The royal blue gown a play on the beauty queen trope of wanting world peace took about three months to make, said Moe Kasim, who designed the costume.
And as the summit was about making peace, it was only natural to go with the world peace theme.
Though the June summit took place in Singapore, some residents werent sure how a dress featuring the flags of North Korea and the United States represented their country and posted disapproving comments on Twitter.
Miss Singapore to wear dress with image of Trump-Kim handshake.

From walking into a teen dressing room to joking about his obligation to sleep with contestants, Trumps a storied pageant creep
Donald Trump was forced to sell the Miss Universe Organization which also includes sister scholarship programs Miss USA and Miss Teen USA in 2015 after his incendiary comments about Mexicans drove away broadcasters NBC and Univision. But Trump owned the pageant for nearly two decades, during which time he would have had the opportunity to come into contact with nearly 4,000 beauty queens.
On the heels of the damaging videotape on which Trump and former Access Hollywood host Billy Bush salivated over Days of Our Live actress Arianne Zucker, and joked about sexually assaulting women, came allegations that Trump entered the Miss Teen USA changing room where girls as young as 15 were in various states of undress.

I live in New Mexico, a BLUE WAVE state, where tRump has deployed US Military troops to attack oppressed people, who are not dramatically different from his mother - an immigrant from Germany.
Where is the entire line of Trump clothing made?
Will Teflon Don tRump wear the same knee-pads THAT he wore to meet Kim Jong-un, when he meets self-appointed lifetime emperor and Dahlia Lama of China, Xi Jinping?

(33,643 posts)dressing rooms. RS here is playing fast and loose with the facts ...
It's 'fun' I suppose to rip the guy for having done so, but I'm pretty sure that's a fabrication.
There may be reason to suspect he entered a Miss USA dressing room, which is still F'd up ... but I've read no credible reports he entered a Miss Teen USA dressing room.
I'm kinda a stickler for 'facts' ... as some may have noticed

(15,235 posts)Was there a large number of sexual assault cases settled, after Trump agreed to pay-off his victims?
mr_lebowski
(33,643 posts)But that's a separate subject.
I actually did some research, and as best I can tell ... this whole 'went into the dressing rooms where minor girls were undressing' is based entirely upon his brag that 'he can check the merchandise if he wants' ... being interpreted by readers as meaning 'he went into the Miss Teen USA Changing Room' ... given that he 'owned' Miss Teen USA.
But there's never actually been any teen participants who've gone on record in any way, saying "Trump came into our dressing room when were in the Miss Teen USA Pageant" ...
And I rather seriously doubt he 'paid off' an entire dressing room full of teenage girls, from ALL OVER the world, and via these payoffs, got them ALL to keep quiet and never say they saw him do so ... AND their parents also all went along with it.
It's just not logical to me.
On top of that, he's the kind of dude that would've claimed, if he HAD done so ... that he 'had the right to do so' ... cause he was the 'owner'. Therefore, he owed nobody anything, and did nothing wrong. Don't you think?

(15,235 posts)How many rape cases did tRump law teams pay off, to try keeping his public image slightly clean?
And what color knee-pads will he wear to meet Xi Jinping?
Can he keep the same colored knee-pads for prison?

(15,235 posts)Jeffrey Edward Epstein appeared at his sentencing dressed comfortably in a blue blazer, blue shirt, jeans and gray sneakers. His attorney, Jack Goldberger, was at his side.
At the end of the 68-minute hearing, the 55-year-old silver-haired financier accused of sexually abusing dozens of underage girls was fingerprinted and handcuffed, just like any other criminal sentenced in Florida.
But inmate No. W35755 would not be treated like other convicted sex offenders in the state of Florida, which has some of the strictest sex offender laws in the nation.
Ten years before the #MeToo movement raised awareness about the kid-glove handling of powerful men accused of sexual abuse, Epsteins lenient sentence and his extraordinary treatment while in custody are still the source of consternation for the victims he was accused of molesting when they were minors.

Then, the song by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers played, called I WON'T BACK DOWN.

(47,412 posts)bragged about walking in on contestants dressing during Miss Teen USA pageants. Four contestants from the 1997 also accused him of walking in while they were dressing.
Tasha Dixon was 18 when she competed in the Miss USA pageant, winning the state crown.
Our first introduction to him was when we were at the dress rehearsal and half naked changing into our bikinis, Ms Dixon told CBS.
He just came strolling right in. There was no second to put a robe on or any sort of clothing or anything. Some girls were topless. Other girls were naked.
