Nakuha ng Thai beauty queen na si Anna Sueangam-iam ang puso ng pageant fans sa buong mundo dahil sa suot niyang evening gown na gawa sa pinagdugtong-dugtong na “used aluminum pull tabs of drink cans” at Swarovski Crystals.
Ayon sa designer nito na si Arif Jehwang, ang nakaka-inspire na kuwento ni Anna Sueangam-iam ang naging motibasyon niya sa paggawa ng evening gown.
Ibinahagi naman ng TPN Global Co. Ltd., ang organisasyon sa likod ng Miss Universe Thailand (MUT), ang iba pang detalye tungkol sa evening gown ni Anna sa official Instagram pageant page.
Mababasa sa caption ng post: ”You must not get stuck with murky surroundings you were born into, but do believe you have the power to change your own life for the better,” the inspirational quote by “Anna Sueangam-iam”, Miss Universe Thailand 2022, precisely reflects and self-defines her own significant characteristic.”
Si Anna ay lumaki kasama ang kaniyang ama na isang garbage collector, ina na street sweeper, at lola niya na isang madre. Kahit na binansagan siyang "garbage beauty queen," hindi naging hadlang sa Thai beauty queen ang pagningning sa Miss Universe stage.
”Persistence, tenaciousness and optimism within her have led her to a great success in life. It is the result of being brought up by a father who is a garbage collector, street-sweeper mother, and a virtuous nun who was Anna’s great-grandmother. Although she was called by some as ‘The garbage beauty queen,’ that never stops her from shining bright as a precious gem,” paglalarawan ng Miss Universe Thailand organization kay Anna.
