According to Miss Universe Thailand's Instagram page, this dress is called 'Hidden Precious Diamond Dress.' It is made using aluminum pull tabs of drink cans and Swarovski.

Anna Sueangam-iam shared the story behind this dress on Instagram and wrote. "This gown was inspired by the familiar surroundings of my childhood. Growing up with garbage collector parents, my life as a child was among piles of garbage and recyclables. This unique gown was purposefully tailored-made with discarded and recycled materials, namely the 'Can Tab,' to present to the UNIVERSE that what's considered worthless by many actually possesses its own value and beauty." She further also thanked everyone.

Take a look at her post below:

One person in the Instagram comments said, "This gown is so meaningful, and beautiful, and it shows that someone's trash can be someone's treasure. @annasnga_1o well thought, and I hope you win!" A second person said, "Keep going. I'm cheering you up." A third person wrote, "Beautiful and very good story. Cheer up for Anna."
