If you were going to host an event, what would you wear? Of course, something attention-getting and eye-catching enough to stand out among everyone else.

That’s what Tyra Banks did when she hosted The Flawsome Ball last Thursday. She certainly didn’t give anyone a chance to stand her up by choosing to wear this mesmerizing white and nude mermaid down with illusion stripes:

Even next to all of the models, her mother, Caroline, or young supermodel and Victoria’s Secret Angel Chanel Iman, Tyra Banks, still managed to steal the scene:

This gown made by Filipino designer Francis Libiran was made for someone like Tyra. It’s a big gown with lots of style, and you need someone with just as much personality to pull it off!

We think Tyra Banks looks fabulous in this dress, but what do you think? Is Tyra Banks in this Francis Libiran gown hypnotizing or horrible?

Francis Libiran is a designer whose pieces were featured on an episode of ‘America’s Next Top Model,’ and that’s where Tyra must’ve gotten in touch with him. We love that ANTM has become a platform for new models and new international designers, photographers, make-up artists, and the like.
