@thphpowerhouse: AHTI5A 4 U - NATIONAL COSTUME FESTEJADA: Queen of Philippine Festivals Our Miss Universe Philippines Ahtisa Manalo steps onto the world stage carrying the heart of every Filipino celebration. Festejada is a reminder that our culture is not just worn — it is lived, shared, and carried with pride. From the traje de mestiza silhouette to the handcrafted piña, every detail honors the women who shaped our history. The skirt, built from more than 65,000 individual petals, brings together the stories of our greatest festivals — the lanterns of Pampanga, the colors of Pahiyas, and the blooms of Panagbenga. It is a tapestry of artistry that reflects the joy and creativity of our people. #MissUniverse #MissUniversePhilippines2025 #AhtisaManalo #AHTI5A #EmpirePh
