What did Le Hoang Phuong say after the national costume competition at Miss Grand International 2023?

Just before the national costume competition at Miss Grand International 2023, Le Hoang Phuong caused concern among fans when she posted a picture of her legs with many bruises. This led many to believe that the costume, named "Dance of the Heavenly Dragon," had posed significant challenges for the Vietnamese representative due to its excessively large and cumbersome size.

Speaking to Dan Viet , a representative of the Miss Grand Vietnam organizing committee said: "The outfit worn by Le Hoang Phuong has been meticulously 'upgraded' to a height of 3.5m and a weight of 20kg. The designer and the Miss Grand Vietnam organizing committee have always strived to make this outfit more dazzling, more theatrical, and more impressive to the beauty pageant community."
