SAO PAULO -- In the Miss Universe competition, it's understood the candidates are among the most beautiful women in the world. But that convention doesn't always apply. Just take a look at some of the evening gowns.
The preliminary round of the competition is likely the most important in the contest. This is when the judges select the top 15 semifinalists, whom the world will get to meet during Monday, September 12's global broadcast. For more details, please visit the complete Miss Universe 2011 coverage.
AOL Latino was on hand for the two-hour-plus preliminary competition at Credicard Hall in São Paulo, Brazil, where the 89 beauties paraded in their chosen swimsuits and evening gowns.
Unfortunately, some of the contestants were either poorly advised on what to wear or seemed to forget that they were at a gala event and at which judges were observing them under a veritable magnifying glass, to determine the next Miss Universe.
I wonder what the writer(s) had on when they exercised their self-appointed duty as fashion police! People are always criticizing other people for their own personal financial gain!
What's next for these women? Well Jennifer Hawkins is now a multi-millionnaire and an icon in her native Australia. Like with anything you are responsible for your success or lack of it.
Yes, some of those dresses were atrocious, but many that were marked "worst" were beautiful! German and Denmark come to mind as very pretty and there were others, too.

Was Lady Gaga consulted on these outfits? Or, did she design them?
