^^ Miss Australia wears the so-called "National Costume" (sic), which seems to be a tacky distortion from a traditional Spanish dress. In other words, I would say it is in the antipodes (never better said) of good taste, but we already know that modern fashion designers worldwide are basically crazy. It's not her fault. Besides, the girl is very likeable:



Anyway, the winner is gorgeous:



And now I see this picture of her, that famous Van Morrison's song comes to mind:

With our, our hearts a-thumpin'
And you, my brown eyed girl
You my brown eyed girl...

But let me quote in her honour four lines from a great rhymed rock song in her (and mine, and also AwwSugar-Azúcar's) mother tongue. They're a kind of "postmodern poetry":

No quiero estrella errante,.......I don't want a wandering star,
no quiero ver la aurora;..........I don't want to see the aurora;

quiero mirar tus ojos........
I just want to look at your
del color de la cocacola.........coke-coloured eyes.

Fito & Fitipaldis: Por la boca vive el pez (trans.)
