Specifically, the crown was engraved with 21 golden South Sea pearls, 53 white South Sea pearls, 530 white gems, and 1,388 golden gems, the contest’s organizers announced at the press meeting.
Unlike previous editions, Miss Vietnam 2020 will be seated on a throne and be awarded a gold-plated scepter and a bouquet of porcelain flowers in addition to the crown.
Another distinction of this year’s event is that the first and second runners-up will also be presented with crowns.
