Miss Mexico, Venessa De Leon emerges Miss World 2018

A new Miss World 2018 has emerged, and this year it’s Miss Mexico Venessa De Leon.

Dressed in a beautiful off-shoulder ivory gown, Miss Mexico was adorned in a beautiful smile and crowned by the Miss World 2017, Manushi Chhillar.

The revised format of the Miss World pageant this year had the organizers select a top 5 with a contestant representing each region of the world.

Sadly, Miss Nigeria, who made it to the top 30, did not make it past that, with Miss Uganda winning the Miss World Africa 2018 crown.
