National costume competition

edit

In this competition, the costumes are evaluated instead of the contestants. It is a competition showing the country's wealth embodied in the colorful and fascinating costumes made by Mexican designers combining the past and present of Mexico.

For the Nuestra Belleza México Organization, this event is very important because it discloses the creative work of the great Mexican designers and also selects the costume to represent Mexico in Miss Universe the next year. Also, some costumes are selected to represent Mexico in other beauty contests.

The winning costume designer received the "Aguja Diamante Award".
