Giulia Zanoni, representing La Unión, was crowned Miss Universe El Salvador 2025 on Friday, September 26 at Palacio Tecleño in Santa Tecla.


The 20-year-old international relations student succeeds last year's winner Florence Gisselle Garcia and will represent El Salvador at Miss Universe 2025 in Thailand this November.

Alva Echegoyen of La Paz finished first runner-up and was crowned Miss International El Salvador 2025. She will head to Japan, also this November, for Miss International 2025.

Alba Rivera of San Miguel, Karen Segura of Santa Ana, and Gloria Sandoval of Usulután were named the second, third, and fourth runners-up, respectively.

Completing the Top 7 was Sairi Rivera of Morazán who was crowned as El Salvador's representatives for the next Miss Mesoamerica pageant.

The new Miss Universe El Salvador is no stranger to pageantry. She previously competed in Miss Grand International 2024 and made the Top 20.
