At the end of the pageant, Mary Jean Lastimosa crowned Pia Wurtzbach as Miss Universe Philippines 2015, Mary Anne Bianca Guidotti crowned Janicel Lubina as Binibining Pilipinas International 2015, Kris Tiffany Janson crowned Christi Lynn McGarry as Binibining Pilipinas Intercontinental 2015, Yvethe Marie Santiago crowned Rogelie Ardosa Catacutan as Binibining Pilipinas Supranational 2015, and Parul Shah crowned Ann Lorraine Maniego Colis as Binibining Pilipinas Tourism 2015. The 1st Runner-Up was Hannah Ruth Sison while Kimverlyn Suiza was named 2nd Runner-Up.

A few months later, Colis was appointed by BPCI to represent the country in the upcoming Miss Globe pageant in Canada, thus earning the title as the first Binibining Pilipinas Globe 2015. Her predecessor when she was crowned as Binibining Pilipinas Tourism, Parul Shah was also appointed to represent the country i Miss Grand International 2015 in Thailand prior to the acquisition of the local franchise. Shah earns the title as the first Binibining Pilipinas Grand International, despite the fact that Annalie Forbes, Binibining Pilipinas 2014 runner-up was the country's first representative to the pageant.

Prior to the appointment of Colis, BPCI decided to discontinue the title of Binibining Pilipinas Tourism prior to the cancellation of the Miss Tourism Queen International pageant.

This pageant produced the third Miss Universe titlist for the Philippines, Pia Wurtzbach, thus ending the 42-year drought for a Filipina Miss Universe.[2]

This batch has produced 5 international titleholders: Miss Universe 2015, Miss Globe 2015, Miss International 2016, Miss Globe International 2016, and Reina Hispanoamericana 2017.
