Miss World Guyana 2019, Joylyn Anita Conway, is proudly representing Guyana at the 69th edition of the Miss World competition which commenced on November 20 and the grand finale on Saturday, December 14 in London.
She will be competing with representatives from 130 countries for the coveted Miss World title.
Conway arrived in London two weeks ahead of the commencement of Miss World 2019 competition where she completed her media tour and final training/preparation with top trainers in the UK. Prior to her EU media tour, Joylyn was humbled to have started her training in Guyana and grateful to have met and trained with some of Guyana’s best.
She departed Guyana on October 18 and would have spent about a week in New York as part of her USA media tour where she met with members of the diaspora, made several appearances, conducted interviews and continued some preparation to enhance her media/training skills for the international competition.
The Guyanese representative is prepared, overjoyed and excited to represent Guyana on the international stage where she presented her Beauty with a Purpose project, STEM GIRL GLOW.
This unique project reflects Joylyn’s passion for science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).
“GLOW” was created by upcoming artist, Chelsea Ramotar. For the Top Model competition, Miss Guyana wore STEM-inspired gown, titled “CIRCUITRY” designed by Guyana’s own, Randy Madray.
One of the highlights of the STEM-inspired theme was Guyana’s national dress, dubbed the fabric of the Guyanese people and is the first of its kind in Guyana and the Caribbean. This fully customised and digitally printed dress was printed by Impressions Inc, Guyana’s top marketing/promotions company and designed by Randy Madray.
In keeping with the STEM theme, Guyana’s talent performance was a contemporary dance to Leona Lewis’s Footprints in the Sand. In addition to this, it touched on our Guyanese culture in reaching unity, economic growth and transformation.
With all the preliminaries on the back burner, all eyes will be on the grand finals on Saturday evening.
