A Polish woman from Łódź has won the Miss World 2021 beauty pageant held in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on Wednesday, organisers have announced.

Karolina Bielawska, a 23-year-old business student, received the crown from the previous Miss World, Jamaica’s Toni-Ann Singh.

The new Miss World said she would remember the “amazing” pageant “for the rest of my life.”

It is the second Miss World title for Poland, after Aneta Kręglicka was named the most beautiful woman on the planet in 1989.

The 70th global beauty event had been due to take place in December 2021, but was postponed at the last minute after several contestants tested positive for Covid-19.

In solidarity with Ukraine, which is fighting off a Russian invasion, the 40 finalists in Puerto Rico walked across the stage holding candles.
