Notes on Miss World 1995 Contestants:

• Zambia last competed in 1992.
• Bermuda and Lithuania last competed in 1993.

Withdrawals:

• Nigeria's contestant, Toyin Enitan Raji, was forced to withdraw due to political reasons. She received threats after Nigeria's military regime executed nine political activists a week prior to the contest, despite being awarded Miss Personality on 16 November.

Replacement: Ukraine's original representative, Vlada Litovchenko, winner of Miss Ukraine 1995, was unable to participate as she was married with a child. Nataliya Shvachiy, the 2nd runner-up of Miss Europe 1994, replaced her.
