Miss World Vietnam (Vietnamese: Hoa hậu Thế giới Việt Nam) is a national beauty pageant in Vietnam that has been held biennially since 2019. This contest was first started in 2014 by Elite Vietnam as (Hoa khôi Áo dài Việt Nam) and is now owned by Sen Vàng Entertainment as Miss World Vietnam.[1]
The pageant crowned the Vietnam representatives to compete in three of the major international beauty pageants: Miss World, Miss International and Miss Grand International.
The current Miss World Vietnam titleholder is Lương Thùy Linh from Cao Bang, who was crowned on Aug 3, 2019 in Danang.
History
In 2014, Elite Vietnam plans to hold a new beauty contest called Miss World Vietnam. However, the regulations of the Ministry of Culture - Sports and Tourism of Vietnam only allows the organization of 2 national beauty contest (which literaturely called hoa hậu contests) every year. Since two other hoa hậu competitions have been licensed (Miss Vietnam 2014 and Miss Ocean Vietnam 2014), the organizers named Miss Ao Dai - Road to the Miss World,[2] meaning "Hoa khôi Áo dài". Miss Ao Dai - Road to the Miss World 2014 was held on January 5, 2015.
In Vietnamese language, there are two ways of translation of the word "Miss" but two different meanings and representing two different titles, women who hold the title of hoa hậu have higher social ranking than ones who are called hoa khôi, as well as having more media influence and inspiration. In 2019, Miss Ao Dai - Road to the Miss World was renamed Miss World Vietnam (Hoa hậu Thế giới Việt Nam) organized by Sen Vàng Entertainment.[3]
