Miss Universe 2024: Indira Ampiot on the verge of disaster
Ce November 14thduring the preliminary evening, Indira Ampiot walked the stage in a magnificent tricolor outfit, designed by the Guadeloupean brand Manzel. The creation, made up of feathers and sequins, proudly represented the colors of France: blue, white and red. “We wanted to highlight strong symbols for the nation, such as the tricolor flag and the cockade, with an additional touch: the beret and a nod to the French rooster,” explains the brand in a presentation video.
However, the elegant outfit almost played a bad trick on him. One of Indira's heels got caught in the long train of her dress, causing her to become unbalanced. For a few seconds, the anguish was palpable, but the Miss quickly regained her balance, to the warm applause of the audience. (Video below)
