Belarusian at Miss Universe Surprised with Her Outfit
New companion of Lukashenka Aliya Karotkaya appeared at the competition in a black and white striped set. The outfit was created by her mother — a designer and founder of the Kiali brand. In the comments, people joke about prison and demand freedom for zebras.

The Belarusian is participating in the Miss Universe competition, which is currently taking place in Puerto Rico. The winner will be announced on November 24, but one of Karotkaya's looks has already sparked discussion on social networks.
«Today I'm wearing a look created by my mother. And 99% of the looks presented by me at the competition are those created by my mother! I feel that her looks will bring me luck,» — Karotkaya wrote on Instagram.
But commentators did not appreciate the mother's costume:
«Freedom for zebras in Africa!»
«In the spirit of Beetlejuice.»
«This is a Halloween costume.»
«As if she just got out of prison,» — they write.
Special attention was drawn to the cap: it was also compared to prisoners' headwear. «Miss Correctional Facility,» — they called Karotkaya.
Aliya's mother is designer Diana Karotkaya. In 2025, she created the Kiali brand.
Aliya also appeared in her mother's clothing at events involving Lukashenka — she is part of the circle of girls who accompany him. Karotkaya regularly appears at Lukashenka's receptions and balls and supports his hockey team.
