This is not the first time Michelle wore an upcycled denim piece by designer Kristine Ordinario
Apart from her charm and wit, Michelle Dee is loved by many pageant fans for her sense of style. Always putting Filipino design talents in the spotlight, the reigning Miss Universe Philippines can be spotted wearing the chicest terno or something more urban, a vision of modern Filipino style.
At a press conference during Thai beauty queen Anntonia Porsild's visit to the Philippines, Michelle was spotted wearing a contemporary look designed by Kristine Ordinario. The ensemble features denim belts turned into wide-leg pants and a tube top. Completing the look is a patched denim jacket. In an interview with Manila Bulletin Lifestyle, Kristine shared that she used pre-loved jeans the Filipino beauty queen's look.
"My friend used to sell thrift clothes and I got some pre-loved denim jeans, which then I repurposed to create the denim jacket and belts ensemble," the designer said. "The jeans were cut into strips and made into individual belts before I assembled them for the tube top and pants... This look adheres to my design aesthetic which focuses mainly on structured silhouettes incorporated with hardware materials."
This is not the first time Michelle wore a piece designed by Kristine. During her time competing at Miss Universe 2023, she donned one of her upcycled patched denim jackets in El Salvador.
When asked what makes Michelle a perfect muse for her brand, Kristine said, "Michelle Dee carries an air of sophistication and powerful energy much like my brand."
