The top ten semi-semi-finalists included beauties from Great Britain, India, US, Ukraine and the Dominican Republic. Participants from Costa Rica, China, Indonesia, Puerto Rico, Nicaragua and Switzerland had made it into the top 16.

Clad in a stunning sequinned evening gown, Isler was the cynosure of all eyes. A trained flamenco dancer, Isler worked as a talent on the Venevision TV Network. The 62nd Miss Universe says her greatest role model is her mother because despite the diversity she and her family faced growing up, her mother stayed strong and taught her that there was always a way to make ends meet.
