-piece was done in two panels, rendered in cheerful, sunset-inspired hues.
8. Shayne Glenmae Maquiran, Capiz
This curve-flaunting, rust-toned number totally showed off each of Shayne Maquiran's curves. Its deep v-neck and knotted side-details surely added some interest to things.
9. Emmanuelle Vera, Cebu Province
Barbiecore fever is here to stay, thanks to Emmanuelle Vera's hot pink two-piece that had a statement-making chest peek-a-boo.
10. Angelique Manto, Pampanga
Staying true to her low-key but high-impact aesthetic, Angelique Manto turned up the heat in a sliky green triangle suit.
