It’s kind of a ridiculous choice, as gowns and dresses are the norm for this. I mean, a gown and a dress doesn’t exactly count as a costume by most people’s standards, but many of them made it work, such as the silver-and-gold-laden Miss Sweden, Alexandra Fribourg, who reflected her country’s Viking-filled past. The dress for Finland’s Lotta Hintsa was inspired by the Aurora Borealis and suitably has a lot of light blues and greens. The little bit of grid-patterned fabric that France’s Hinarani de Longeaux wore was in reference to the Eiffel Tower. And then there’s Brady bleeding red, white, and blue as a transformational robot. I mean, that’s what America is all about right?
I guess it would have been worse had she come out as an Abraham Lincoln-inspired version of Skids or Mudflap, rapping about freeing the slaves. Perhaps that’s the view of America that she is putting forth: “It can always get worse.”
