Notes

Post-pageant notes

• Mary Jean Lastimosa competed at Miss Universe 2014 in Doral, Florida and finished as one of the Top 10 finalists.^[15]
• Mary Anne Bianca Guidotti competed at Miss International 2014 in Tokyo, Japan where she was unplaced.^[16]
• Yvethe Marie Santiago competed at Miss Supranational 2014 in Krynica-Zdroj, Poland where she finished as one of the Top 20 semifinalists.^[17]
• Kris Tiffany Janson competed at Miss Intercontinental 2014 in Magdeburg, Germany where she finished as Second Runner-Up. Prior to being called as Second Runner-Up, Janson and Miss Thailand, Patraporn Wang, tied when the supposedly five finalists are being announced, making them six finalists instead of five. Due to this, Janson, together with Wang, both won the Miss Intercontinental Asia & Oceania award.^[18]
• Parul Shah competed at Miss Grand International 2015 in Bangkok, Thailand where she finished as Third Runner-Up. Early in the competition, Shah won the Best in National Costume award.^[19]
• Both Hannah Ruth Sison and Kimverlyn Suiza competed at Binibining Pilipinas 2015. Sison finished as First Runner-Up, while Suiza finished as Second Runner-Up.^[20]
• Pia Wurtzbach also competed at Binibining Pilipinas 2015 where she was crowned Binibining Pilipinas Universe 2015. She competed at Miss Universe 2015 in Las Vegas, Nevada and won. Wurtzbach is the third Miss Universe from the Philippines.^[21]
• Nichole Manalo later competed at Binibining Pilipinas 2016 and was crowned Binibining Pilipinas Globe 2016. She competed at Globe 2016 and finished as Third Runner-Up. Initially, Manalo only finished as one of the Top 10 finalists but a week after the pageant, Manalo, together with Natasha Joubert of South Africa, was proclaimed as Third and Fourth Runner-Up respectively. The reason why the Third and Fourth Runners-Up were announced late is that the emcees of the pageant weren't able to read the envelopes in time.^{[22] [23]}
• Laura Lehmann later competed at Miss World Philippines and was crowned Miss World Philippines 2017. She competed at Miss World 2017 in Sanya, China and finished as a Top 40 quarter-finalist. Lehmann is also among the five winners of Beauty with a Purpose, part of the Top 10 for the People's Choice award, and one of the winners of the Head to Head Challenge.^{[24] [25] [26]}
