The Vietnam Beauty Fashion Fest (VBFF) held its 16th edition in Hai Phong, where Miss World 2022 Karolina Bielawska made a striking appearance. The event brought together a host of beauty queens, including Tô Diệp Hà, Quế Anh, Emoura Phạm, Khánh Như, and Đinh Y Quyên, alongside 111 contestants from the Miss World pageant.

Tô Diệp Hà, who attended the festival in a flowing maxi dress adorned with rose patterns, expressed her admiration for the contestants' skills. She noted that preliminary competitions like Top Model allow judges to better assess each contestant's performance, stage presence, and overall potential. This year's lineup was praised for its uniform quality, with each contestant showcasing distinct beauty and personality.

Miss Thiên Ân captivated the audience in a silver evening gown that hugged her curves, featuring a mermaid tail and sparkling fabric that caught the light beautifully. Her evolving beauty stood out among the international contestants at the fashion show. Emoura Phạm also made a notable impression in a chic white outfit, characterized by elegant cut-outs at the waist and an off-shoulder design that highlighted her figure.

Quế Anh donned a sophisticated white evening gown with a stylish off-shoulder bodice and delicate cut-out details at the waist, creating a soft and graceful silhouette. Meanwhile, Khánh Như shone in a mint-colored gown with a sweetheart neckline and off-shoulder sleeves, embellished with sequins, which added a touch of luxury to her appearance.

The event took place at the Dragon Ocean International Tourism Area, a venue that will host activities for the 73rd Miss World competition in Hai Phong, Vietnam. Á hậu Đinh Y Quyên opted for a modern white ensemble that deviated from traditional evening wear, featuring a stylish shirt with a deep neckline and ruffles that softened the overall look, accentuating her tall and elegant stature.

In addition to the fashion showcase, the Miss World 2026 contestants engaged in various cultural activities in Hai Phong, including crab fishing, planting trees, and kayaking, as part of their exploration of the local culture and nature.
