A bit of history and interesting facts

There is no doubt that the final Miss Russia 2020 ceremony will not be inferior in its scope and level of organization to past contests, but while waiting for it you can recall interesting competition events of past years and related facts:

The first Miss Russia competition was held in 1927 in Paris, where the winner was chosen from among the Russian immigrants living in France. Such an unusual choice of venue can be explained by the numerous Russian diaspora. Two years later, Russian girls living in any of the European countries were also allowed to participate.
In 1931, Marina Chaliapina, daughter of the great singer Fedor Chaliapin, received the title of winner. The girl later fell in love with the married Italian Luigi Freddy - the future organizer of the Venice Film Festival. The couple officially formalized the union only after 17 years of relationship.
The competition was suspended with the outbreak of World War II in 1939 and resumed only in 1989.
Over the entire history of existence, it was conducted three times under the name "Miss USSR" (in 1989-1991).

The winner in 1991 was Ilmira Shamsutdinova from Saratov. At the time of her participation, she was only 15 years old.
Oksana Fedorova is the only winner of Miss Russia (2001), who also managed to become the first beauty of the Miss Universe contest (2002). But the girl did not enjoy the victory for long, because she was deprived of the title due to her refusal to travel around the world with charity missions under the auspices of the competition.

More than 50,000 girls from 85 constituent entities of the Russian Federation take part in castings annually.
The importance of “Miss Russia” in the international arena is emphasized by the existence of exclusive rights to represent the country at the international competitions “Miss Universe” and “Miss World”.
The winner puts on the luxurious crown of the Mercury jewelry company, the prototype for which was the diadem of the wife of Emperor Nicholas II, Alexandra Fedorovna. Precious stones in the color of the Russian flag form asymmetric patterns, and the center and the "domes" of the crown are decorated with 203 pearls. The approximate market value of the crown is $ 1 million.
