October 12, 2014 proved to be a momentous day at the Mall of Asia Arena, as beauty pageant aficionados witnessed the coronation of Valerie Weigmann as Miss World Philippines 2014.
As successor to the throne, Valerie will vie for the title of Miss World in December. Not without pressure to win, though, as Megan Young who was the Philippines’ representative last year managed to bag the Miss World 2013 crown- earning herself bragging rights as the first Filipino to win the title.
Valerie impressed the audience with her answer during the interview portion, when she was asked why she felt she should win the title. She emphasized that empathy and giving makes one truly beautiful. "I try to live my life in relation to others, by putting myself into other people’s shoes”, she said.

Early on, Valerie was already a favorite, as she won Miss World CamSur in Camarines Sur September this year.
As for literally putting Valerie- and the other pageant contestants- in their own shoes, the people behind Figlia did an excellent job at providing the official footwear for Miss World Philippines 2014. Valerie Weigmann is Miss Figlia for this year.
