Miss Venezuela Ivian Sarcos won the title of Miss World 2011 in the pageant held on November 6, 2011 at the Earls Court Two in London. She was crowned by last year's winner, Alexandria Mills of the United States. She bested 112 other beautiful contestants from around the world.
Meanwhile, our very own Gwendoline Ruais was crowned 1st runner-up in the prestigious competition. She was also a finalist in the fast-track competitions Beach Beauty, Top Model and Beauty with a Purpose.
A lot of Filipinos were in the audience including the parents of Ruais. They were one of those with the loudest cheers, boosting our contestant's confidence.
Miss Puerto Rico Amanda Vilanova was 2nd runner-up.
The rest of the 7 finalists were Korea, England, South Africa and Scotland.
The rest of those who made it in the Top 15 were Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Spain, Zimbabwe, US Virgin Islands, Sweden, Italy and Indonesia.
