In the evening gown round, the number of competitors was once again halved. The highly debated topics during the two rounds of question and answer were narrowed down to three women: Palacios, Porcilde, and the second runner-up, Australia's Moraya Wilson.

In the final round, the contestants were asked about a day in their lives they would choose to spend, and Palacios, an 18th-century British philosopher and feminist Mary Wollstonecraft admirer, spoke passionately about breaking boundaries and providing opportunities for many women. "Today, there are no limitations for women," she expressed through an interpreter. Miss Colombia, Camila Abella, and Miss Puerto Rico, Carla Guelfi, were among the top five finalists, while Spain's Athena Perez, Miss Congeniality of the competition, secured a spot in the top 10.
