I’ve been watching Miss USA and Miss Universe since 1973 - never missed a year. There are by far more elegant and timeless gowns not featured in this video. Only one passed the test for me - as the best evening gowns ever. To each their own, but this list has a lot to be desired.
My ABSOLUTE favorite gown in the 29 years I’ve watched pageants is miss South Dakota 2016 an AMAZING white an blue ombré designer gown that reportedly cost thousands it’s not known if it was borrowed or actually purchased for her? So stunning☺☺☺👍👍
For me it was the 2nd half of the 80's through the 90's. Before that everything just looked the same and plain. And now there are good dresses, but some are just so awful with so many cut outs or the slits so high that they may as well not have the dress. I agree with some on the list, others I thought, mah I've seen better, and others I would have tossed in the shreader, but we all have opinions on them.
Lol who curated these gowns? The only beautiful gown i see in this video is shandi fennesey's which is giving real lady liberty moment. But then again we all have different taste
They are certainly missing a few... Miss Texas USA 2011 gown was also one of the best... Miss Tennessee 2007 Miss Oklahoma 2008 Miss Oklahoma 2010 Miss Georgia 2016 Miss Oklahoma 2015 Miss George 2016
Agree. Miss Universe has better gowns. One of the main reasons is because Miss USA partnered with Sherri Hill and forced the ladies to wear those gowns for finals. The ladies couldn’t bring in with other designs from let’s say The Philippines or other fashion brands/designers.
@@lilytsui3015 I wish someone had the guts to tell Sherri Hill that she needs to work on her design skills. The colors are not flattering.The shapes are not flattering. The designers in other countries make better gowns for cheaper.
@@AmyNguyen-cl5yz completely agree! I can’t imagine Rbonney winning in a Sherri Hill dress. Thank goodness some Filipino designer borrowed her two gowns for Miss Universe!
She was my favorite too! I remember liking her at Miss Teen USA 2006 where she failed to place and then going to Miss USA 2011 where she made a big comeback and almost won the title!! She was my favorite to win Miss USA 2011!
The fact that Chelsie Smith, Carol Gist, Kenya Moore, Brooke Lee, Crystal Stewart, Tiana Griggs, Megan Pinckney, and others werent mentioned at all in this vid says alot. No beautiful black women AT ALL. And yes this is a color issue and im making full awareness of it 😡😤
I’d put Shawn Weatherly and Courtney Gibbs on this list.

3:15 Miss Stairs USA
My god in those times the scenography was so crazy
8:27 Unbelievable that she didn't pass to the Top 5, she is one of my favorites too
EXACTLY😢
They pass d ugly nevada instead of her because of home audience

SHE IS, I was really surprised that she didn't make the top 5😢
The style of the gowns is constantly changing. But the elegance and confidence is still present!
0:18 This is future NFL sportscaster Jayne Kennedy.
2007 Rachel Smith
2004 Shandi Finnesey
2011 Alyssa Campanella
2013 Margaret Mccord
The best of the best!❤
Who selected these gowns? I mean, 2015 OLIVIA JORDAN (Oklahoma), that gown was a total WOW, not the gowns you chose...
Nothing beats the 80s and the 90s pageants back then we're fabulous

4:52 Goddess ♥
Bad Bad taste! And to call it of all times! I agreed with only 1!
Morgan Woolard 1RU Miss USA; Miss Oklahoma 2010 should be included
Alabama 2000 hands down.
Simpler but every bit as lovely were the earlier gowns. Jayne Kennedy of Ohio is a Greek goddess
They are certainly missing a few... Miss Texas USA 2011 gown was also one of the best... Miss Tennessee 2007
Miss Oklahoma 2008
Miss Oklahoma 2010
Miss Georgia 2016
Miss Oklahoma 2015
Miss George 2016
Julie Hayek ?!? Tina Mitchell...highest gown score ?!? Beth Hood?!?
My favorite was Miss Oklahoma USA 2010
Whoever chose these should be fired. Only Missouri's blue tan and Arizona's velvet black deserved to be here
0:03 : Beginning with Blue Gown, and 8:55 : ending with Blue Gown...
You missed Alabama in 2000. It scored really high.
Are they the real Best in Evening Gowns during their respective years of competition????
6:19 Beautiful!
And Miss Nevada 2012 🥺
The gown in actually repeat itself, but the hairstyle and the makeup is totally makes dramatic and magical changes the entire look...!!!
All time best gown is Tennessee 1999.
North Dakota 2014 is one of the most iconic with that green dress 💚
None of these gowns were that good…

Rian Fernandez. He’s famous now. He’s dressed multiple pageant contestants.
5:50 One of my favorites, although I didn't like her catwalk.
She was my favorite too! I remember liking her at Miss Teen USA 2006 where she failed to place and then going to Miss USA 2011 where she made a big comeback and almost won the title!! She was my favorite to win Miss USA 2011!
Bad taste haha 😂😂😂 totally left out Olivia Jordan, Erin Brady, Olivia Culpo
Iowa and Nebraska were stunning
And so was Arizona, Tennessee and of course my home state, Illinois
Miss usa 2011 amazing! Back 😢
you guys forgot Beth Hood, Mary Margaret McCord, and Tiana Griggs
Also Lindsey Jo Harrington, Crystle Stewart, Rachel Smith,..

But don't forget Miss USA 2009, she is black girl, honey...!
@@viantzpradz4771 Miss USA 2009 was Kristen Dalton which she isnt black. Plus the top 15 didnt have any black delegates to be selected either
No Olivia Jordan?!
