-No official pictures - fans were complaining about the lack of official swimsuit and gown photos (but 2015 didnt have them either). Most are not aware that Fadil is no longer with the org. It is interesting that there were no glamshots at all.

there were official ss and eg photos in last MU, and Fadil is not irreplaceable, there are a million better photographers, it is silly that MU can not hire some new, but as far as I know he wasn't even taking ss and eg photos, he was only hired for glam shoots.

Yes, Fadil was always referred to as the OFFICIAL photographer, but he never took anything else except the glamshots.
Then again, after the winner was selected he always took their official portraits!

National costume show will take place tomorrow after the preliminaries!

Thanks for the correction. This information comes from a friend of mine and not frome me. And yes I remember the glamshot in 2015

About Miss Universe 2017 in November. I never heard it to other people. But the announcement about hosting MU2017 might be on the final night as well of 65th Miss Universe

We need to wait for the official announcement

As I understand Miss Sweden's evening gown is a Project with Pictures of Children with different deseases. It is a Project designer Aviad and Ida is involved with. But maybe she will have yet Another EG for the finale I Think...? About using the same dress for NC , isn´t that good in this time to recycle ? ;-) eja

You've got a point here 😜

Btw the designer is the same who designed Germany's NC for Josi 2 years ago. The theme was the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.
