But it's not just any marsala red gown. Designed by Benj Leguiab IV, Alyssa's evening gown number featured three stars and a sun, a nod to and inspired by the Philippine flag.

According to Benj, he made the gown in less than a week!

It's similar to the attention-grabbing royal blue number, which featured a cleverly placed Philippine map on the back, that Alyssa wore during the Miss World Philippines pageant in October. It was also designed by Benj Leguiab IV. — Jannielyn Ann Bigtas/LA, GMA News
