Miss Namibia 2023, Jameela /Uiras looking beautiful as she gears up for the Miss Universe competition on November 15 in El Salvador, she unveiled her extraordinary National Costume that pays homage to Namibia’s unique heritage and her own remarkable journey.
The costume is a breathtaking representation of the Diamond Oryx, a desert-dwelling animal that symbolizes resilience, strength, and adaptation to harsh environments. Not only is the Diamond Oryx, a remarkable creature in its own right, but it also holds a special place on the Namibian Coat of Arms, making it a powerful symbol of the nation.
Why did Jameela choose the Oryx as the inspiration for her National Costume? She revealed that after losing her mother last year, she had to learn to be resilient and believe in herself. The Oryx, with its ability to thrive in the unforgiving desert, mirrors her own journey of resilience and self-belief. It’s a heartfelt choice that reflects her personal growth and strength, she told NBC.
The artistic brilliance behind this magnificent costume comes from the talented minds of Mwatile Kapolola and Nadia Wilson. Their work has brought the Oryx to life in a way that captivates the eye and speaks to the heart. The intricate details and design elements of the costume are a testament to the rich culture and natural beauty of Namibia.
Last month, Jameela /Uiras was awarded a car sponsored by Pupkeywitz Toyota. Which she will be able to keep even after her reign comes to an end. Miss Namibia 2023 will be the first queen to retain her car beyond her year of reign. This is a meaningful gesture that not only recognizes her achievements but also symbolizes the changing face of the Miss Namibia Pageant.
