And it received good results, greatly welcomed by the mainsteam at that time. However, the success didn’t last for a long time. From the 1970s to the 1980s, this contest was protested by feminist, due to wearing bikinis as part of criteria. Then, this contest was halted for several years. In 1996, the competition was held in Bangalore, India. But the same thing happened again, as a dozen of Indian groups rejected it as a way of discriminating against women. In response, the organizers of the game claimed that they had raised about 300 million pounds for charity since 2000. In 2013, the Miss World contest was hosted in Indonesia, which has the largest number of Muslims. Criticism and disapproval reappeared. Finally, the organizers had to replace bikinis with one-piece swimsuits and sarongs, which were traditional clothes in the beach in Bali.
