It’s hard to come up with just a Top 15 again so I decided to stop the count at 17. There are some very fabulous creations here but I also need to assess the way the candidate wore the same.
And so, here are my favorite Evening Gown shots for Miss Universe 2011 in alphabetical order, as photographed by Patrick Prather:
Miss Angola Leila Lopes
Miss Aruba Gillain Berry
Miss Australia Scherri-Lee Biggs
Miss China Zilin Luo
Miss France Laury Thilleman
Miss Greece Iliana Papageorgiou
Miss Haiti Anedie Azael
Miss Korea Jung So-ra
Miss Malaysia Deborah Henry
Miss Netherlands Kelly Weekers
Miss Panama Sheldry Saez
Miss Paraguay Alba Riquelme
Miss Peru Natalie Vertiz
Miss Philippines Shamcey Supsup
Miss Ukraine Olesya Stefanko
Miss USA Alyssa Campanella
Miss Venezuela Vanessa Goncalvez
I can go out on a limb here and pick my Best in Evening Gown because she is just ahead of the rest. My top choice is Miss Panama Sheldry Saez. If I had to pick 4 others for a Top 5, I will add Miss Greece Iliana Papageorgiou, Miss France Laury Thilleman, Miss Peru Natalie Vertiz and Miss Angola Leila Lopes.
Who are yours? 🙂

Where is The Miss Turkey? Racist??
Fuccuda, I’m not a racist, and my apologies should you think of me as such. You see, there are 89 ladies vying for the crown. My main objective is to pick the ones who did really well based on how I view their individual presentations. Prior to the event, Turkey (together with the reps of El Salvador and Albania) were already under my radar since I was told by colleagues who watched the rehearsals that these three could do well. But during the show itself, at least 24 other contenders outperformed them from my point of view. I can make a posting of the top half (where Turkey is included), but that wouldn’t make for a competitive analysis. I could be dead wrong by not including her in my Top 24, but that’s the way pageant forecasts go.
