Last night, 22-year-old Jimena Navarrete of Guadalajara, Mexico, nabbed the title of Miss Universe 2010 after back-to-back wins by Venezuela at the Las Vegas-held pageant. Hosted by Bret Michaels and Natalie Morales—judges included supermodel Niki Taylor, Olympic figure skater Evan Lysacek, Jane Seymour, Criss Angel, and William Baldwin—Navarrete was crowned wearing an asymmetrical red satin dress by Sherri Hill with oversize chandelier earrings and a red gemstone-studded bracelet by Diamond Nexux Labs.  “I chose a red dress because this year Mexico is celebrating 200 years of independence, and this color has a lot of meaning [to Mexican culture],” Navarrete said. Click through the gallery to see more of the gown’s details, plus her other looks from last night’s ceremony, including her sexy swimsuit!

The drees wore by Miss Mexico was not by Sherri Hill it was by Benito Santos a mexican fashion designer from Guadalajara.

Actually it is a Sherri Hill design, but the dress is just a knockoff. See Miss USA Kristen Dalton’s dress by Sherri Hill and several others by Sherri Hill that this dress appears to be 99% inspired by. Check the blogs and other chatter on the Internet and you will see everyone assumed it was a Sherri Hill when they viewed it on the telecast.

No way! Sherri Hill dresses are copies of others. She’s like the forever 21 of couture dresses.
