Binibining Pilipinas (abbreviated as Bb. Pilipinas or BBP; transl. Miss Philippines) is the oldest active national beauty pageant in the Philippines. Founded in 1964, it currently selects Filipina representatives to compete in one of the Big Four international beauty pageants—Miss International,^[2][3][4] as well as representatives to other international pageants, such as The Miss Globe.^[2][3][4]

Binibining Pilipinas is owned by the Araneta Group of Companies headed by Filipino business magnate Jorge León Araneta, the group's President and CEO. The BPCI Organization is spearheaded by Jorge's wife, national director Stella Marquez-Araneta, with Conchitina Sevilla-Bernardo, artist and entrepreneur, as co-chairperson.^[5]

Stella M. Araneta, Miss Universe semi-finalist, and the winner of the first Miss International beauty pageant in 1960 representing Colombia, is the chairperson of Binibining Pilipinas Charities Incorporated (BPCI), which had been the official national franchise holder of the Miss Universe Organization from 1964 to 2019, after it was passed on by its predecessor, Miss Philippines, which had been the franchise holder from 1952 to 1963.^[5]

The following are the Binibining Pilipinas titleholders throughout the years, including highlights of their performances in major and minor international pageants.^[2][3][4]

Gemma Cruz-Araneta, Miss International 1964, the first Filipina and Asian Miss International winner, was a product of the now-defunct Miss Philippines pageant (1952—1963), not of Binibining Pilipinas, when she won the Miss International 1964 title. Cruz, however, was in attendance during the Binibining Pilipinas 1965 finals, and passed on her crown to her successor under BPCI, Isabel Barnett Santos, who represented the country in the Miss International 1965 competition.^[6][7]
