Lastly, the Pinay beauty queen showed her sultry side in a fiery red backless gown and simply captioned her post, “PULA. I wish for bravery and grit on days when you feel like giving up.”

If you look through her Instagram feed, Rabiya's stunning looks formed the Philippine flag in a very creative and unique way.

In fact, this isn't the first time that the Ilongga beauty queen wore a costume inspired by the country's flag.

During the 69th Miss Universe pageant in Florida, Rabiya made headlines as she walked the international stage in her breathtaking Philippine flag-inspired costume, which featured huge angel-like wings in blue and red and three yellow stars.

On September 30, Rabiya will crown her successor in the much-awaited beauty pageant in the country, the Miss Universe Philippines 2021.
