MANILA, Philippines — Aside from taking home the most coveted Miss Universe crown, the pageant winner will also enjoy several perks from becoming the title holder.

Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach on Monday morning (Philippine time) passed on her crown to Miss Universe 2016 Iris Mittenaere of France at the Mall of Asia Arena. She is the third to wear the crown worth $300,000.

The Miss Universe crown made by jeweler Diamonds International Corporation was first worn by Miss Universe 2014 Paulina Vega of Colombia and was turned over to Wurtzbach. Miss Universe Organization (MUO) President Paula Shugart explained that Mittenaere’s predecessor cannot take home the crown by tradition.
