Chelsea Fernandez dons Sarimanok-inspired national costume at Miss Cosmo 2025
Chelsea Fernandez of the Philippines secured a spot among the top contenders in the carnival costume segment of Miss Cosmo 2025, showcasing a stunning "Sarimanok"-inspired outfit.
The intricate costume, designed by Er Stephen Alvarado, features a gold sculpted bodysuit with vibrant wings and an ornate headpiece, inspired by the mythical Maranao bird symbolizing prosperity, guidance, and spiritual strength.
Fernandez's inclusion in the Top 17 of the carnival costume competition was a dramatic moment, as the initial announcement only listed the Top 15.
Her performance in the carnival costume category served as a strong comeback after she was unexpectedly excluded from the Top 5 in the Miss Cosmo 2025 swimsuit competition.
The Miss Cosmo 2025 pageant, the second edition of the competition, will be held on December 20 in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam.
Chelsea previously represented the Philippines in the Miss Globe 2022, where she finished in the Top 15.
