Japanese beauty in recent years at Miss Universe may not have made much of an impression on international audiences. However, at the time this contest was copyrighted by Donald Trump, many Japanese queens made many golden achievements for their country.

According to Missosology , among Asian countries, Japan entered the beauty industry the earliest. In 1959, Kojima Akiko was crowned Miss Universe and became the first woman in this country to win an international beauty title.

In 1998, Japan officially launched the Miss Universe Japan contest, aiming to find international representatives. The competition, chaired by Frenchwoman Inès Ligron, is considered the largest arena in the country. Since then, this country has continuously searched for top-notch beauties, creating a lot of pride for the country.

48 years after Kojima Akiko's victory, Japan was once again honored at Miss Universe when the Miss Universe title belonged to Riyo Mori. At that year's competition, she made a strong impression with her decisive military-style catwalk and Asian-looking face.

In addition to Riyo Mori, other Japanese representatives who achieved high results at Miss Universe are Miyazaki Miyako (4th runner-up Miss Universe 2003) and Chibana Kurara (1st runner-up Miss Universe 2006).

Miyako Miyazaki is known as the "assassin" from Japan because she possesses extremely beautiful beauty, an Asian face, a beautiful body, a confident charisma and radiates the aura of an assassin.

Perhaps what makes this beauty queen from Japan most memorable to beauty audiences is her evening dress. Specifically, at that year's Miss Universe contest, Miyako Miyazaki boldly wore a Celine dress in the evening contest.

The dress was personally chosen by her and sent from Paris before she left for Panama to compete in MU 2003.

Initially, the then National Director of Miss Universe Japan, Ms. Ines Ligron, was also quite concerned about this choice, so she asked a British designer in Japan to sew an extra cloak and told Miyako if she entered the Top 15. then use it.

Not only was she the most popular contestant of the audience that year, Kurara Chibana was also "judged" by the judges right from the beginning when she answered the interview fluently in four languages. However, this beauty still regretfully lost the beauty queen title to the representative of Puerto Rico - Zuleyka Rivera.
