Chile has sent 41 representatives, has had three Miss World Semi-Finalists and One Quarter-Finalist. In 1998, Daniella Campos won the title of Queen of the Americas and in 2011 Gabriela Pulgar won the Talent Competition
The first Miss World Chile was selected from a small group of contestants by an Argentinian company that had the franchise for five South American countries.
During the early 80's and to the late 90's, Channel 13 transmitted Miss Mundo Chile Semi-Finals and Finals.
From 2011-2013, the Chilean representative was selected under the Miss Chile organization.
