Every queen needs a crown. For the Miss Universe, no object symbolizes the pageant more than its crown, gloriously worn by the winner as she soaks in the cheers and adulation of the crowd around her.

The crown has evolved over the years and pageant aficionados keep a keen eye on the crown as much as the pageant participants.
