At the end of the event, Maria Lourdes Gonzalez crowned Elizabeth Berroya as Binibining Pilipinas Universe 1992, Patricia Betita crowned Jo-Anne Alivio as Binibining Pilipinas International 1992, while Selina Manalad crowned Marina Pura Benipayo as Binibining Pilipinas Maja 1992.[2]

Starting this edition, the winners of the Binibining Pilipinas pageant will represent the Philippines in Miss Universe, Miss World, and Miss International after acquiring the franchise of Miss World. Gloria Diaz, Miss Universe 1969, crowned Marilen Espino as the first Binibining Pilipinas World.[3]

A few days before her departure to South Africa, Marilen Espino contracted an illness which barred her from competing at Miss World 1992. Due to this, Marina Pura Benipayo was sent to compete at Miss World, replacing Espino. Espino replaced Benipayo at Miss Maja International, although the pageant was not held this year. However, both Espino and Benipayo retained their titles as Binibining Pilipinas World 1992 and Binibining Pilipinas Maja 1992, respectively.[4]
