Shreyaa remains to be the crowd favorite wearing one of the most ”Iconic National Costume” in the theme Asian American Dragon Eagle Avenger. For which, Shreyaa chose to work with the designer Melvyn Noronha known for his original stunning creations. The outfit personified in the colors of the American flag and gold for royalty, it features a dragon with Eagle heads and wings. Red represented the struggle and the pain Asians have survived, especially after the pandemic; the blue represented the service offered by Asians to America in Medicine, Technology, Service, Fashion, lifestyle and art. The white represented the peace and harmony that is needed to honor the constitution of the American Dream. “America is the land of the free and the home of the brave, yet in recent times Asians in pursuit and passion for the American Dream have faced hate,” expressed Shreyaa. Through the Mrs. Universe platform, Shreyaa initiated a movement to Revive, Renew and Resound Asian Love.

In honor of Sia, Shreyaa’s talented 10-year-old daughter, the costume also featured fantasy dragons. These dragons represented the Asian additions to the American diversity in terms of food, natural therapies, fashion and creativity. The costume also featured the 2 Asian wonders of the world: the Taj Mahal and the Great Wall of China, to represent the Asian markets and businesses in America, which Shreyaa supported through her reign.

The skirt was styled in a reverse Asian style popcorn holder to represent the Asians actors in Hollywood and while the costume is made with metal, neoprene, Indian cotton, Chinese textile and American diamonds; the costume’s amalgamations, powerfully stand as a dramatic stop of Asian Hate and a powerful beginning of Asian respect, because America is powerful when we humanly united.
