The outfit was inspired by bamboo and rattan, symbolizing traditional craft villages in Vietnam, and was chosen by the runner-up to wear in the final round of the biggest beauty contest on the planet.
 |
| After many months of launching the contest to design traditional costumes for the Vietnamese representative at Miss Universe 2016, the 5 best designs were introduced not long ago. From the 5 designs, the final costume was selected based on the total score of the judges, the audience's votes and Le Hang's personal vote. |
 |
| The official design chosen for Le Hang to wear in the final night is called Nang May, conceived and executed by Thai Trung Tin. Nang May takes the idea of beauty from simplicity, folk materials, and familiarity of traditional weaving villages. |
 |
| The fishing traps are shaped like rice flowers. The art of weaving expressed through costumes proves the potential for improvement and development of the long-standing traditional Vietnamese handicraft. Thai Trung Tin went to the Philippines last weekend to support Le Hang to make the most impressive appearance on the final stage. |
 |
| Coming in second place in the national costume selection process for Vietnam’s representative is contestant Nguyen Huu Binh’s design Hon Viet. The work is based on the image of the conical hat of Hue. The wings of the costume simulate the image of a bronze drum. |
 |
| Mau Nghi is the second design of Thai Trung Tin. |
 |
| Contestant Pham Lam My's design was inspired by Hue Royal Court robes and porcelain mosaic art. |
 |
The design named Phoenix Dance was conceived and executed by Nguyen Duc Hai. |
