Huong Giang changed her evening gown at the last minute in the MU semi-final, accepting to go against the majority.

On the evening of November 19 (Vietnam time), the atmosphere at Miss Universe 2025 became exciting when more than 120 contestants entered the Semi-final round - the decisive round in selecting the brightest faces to advance to important milestones such as Top 30, Top 12, Top 5 and Top 3 in the Final night.

Right from the first minutes, the stage attracted attention when the contestants simultaneously performed in swimsuits, showing off their strong curves and confident catwalk skills.

Immediately following was the evening gown performance, where representatives from many countries presented elaborate designs, honoring the gorgeous beauty and demeanor of an international beauty queen.

In the final round, Huong Giang chose a see-through mermaid design by designer Phan Huy.

The dress uses nude - metallic black as the main tone, with the upper body decorated with crystals in a teardrop motif, creating a sparkling effect when the stage lights shine on it. The color gradient panels along the body of the dress are cleverly arranged, helping the beauty queen's figure look slimmer and more graceful.

The moderately deep V-neck design helps her show off her sexy bust and slim collarbone, while the thin shoulders create a harmonious overall look and increase femininity. Huong Giang wears a classic low bun and chooses minimalist diamond jewelry, creating a luxurious look, like a vedette walking straight onto the international red carpet.

However, besides many compliments, there are also opinions that this evening gown design does not really stand out compared to the Miss Universe stage colors, and is even somewhat safe when placed next to the elaborately decorated dresses of many other representatives. There are also opinions that the dress is drowned in photos but in real life it looks beautiful and unique.

However, Huong Giang's charisma when performing helped her score strong points. Each catwalk step was decisive, the moderate hip movements following the skirt's flow created the feeling that she was "floating" on stage. The camera pans capturing her confident moments immediately spread on social networks, causing the fan community to continuously share and leave positive comments.

A notable detail is that before the competition night, Huong Giang's team announced that she would perform in a red dress by designer Hua Le Duc Anh. However, close to the broadcast time, the beauty queen suddenly changed her mind and chose Phan Huy's outfit.

She shared before: "Up until the rehearsal day, Giang was still hesitant, but in the end, Giang made her choice. Giang thought this would be a choice that went against the majority. I didn't think many people would choose the same as Giang." The statement shows that Huong Giang had carefully considered to make the choice that she thought was most suitable for her personal style in the semi-final night.

Currently, according to statistics from international beauty sites, Huong Giang is one of the contestants with the most media appeal at Miss Universe 2025.

Her Instagram account has reached 4.3 million followers - the highest number among this year's contestants. This advantage became even more evident when she was crowned Miss International Queen 2018 in Thailand, helping Huong Giang's image spread more widely among the international beauty fan community.

With strong support from the audience and stable performance through the competitions, Huong Giang is expected to create a memorable mark at Miss Universe this year.
