On Instagram, the Philippines’ bet posted photos at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 on Wednesday morning. She looked absolutely chic in her all-red outfit made up of a leather coat with a fur collar and cuffs, plus knee-length boots and black cat-eye sunglasses.
Celeste was surrounded by suitcases bearing her name, the Philippine flag, and the title Miss Universe Philippines.
“This is it Philippines!” she wrote in her caption.
The Miss Universe Philippines organization said in their post, “We are sending all the good energy your way!”
Ahead of the competition, Celeste has shared a glimpse of her pasarela.
