LOOK: Miss Canada shares photos of her in Dubai before Miss Universe 2018

Unknown to many pageant fans, Miss Canada Marta Magdalena Stepien visited Dubai before she flew to Bangkok, Thailand for the Miss Universe 2018 beauty pageant held last month.

Stepien made a quick stop to Dubai and visited some of its famous landmarks.

One of the things that the Canadian beauty queen did in Dubai back in November was to visit Filipino designer Michael Cinco, who eventually created the evening gown she wore in the competition.

It can be recalled that Stepien wore a nude colored fully crystallized gown with a sweeping train during the evening gown competition of Miss Universe 2018.

But aside from wearing Cinco’s creation during the said pageant, Stepien also appeared on Cinco’s fashion show during Arab Fashion Week last November.
