After waiting for over a year, Hannah Arnold, who was crowned in July 2021, is representing the Philippines in the 2022 edition of the Miss International pageant.
“I’ve been training since 2018, actually, so it’s not only a year and a half that I’ve been waiting for this, it’s been four years exactly. Finally, my dream is coming true,” she said during her send-off.
On December 7, the Miss International pageant announced the start of voting for its Top 15. Hannah is included in the top five leaders of the Asia and Oceania cluster.
The Miss International 2022 finals night will take place on December 13 at the Tokyo Dome City Hall in Japan. Hannah is competing in hopes of winning the Philippines’ seventh Miss International crown.

Hannah Arnold got all dolled up, so to speak, for her national costume in the 2022 Miss International pageant, as seen in a social media post by local beauty camp Aces & Queens on Monday, December 12.
Designer Manny Halasan worked with Hannah, 2021’s Binibining Pilipinas International, to craft a cornflower blue ensemble inspired by Hannah’s favorite toy – a Barbie doll wearing Maria Clara-style Filipiniana.
