The Miss Universe organization plans to debut a new crown this Thursday at 7:00 p.m. Puerto Rico time. The unveiling serves as the centerpiece for the pageant’s 75th anniversary celebration.
Executives, former winners, artists, and other public figures are expected to attend the event. The ceremony will reveal the design inspiration and the manufacturing process behind the new piece.
The current winner, Fatima Bosch, holds the title for 2025. Her crown, titled La Luz del Infinito, was presented in Mexico in 2024. It was handmade by the Filipino jewelry house Jewlemer. The piece features gold plating and 23 golden pearls.
Raul Rocha, the owner of Jewlemer, stated that the La Luz del Infinito is one of the most expensive crowns ever created. He did not disclose a specific monetary value for that piece.
The 2023 to 2024 crown was named Force for Good. It was designed by Mouawad, a company based in Geneva, Switzerland. Mouawad has partnered with the organization since 2019.
The previous design, The Power of Unity, was worn by the winners from 2019 through 2021. That specific tiara contains 993 gemstones, 110.83 carats of blue sapphire, and 48.24 carats of white diamond. Its value is estimated at $5.3 million.
