The coronation of Miss Universe 2013 will take place on 9 November. The contestants will be judged in three categories: swimwear, evening gown and personal interview.

Though the Miss Universe contestants will officially compete in two of the three categories of the pageant during the preliminary competition, a few pre-pageant events have already provided a preview to the swimwear and evening gown rounds.

While the National Gift Auction event provided a preview of the beautiful evening gown ensembles the contestants will show off at the preliminary round, Yamamay swimwear photo shoot saw them stun in exclusive Miss Universe collection by the Italian lingerie maker.

Meanwhile, the contestants have taken part in the Miss Universe National Costume Show in which they flaunted their national costumes, featuring cultures of 86 countries on one stage.
