Gone are the days when the cut of pageant swimsuits are so conservative that the lower portion almost comes across as a hot pants hybrid or bermuda short if you will. The evolution of our favorite two-piece swimwears dictates that it should keep up with the times, hence, gradually revealing portions of the women’s upper thigh that almost do not leave much to the imagination of the viewer – straight or gay.
So it came as a shock (disappointment to some) that the oldest beauty competition in the world would succumb to the pressure of the host country’s religious policies (which I respect in favor of faith equality), thereby eventually mandating that Miss World 2013 will have the ladies covered in sarong during the much-awaited Beach Beauty event. As I have stated in an earlier post, they will have to be contented with maximizing the minimal exposure and showing as little skin as possible while exuding sexiness.
My point is this. However which way you call a sarong – be it beach cover, tapis (in Tagalog) or a draped/wrap-around skirt of thin printed cloth – will it change the way a candidate would wear and play around with it? Given that Miss World is a dog-eat-dog survivor contest where outshining weaker participants is the rule of thumb, I doubt it if we won’t see a limelight-hugger potentially “streaking” (read: strategize a convenient or accidental falling-off of the garment) her way to the delight of everyone around (and online). She could score low for doing so, but the deed will have already been done. And the newsworthiness of it all established.
How on earth can one distinctly stand out in a sarong (and in a sea of more than a hundred contestants) without adjusting the cleavage area with a little more push-up action from under the booby area or draping the same while consciously making a big chunk of the thighs constantly peep with every step, pose, turn and swirl?
Okay, I don’t want to start babbling now. Your turn, dear readers.
