.

From 1956-2002, the pageant would start with the contestants wearing dresses. Then they would wear their swimsuits. In 1972, after the swimsuits they dressed in Provincial Costumes. From 1972-1988, the winner of best national costumes would be use in Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss International. Then they used the same dresses they used for the opening. They would pick the semi-finalist. The semi finalist would show the evening. Then they picked the quarter-finalist. The quarter-finalist was asked a question. Sometimes there were small entries so semi finalist would show the evening and would be asked question at the same time. They picked five finalists and crown and sashed the Misses Dominican Republic and sashed the runner-ups.

In the pageant in 1995, candidates representing Muninipalities started entering because the pageant started a program that searched for beautiful young women who were poor to enter the beauty pageant with out paying entry fees. The charity was called El Sueño de una Chica Bella which was made by the director. They selected the poorest ones to enter to have a better life. Besides entering they got $3,000 Dollars or $106,000 Dominican Pesos to each of them. They were the only to represent a Municipality they were found. This last until 1997. Before municipalities were represented, but only one to three could enter representing any municipality. They had represented the province and the dependencies they were born in. The candidates that represented the Dominican communities had to be born in the Country.
