I’m an easy-going bum when it comes to updating my blog, which is exactly how I like it because my life is full of distractions. Not great if you’re easily distracted. With the Mister International 2007 series of posts, I feel committed. :-P And I’m ignoring most other things, like answering emails.

So here’s the last item from the programme for the Main Event , or technically it’s the first, but I’m playing it in reverse. This is when all the contestants first stepped out on stage.

National Costume is never strictly “national costume”. It’s more of a creative interpretation of the country’s traditional costume, thrown into a blender with icons and symbols that is unique to them. Or none of the above. I don’t know. I don’t pay enough attention to beauty pageants.

Lawron ‘Lawrence’ Leung of Canada: I’m not sure when latex pants became the national costume of Canada, but then again, a tuque and parka (or so says this page) is equally “eh?”

Mister International 2007 – Fashion Show

I’ve made so many posts about Mister International 2007 that it has its own category now! And I’m only a little past halfway done!

Meet Edric Ong. We love him because he knows how to clothe hot men and make them smoulder even more. I just bet he looked at Jong Sung and went, “You’re obviously wearing something that’ll show off that chest.”

As I’m working backwards, we’re in the Fashion Show category now before the top 10 were selected. Ergo, you get all of them here. Enjoy.

Mister International 2007 – Swimwear

A warm Sarawakian hello to those of you who popped over from Critical Beauty, and thanks to USA’s National Director Rafa Delfin for linking. I’ve had more hits today than I did in the whole of last month! O.o;

Well, aren’t you in luck today? I decided to stick to working backwards, so next on the list is Swimwear. If you’re partial to drooling, please take precaution and protect your keyboard or whoever’s shoulder you’re peeking over.

If you hope to model, your body is your asset. Swimwear is where we see the most skin on stage, which must be quite a daunting task unless you look like… well, some of these guys.

One interesting observation: Some of the men are completely relaxed and comfortable strolling down the catwalk with nothing but a triangle of spandex between them and the world. Some are not, but hide it behind a smile. Some looked much better in a 3-piece suit, and some I won’t mind seeing with a little less.

I tried including some witty commentary but I fail because I am only a woman… with too many of these kinda photos in my HD. Enjoy.
