What Was Miss Universe Thailand Carrying in 17 Giant Suitcases?

For some of us, the dreaded scale at the luggage counter is a make-or-break moment. You've jettisoned every spare toiletry and useless souvenir to keep yourself under the weight limit, and when the moment of truth arrives we either exult in victory at having come in under the allowance or curse ourselves for our needless opulence and fork over our ancillary fee with barely restrained disgust.

Then there's Miss Universe Thailand Chalita Suansane, who didn't come to play games. She came to look fabulous, and if that takes 17 suitcases, so be it.

Checking in at just a shade over 660 pounds, Suansane may have slightly gone over her allotted weight, but she made up for it in social media chatter, as the Twittersphere became abuzz over her many, many bags.

So what was she carrying that required presumably every suitcase she owned? In an interview with Manila news source ABS-CBN, the 22-year-old said, "I think (I brought) 50 (dresses) or more," adding that she also brought a dozen pairs of shoes and various accessories. 

We're not one to tell any Miss Universes their jobs, but when you get to the point that you've lost track of how many dresses you've packed, you can probably stop there. But that's probably advice best kept for we who have to worry about getting our bags under the weight limit.
