No prom gown? No problem! Miss Bulgaria offers gown to a Pinay who needs it

Oh Miss Bulgaria, looks like you’ve won the hearts of Filipinos with this simple post. 

21-year-old beauty queen Violina Anchev said that she wants to give the gorgeous blue gown by designer Sherri Hill to a Filipina who might need it for prom next month. 

“I would like to give as a present my Miss Universe Gown to one of you that really want it and need it I want to give the dress to a girl in need that can’t buy a dress for her prom the next month,” she wrote on her Facebook account. 

“Please write me a personal message for details. I am leaving soon, so please hurry up,” she said.

As of writing, the post has earned more than 21,000 shares and 120,000 likes, 

Miss Bulgaria didn’t specify her size, but we’re pretty sure that the gown can be easily altered. 

Most Miss Universe contestants will soon be flying out of the country. Iris Mittenaere of France was crowned the new titleholder.
