History

Miss Vietnam is the biggest beauty pageant and the first nationwide beauty contest after the unification of Vietnam. Before that, there was also a South Vietnamese Saigon-based beauty contest named Miss Vietnam 1955 Công Thị Nghĩa became the first titleholder of the contest as well as the first national beauty pageant titleholder in Vietnamese history.[2] In 1965, Miss Vietnam 1965 was held with the coronation of Thai Kim Huong.[3] The after-unification contest Miss Vietnam was initiated and organized by Tien Phong newspaper, called "Miss Tien Phong Newspaper", starting from 1988 and is held every two years. The first person to hold the title is Bùi Bích Phương.[4] The contest was officially renamed as "Miss Vietnam" in 2002.

During the period from 1988 to 2000, beauty queens did not participate in international beauty contests.[5] In 2002, they were sent to participate in Miss World.[6] However, from 2008 to 2014, due to many issues surrounding the beauty queens, they could not attend Miss World.[7] From 2016 to 2020, they continued to participate in Miss World.[8] Until 2022, Miss Vietnam will attend Miss International.[9]

Notes

  1. ^ Due to some bad reputation before, Ky Duyen was not allowed to attend Miss World 2014, instead Nguyen Thi Loan was chosen.
  2. ^ Because Miss Vietnam 2012 Dang Thu Thao refused to participate in the Miss World 2012 and Miss World 2014 contests instead of Miss Ky Duyen. Therefore, Miss World 2012 was attended by the first runner-up of Miss Vietnam 2010, Hoang My, instead.
  3. ^ Miss Ngoc Han twice refused to participate in Miss World 2010 and 2011 for personal reasons.
  4. ^ According to the rules of the Miss Vietnam contest, participants must have a high school diploma, but Miss Thuy Dung did not have one, so she seriously violated the rules and was stripped of her right to participate in Miss World.
