Kieu Duy missed out on the Top 20 of Miss International 2025.
Vietnam's representative, Nguyen Ngoc Kieu Duy, did not make it into the top 20 of Miss International 2025, despite impressing with her performance of calling out her hometown name and placing in the top 3 for national costume.
On the afternoon of November 27th (Vietnam time), the Miss International 2025 final took place in Japan. Vietnam's representative, Nguyen Ngoc Kieu Duy, was not called into the Top 20, ending her journey in this beauty pageant.
Kieu Duy's mark at the final night
Although she didn't advance far in the competition, Kieu Duy left a special impression on fans. Right from the opening segment, she drew attention with her creative self-introduction: "Nguyen Ngoc Kieu Duy – Vinh Long, Vietnam!". This was the first time a Vietnamese representative directly introduced her hometown on the Miss International stage, an action praised by domestic audiences for its subtlety and uniqueness.
In addition, her elaborate "Nine Dragons Hidden in the Clouds" national costume, with its intricate design and exquisite patterns, also earned her a place in the Top 3 Best National Costumes.
The transition moment for Miss Thanh Thuy
The final night also marked the end of Miss Thanh Thuy, the previous winner from Vietnam, for her one-year term. During her meaningful final walk, Thanh Thuy made a special choice by wearing a traditional ao dai instead of an evening gown. This action was highly appreciated by fans for honoring Vietnamese culture in its entirety on the international stage.
