Notes

  • For the first time since 1955, the official Miss Venezuela competed at Miss World. Martina Thorogood was named 1st runner-up.
  • Due to her runner-up status, Thorogood had a contract with the Miss World organization, therefore she could not compete in Miss Universe, as previously planned. Organizers staged a small pageant called "Miss Republica Bolivariana de Venezuela" to select a delegate to Miss Universe.
  • Claudia Moreno (Distrito Federal) and Maria Laura Lugo (Costa Oriental) competed in Miss Republica Bolivariana de Venezuela. Moreno won the crown, while Lugo was the 1st runner-up.
  • Both Norkys Batista (Nueva Esparta) and Marjorie de Sousa (Dependencias Federales) became very successful actresses.
  • Andreina Llamozas competed in Miss International 1999 and was among the 15 semi-finalists.
  • Maria Fernanda Leon (Guarico) competed again in 2002 as Miss Portuguesa.
