Bryoni Govender in El Salvador

Miss Universe South Africa, Bryoni Govender, has started her preparations in El Salvador ahead of the significant event scheduled for 18 November in this Central American country. The beauty queen achieved her runner-up title in August, following the Miss South Africa pageant.

Her journey to Miss Universe began when Natasha Joubert, the winner of Miss South Africa, became ineligible to participate, having represented South Africa in 2020. As a result, the legal queen was allowed to represent her nation on the international stage.

Dress pays homage to Indian culture

Govender’s representation of South Africa is notable for another reason – she is the first South African of Indian heritage to compete at the competition since Kerishnie Naiker’s participation in 1997.

She unveiled her national costume and farewell gown, designed by KwaZulu-Natal designer Casey Jeanne. Her national costume pays tribute to her Indian-South African heritage, adding a unique cultural touch to the Miss Universe stage.

She is now participating in all the events leading up to the big event, as seen on the Miss Universe SA TikTok page.
