The Miss World Australia 2016 search kicked off with a new beginning for the pageant. At the launch of the search for Miss World Australia 2016, the franchise of MWA was officially handed over to Deborah Miller from Nadasha Zhang. This was done on stage with the exchanging of the MWA crown.

Nadasha Zhang has managed to shape the Miss World Australia pageant beautifully, producing some amazingly talented winners over the years. With Deborah Miller taking up the responsibility now, we hope to see the legacy continuing effortlessly.

The official event was a brief one. Eight delegates were presented to give a hint of what the audience can expect from the selection process which continues nationwide in the coming months. The eight delegates modelled clothing by several Australian designers, culminating with gowns by Amy Taylor, perhaps a hint of what the winner may wear to the world event later this year.

Deborah wants to bring the same vigour and dynamism in the Miss World Australia, which she brought when successfully running the Miss Universe Australia pageant. The lady claims that she wants to see a Miss Australia winning the Miss World under her watch. Do you think now that the MWA is under Deborah Miller, we can expect an Australian win at the Miss World?
