Emoura Phạm competes in Miss Grand International 2026 semi-finals

Emoura Phạm, representing Vietnam, competed in the Miss Grand International 2026 semi-finals held in Bangkok, Thailand, on October 7. The event featured nearly 80 contestants participating in swimsuit, evening gown, and national costume segments.

Following social media feedback regarding her initial gown choices, Emoura Phạm made a last-minute change to her evening wear. She performed in the ‘Fire Phoenix’ gown designed by Phạm Đăng Anh Thư for the brand JoliPoli. The red, orange, and gold metallic design was intended to symbolize rebirth and strength.

Earlier in the competition, she participated in the national costume segment wearing ‘Vinh Quy Bai To,’ a design inspired by traditional paper horse-making villages and Giám Mã folk paintings to honor Vietnamese cultural heritage. Her swimsuit performance was noted for its energetic choreography and confident stage presence.
