Ly Qui Khanh burst into tears when Lan Khue's dress won the 'World Designer' award

The dress with the image of a burning flame by a Vietnamese designer was honored at the Miss World 2015 contest.

The World Designer Award was announced at the final night of the Miss World 2015 contest on the evening of December 19 in China. The dress that Vietnam's representative - Lan Khue - performed in the fashion competition won the award.

Designer Ly Qui Khanh said he burst into tears when he heard the good news. This was the first time he had designed a costume for a Vietnamese representative at Miss World.

Lan Khue's evening gown designed by Ly Qui Khanh won the "World Designer Award".

Ly Qui Khanh spent three weeks creating this dress. He chose yellow and dark red to highlight the idea of ​​a burning flame. "I hope the Vietnamese representative shines brightly like a flame in the Miss World 2015 contest. I want to give the beauty confidence through the dress," he said.

The material of the dress is Vietnamese silk. The designer steamed the fabric and then dyed it in a Western style. He said the dress does not look special, but that was the intention he wanted to convey. He predicted that the simplicity would make the Vietnamese representative stand out among the many elaborate designs that beauties from other countries chose to show.

In addition to the winning dress, Ly Qui Khanh also designed the outfit for Lan Khue to appear in the final night. This outfit was inspired by the beauty of a precious gem, sparkling in emerald green on a silver fabric background. The designer expressed that he wanted Lan Khue to shine in the final like the sparkle of the dress.

The dress Lan Khue wore in the Miss World final was also designed by Ly Qui Khanh.

The World Designer Award is a subsidiary award of Miss World each year. The contestants present dresses by designers from their countries. The organizers select the top 10 and vote for the best design before the final night. In 2014, this award was given to an Indian contestant.
