While I am very optimistic that Mouawad will make a stunning crown (Some of their pieces look STUNNING, plus they have some world records like the world's most expensive bra) I am somewhat tired of Miss Universe always changing their crowns. Don't you think that for being the top beauty pageant in the world you would have a timeless crown that has been used for decades? I guess the closest thing that we are ever going to get to a timeless crown would be the Sarah Coventry crown.
I am also very sad to say goodbye once again to my favorite crown, The Mikimoto crown. F to pay respects.
If I was IMG, I would request a crown that can only be used during the crowning moments and a much less expensive replica version that can be used for photoshoots, events, and as a souvenir for the winner to have and take home. But a replica that actually looks like the crown, not a completely different version (like Mikimoto or The Peace crown)
Other than that, I can't wait to see what the crowns will look like. And even though it is very unlikely it will happen, I wouldn't be surprised if Mouawad decide to go above and beyond and break the world record for the most valuable tiara (which according to Guinness Book of World Records, the record for the world's most valuable tiara is currently held by Versace with an estimated retail value of 5 million dollars)
