Ahtisa Manalo was a vision in orange during the Miss Cosmo 2024 national costume competition, with the Philippine representative channeling a beloved komiks character. 

Her costume, inspired by the iconic mermaid Dyesebel with its shimmering scales and other intricate details, is a masterpiece by local designer Ehrran Montoya.

"It captures the essence of Filipino pop culture, with flowing ocean-inspired fabrics that evoke the beauty and grace of this mythical sea creature. The design is a celebration of both the rich heritage and the contemporary allure of Philippine comic book legends," read the costume's description on Manalo's Instagram page.

"More than just a symbol of myth and identity, Dyesebel represents the power of storytelling in shaping our identity and connecting generations. Pop culture encapsulates the spirit of our shared heritage, blending tradition with contemporary artistry. It deserves to be celebrated for its unique ability to unite people, inspire creativity, and keep our cultural legends alive in the modern world."

Manalo was chosen to represent the Philippines in the first-ever Miss Cosmo, following her second runner-up finish in Miss Universe Philippines 2024.

The Miss Cosmo 2024 coronation night will be held on October 5 in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
