- Dominican Joheirry Mola won Miss World 2026 in Nha Trang, Vietnam, defeating Spain’s Elisabeth Reynés in the final.
Joheirry Mola ended the Dominican Republic’s long wait for a Miss World crown on Saturday in Nha Trang, Vietnam.
Facing 111 contestants from around the world, Mola won the 2026 title after beating Spain’s Elisabeth Reynés in the final.
But her story goes beyond the crown. The Dominican contestant has worked in classrooms as a teacher, in the media as a communicator and on the runway as a professional model.
That combination of education, communication and modeling shaped the confidence with which she approached one of the most demanding moments of her career.
