Miss universe dispute
In August 1 of 2009 Bolivian officials stated that it could present a legal appeal to the organizers of Miss Universe due to the planned use of a typical Diablada wear by the Peruvian candidate Karen Schwarz. Pablo Groux, Bolivian minister of Culture, said that any use of the wear by Scharwz in the content would be an unlawful appropriation of Bolivian heritage and have menaced to bring the case to the International Court of Justice. El Comercio, a Peruvian newspaper, have mentioned that this is not the first time the diablada wear is shown in the contest and that it was María Josefa Isensee, a Chilean, that first used it in the Miss Universe contest. Peruvian foreign minister José Antonio García Belaúnde said that since the Diablada dress is of indigenous Aymara origin it can not be considered an exclusive of any of the particular countries where the Aymara live.
